Student contributer Nora looks at a 30 mark Edexcel Globalisation and the state question- whether globalisation has been exaggerated

Zara Dove looks at the global politics essay question whether globalisation is bad for the environment.

Across the world we’re seeing governments and popular movements come to power that are opposed to globalization. Why? In this third lecture in INET’s “Economics For People” series, Ha-Joon Chang explains the backlash to globalization.

Economic globalisation is the process by which the world's economy becomes more closely connected. This can lead to the greater transnational flow of goods, services and capital. Economic globalisation is doing more harm than good as it can leave the already rich even richer, while also leaving the poor behind. The poor do not reap the benefits of economic globalisation as much as the already rich do, and globalisation can be considered as an unbalanced system.
