INTRODUCTION
This research will be conducted to determine the impact of social globalization on
people. Iam interested in how social globalization affects people, how people change because
of this economic phenomena and this will be able to know the positive and negative effects of
social globalization on people and also in our society.
Globalization is the process of international integration arising from the interchange of
world views, products, ideas and other aspects of culture. Advances in transportation, such as
the steam locomotive, steamship, jet engine, container ships, and in telecommunications
infrastructure, including the rise of the telegraph and its modern offspring, the Internet, and
mobile phones, have been major factors in globalization, generating further interdependence of
economic and cultural activities. Though scholars place the origins of globalization in modern
times, others trace its history long before the European Age of Discovery and voyages to the
New World. Some even trace the origins to the third millennium BCE. Large-scale globalization
began in the 19th century. In the late 19th century and early 20th century, the connectivity of
the world's economies and cultures grew very quickly, Dolce(2016).
Globalization is the free movement of goods, services and people across the world in a
seamless and integrated manner. Globalization can be thought of to be the result of the
opening up of the global economy and the concomitant increase in trade between nations. In
other words, when countries that were hitherto closed to trade and foreign investment open
up their economies and go global, the result is an increasing interconnectedness and
integration of the economies of the world. Further, globalization also means that countries
liberalize their visa rules and procedures so as to permit the free flow of people from country to
country. Moreover, globalization results in freeing up the unproductive sectors to investment
and the productive sectors to export related activities resulting in a win-win situation for the
economies of the world. Globalization in the simplest terms means to extend the world in
which you interact with. For products, according to Strandin (2017) the evolution developed
from hunting and farming your own food, to buying it in town, to convenience stores, to having
it shipped right to your house, regardless of where the product was originally made.
Social Globalization refers to the interpersonal contact that is made in your everyday
life. It has followed the same pattern growing from people that you see on a daily basis, to
people you could correspond with through mail to email to social networks. We continue to be
more closely in touch with people all around in real time even translating through language
barriers, Strandin (2017). And the most example for this is social media, such as facebook,
twitter, instagram etc. this kind of social media people connecting each other even if
