First known use of the term "globalization" in a publication entitled "Towards New Education"
1930
Globalization
The understanding of the world and the increased perception of the world as a whole
Globalization
All those processes by which the peoples of the world are incorporated into a single world society
Globalization
Can be linked to the local, the national and the regional
Globalization
A process of interaction and integration among the people, companies, and governments of different nations
Globalization is a process driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology
Globalization has effects on the environment, on culture, on political systems, on economic development and prosperity, and on human physical well-being on societies around the world
Migration
Movement to another place, often of a large group of people
Labor
Work, especially hard physical work
People are more willing to move between different countries today in search for work. Remittances now play a large role in transfers from developed countries to developing countries
Types of Globalization
Economic Globalization
Social Globalization
Political Globalization
Financial Globalization
Technological Globalization
Ecological Globalization
Geographical Globalization
Economic Globalization
The increasing economic integration and interdependence of national, regional, and local economies across the world through an intensification of cross boarder movement of goods, services, technologies and capital
Social Globalization
A social transformation or process leading to the achievement of people-centered development. Human-centered development concept is offered as an alternative strategy to bring about a more equity development outcome
Political Globalization
An increasing trend toward multilateralism in an emerging transnational state apparatus and the emergence of national and international non-governmental organizations that act as watchdogs over governments
Financial Globalization
A collective concept that refers to increasing global linkages created through cross-border financial flows. Financial integration refers to an individual country's linkages to international capital markets
Technological Globalization
Accelerated in large part by technological transmission, the spread of technology across borders
Ecological Globalization
Occurs when ecosystems are constantly exchanging materials through the movement of air in the atmosphere, the flow of water in rivers and the migration of animals across the landscape
Geographical Globalization
The set of processes (economic, social, cultural, technological, and institutional) that contributes to the relationship between societies and individuals around the world
People
A group of people with commonality, such as religion, culture and language who lives in a specific area
Nation
A larger group of people organized in a specific place, which embodied an independent government of its country where they can decide on their own
Collaboration
Working together with others to achieve a common goal. Unconditionally sharing everything and helping each other while mutually working together in cohesive "collective" in unusual roles embracing talents of each person to synergize or invent something new in a way that: a. benefits all the groups, b. serves the whole team's goal, and c. may result to creative innovation
Cooperation
The process of working together to the same end. It is an active help from a person, organization etc. such as an orderly sharing of space and resources. Cooperation means conditionally sharing information and resources while functioning together within an independent "connective" in typical roles with workloads accepted as unequal to change something in a way that: a. benefits some individuals in a group, b. meets their personal needs, and c. may result in disrupted innovation
Proximity
Objects that are closer together are perceived as more related than objects that are further apart
Proximity
Figures that are closer tend to cluster together since the brain identifies familiar objects more easily
Proximity is akin to public places but uses space for a sense of inclusion
Similarity
Elements with similar characteristics are perceived as more related than those without
Similarity
Similarity is evident when objects are grouped together and share common features like color, texture, shape, shading, among others
Viewers associate elements with striking resemblance as connected due to their collective features
Common Regions
Elements are perceived as part of a group if they are located within the same closed region
Common Regions
Related elements enclosed within a boundary are considered part of a group, while those outside are seen as separate entities
Focal Points
Elements with a point of interest, emphasis, or difference capture and hold the viewer's attention
Focal Points
Different elements in a group of similar objects alert or provoke danger to viewers
Focal points combine the principles of similarity and emphasis
Uniform Connectedness
Visually connected elements are perceived as more related than those with no connection
Uniform Connectedness
This principle links two sets of uniform objects, making viewers perceive them as related even if they have different shapes and do not touch
Closure
When seeing a complex arrangement of elements, people tend to look for a single, recognizable pattern
Closure
Closure is about the human tendency to seek and find patterns, filling in gaps to see objects as wholes
Providing enough information allows the eye to fill in the rest for closure to occur
Symmetry and Order
People tend to perceive objects as symmetrical shapes forming around their center
Symmetry and Order
Symmetry creates order and solidarity, even if structures are not perfect or symmetrical
Continuation
Elements arranged on a line or curve are perceived as more related than those not on the line or curve
Continuation
Objects clustered and aligned together form perceptual wholes, even if there are intersections between them
Figure or Ground
Elements are perceived as either figure (the focus) or ground (the background)
