4. Globalization Geographer Andrew Kirby explains that with globalization, we are living “not so much in a world without boundaries, or in a world without geography – but more literally, in a world, as opposed to a neighborhood or a region.”

6. The Backbone of Globalization is Trade Every CEO, reader or writer of a weblog or blog, protestor at a world trade meeting is participating in globalization. When we buy shoes, clothes or food that was produced overseas-we are participating in Globalization. Globalization occurs at many scales-macro- world wide and micro local with many differing impacts.

19. Nat. Geog. May 2008 “China Price” due to a vast labor force that works for a low price-China has cornered the market on many everyday goods.

China is expected to overtake the US as the world’s largest economy by 2020.
