GLOBALIZATION ECONOMIC
Manfred B. Steger (2014)
GLOBALIZATION
definition of globalization as the According to Shangquan
expansion and intensification of (2000), economic globalization
social relations and
refers to the increasing
consciousness across world time
interdependence of world
and space implies that there are
various forms of connectivity. It is economies as a result of the
a multi-dimensional growing scale of cross-border
phenomenon involving trade of commodities and
economics, politics, culture, services, flow of international
ideology, environment, and capital, and wide and rapid
technology. spread of technologies.
Moreover, the flow of international capital can be observed in foreign direct
investments (FDI), a type of investment in which a company establishes a business in
another country for production of goods or services and still takes part in the
management of that business. A good example of this is Toyota Motor Philippines
Corporation which is a subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation based in Toyota, Japan.
The International Monetary fund (IMF) defined economic
globalization as a historical process representing the
result of human innovation and technological progress.
It involves the increasing integration of economies
around the world, particularly through the movement of
goods, services, and capital across borders.
Economic globalization can be traced through the Silk
Road, an old trade route that connected Asia, Africa, and
Europe.

• The process of "making the world
economy into an 'organic system'
by extending transnational
economic processes and relations
to more and more countries and
by deepening the economic
interdependencies among them."
(Szentes 2003)
Boyer and Drache (1996) admit that ‘globalization is redefining

the role of the nation-state as an effective manager of the


national economy’ , but refuse the hypothesis of uniform state

policies and conceive the state as the main shelter from the
perverse effects of a free market economy. It is, therefore,
misleading to assume that globalization has relegated the

nation-state and its policies to an obsolete or irrelevant status;


governments instead ‘are acting as the midwives of

globalization’ (Brodie, 1996).

Ohmae (1995) argues that the
nation-state has ceased to exist as
the primary economic
organization unit in the global
market.
As a result of transforming the
national economy into a global one,
Reich (1999) posits that national
products, technologies,
corporations, and industries
become obsolete. San Miguel
Corporation and Jollibee Foods
Corporation are good illustrations
of this effect.
International Monetary
System or IMS
In history, there were three major IMS:

1. The gold standard


Gold as a basis for their money's value. 3. The European
Monetary System (EMS)
2. The Bretton Woods
System System to unite their currencies and promote
economic cooperation.
Used the U.S. dollar as a common
currency, and they created institutions like
the World Bank.
As actors of economic globalization, the
world is now confronted with a number of
ongoing debates as to whether economic
globalization unites or divides the world.
Economic globalization fosters universal
economic growth and development

Globalization creates mutual dependence

MARKET INTEGRATION
History

After the Second World War, almost all countries around the world faced the great challenge of
bringing their feet back on the ground.

As a substitute to the unsuccessful League of


Nations, the United Nations (UN) was established
on October 24, 1945.

Primarily, it was tasked to promote international


cooperation and to restore international order.

Global market integration
Global market integration did not
happen overnight.

Harvey (1990) sees that cities and


countries were able to extend their reach
beyond borders and patterns of trade and
technology because of developments in
shipping and navigation.
The integration of the global market started when big American
corporations began to emerge after the Second World War with the rise of
new conglomerates.
Later, Japan and Europe followed suit. Japanese global automobile
corporations like Toyota, Nissan, and Isuzu took off after the giant American
companies flourished. These companies prospered as the primary and
global makers of trucks for the Japanese military (Dower, 1992).
Renault automobiles, a French multinational automobile manufacturer, was
also used to help in the military post- war operations. The rise of American,
Japanese, and European global corporations paved the way for the further
development of international trade.

Introduction
Although some scholars like Appadurai and Ohmae said
that globalization has replaced the function and
jurisdiction of nation-state. Nation-states can
manipulate competitive advantages with international
and political issues, transnational civil society
organizations and multinational companies.
Globalization has, in away, reshaped the role and
functions of nation-state as governing bodies in their
particular territories.

among its members. Additionally, it mediates
any arising trading issues or conflicts.
Internationalism
Is anchored on the opinion that nationalism should be outrun because links that bind
people of different countries are more powerful than those that disconnect them
(Anora, 2014). Moreover, in order to avert wars, Immanuel Kant (1795) stated that
agreements among nations must be reached.

Bringing Human Rights
In 1948, UN was responsible for bringing human rights into the realm of

UN protects human rights through scrutiny and oversight of reported
situations and international agreements.
Addresses genocides and raises awareness about them.
Promotes and mobilizes for action related to human rights.
Governs the advancement of the Responsibility to Protect at multiple levels:
conceptual, institutional, political, and operational.
Functions of United Nations
Delivering Humanitarian Aid
UN is responsible for coordinating responses to emergencies and supports
rapid humanitarian response for people affected by natural disasters and
armed conflict.

Upholding International Law


UN settles legal disputes referred to it by the member-states.
It also accords advisory opinions on questions that are of legal nature
submitted by legitimate UN organs and particular agencies.
Functions of United Nations
Promoting Sustainable Development
The Millennium Development Goals was set to promote sustainable
development.
In 2015, this was changed into the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
This collection of 17 global goals covers social and economic issues
including poverty, hunger, health, education, global warming, gender
equality, water sanitation, energy urbanization environment, and social
justice.
Challenges of
Global Governance
In terms of knowledge, UN, is underappreciated regarding how its convening capacity
and mobilizing power are utilized to help funnel and consolidate knowledge from
outside and ensure its discussion and dissemination among governments.
The contrasting moral structures of social behavior in different member-states
complicate the formulation of a normative standard that can be applicable to all.
In formulating propositions, problems occur when only the member-states are heard.
UN belittle the helping hand of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and the
global public opinion. Sometimes, recommendations are not executed.
Institutions can also be places where ideas are cornered and left behind. The
modality and processes for enforcing compliance with international norms and laws
are not present. In fact, some UN staff members violate, cheat, and challenge them.
