4. What is Globalisation? Princess Diana’s Death: An English Princess, with an Egyptian boyfriend, crashes in a French tunnel, driving a German car, with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whisky, followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles; is treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines. This is information is sent to you by an Australian using American software technology and you’re reading this on a Taiwanese projector, from a Korean computer, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported by Pakistan lorry-drivers, unloaded by Indian workers, and trucked to you by an older Greek man… That, everyone, is Globalisation.

Interconnection – the idea that we are connected to people and places that were previously distant and unknown. Shrinking of space – the idea that distances are less important. Far-off places are now within easy reach. Speeding up of time – the idea that the world is operating at an even faster pace. News, money, ideas, information and people are moving around with increasing speed. Technology – the Idea that technological developments, such as jet aircraft, telephones, the internet, satellite television, etc, make globalisation possible. Capital – the idea that it is the flow of money and investments around the world that drives the globalisation process.
