28. "Globalization is dead"

Globalisation increasing, deepening and broadening of the interconnected of the world in every walk of life. Globalisation is not only restricted to economic aspect only. It incorporated almost all aspects of society like political, economic , cultural and social. Globalization is like a flow and process which but gives increasingly networked world.global connection have been thickening but the significance of thickening remains contestable.It fundamentally deals with flows. the kind of flows are Ideas, capital, commodities and people.(definition)

Globalisation is like a flow.Then, can we consider that it is phenomenon of the contemporary world only and was not present in the past. If it was not present in the past then definitely there are some forces which emerged recently. The two dimensionality of the process is economic integration facilitated by technology. The increasing internationalization of marketing, production and distribution of the goods. The internet and Integration of the citizens across borders uniting the world into single, lucrative, but brutally competitive market place. these processes are ever changing in pace and intensity. we can perceive and compare that the pace is slow or slower but it can not be stopped completely. Globalisation is never dead but the processes are dampened by some factors which need to be discussed and worthy of critical thought.(Thesis)

The recent economic crisis and afterwards protectionism in world trade and exchange of commodities. The protectionism is at peak when 90 percent of the exports from the least developed countries have to compete against 'some kind of subsidized rival. The capital and  hot money related volatility of the banking and financial sectors made the national markets wary of each other. The main drivers of change are exhaust of energy and settling down. (subthesis-1)

The migration wave were both cause and effect of the Globalization. Now the borders are closing.humanitarian crisis of migrants looming large from war torn and riot affected countries. Migration have changed the mood due to anti immigration policies of the developed world under influence of right wing conservatives.(subthesis-2)

Hopes for Doha round are almost dead . UN body is not able to stop war ,terrorism,piracy and trafficking etc.The global institutions to bring the globalization in effect are ineffective.The climate change negotiation are not result oriented.(subthesis-3)

Globalisation and the ideological positions are changing.like the tranformationalist say that globalization as having both negative and positive consequences, and also both homogenising and hybridising impact plus emergence of identity based defences. Homogenization and hybridisation here related to cultural dimension of the globalization. for example In India Pizza cannot replace the dosa and jeans and kurta are weared in combination.(subthesis-4)

There is almost opposite and a counter wave of Anti-Globalization exist. it seems that wave have considerable force to slow down the process and atleast direct it. the major actors of this wave are national liberation factions, environmentalists and left wing parties.Anti globalization is not against Globalization per se but against certain aspects of it. (subthesis-5)

After studying the various aspects of globalization and its counter wave we can conclude that Globalization as a process is historical,continuous and variable in its pace. Social change is in inevitable ,Globalization is part of it or not will always remain a critical question with supporting view and counter view. Hope lies in the selective adaptation and adoption of the phenomenon for the betterment and enlightenment of humanity.(reinstatement and conclusion)
