Concept Map

Globalization refers to the increased international integration of economic activities through technological innovation, foreign direct investment, and economic interdependence between nations. While globalization can benefit economies through economies of scale and access to new markets and resources, it also poses risks like threats to national sovereignty and an inequitable distribution of gains across countries. The degree to which nations exploit opportunities or remain isolated influences how much they benefit from globalization.
