Globalization is defined in the dictionary as: to make global, especially: to make worldwide in scope or application. Therefore, political globalization is the worldwide spread of political ideas and customs. I think that is a fairly accurate description, but it does not cover why there is a trend of political globalization, or why it is important. What draws others to try to copy what one nations’ government has done. You must also consider what could happen if the world becomes a truly globalized society. This spread of political ideas and processes could lead to a positive or to a negative end. Much has been done that has lead to the betterment of many people, but at what cost? I would like to discuss the potential benefits and disasters that could evolve from political globalization.
