Globalization is a fascinating spectacle that can be understood as global systems of competition and connectivity.

Topics include national identity, language diversity, the global labor market, popular culture, sports and climate change.
However, an increase in integration has not brought increased equality. Globalization creates winners and losers among countries and global corporations, making competition the beating heart of the globalization process.

Learn how to identify and analyze global systems and better understand how the world works.
