7. 10mins Globalisation Post 1940s
Globalisation has affected the global economy since the 1940s in 3 main ways:
Lengthening
Deepening
Faster
TASK: Draw the diagram on page 13 and then explain it in 5 bullet points

8. Length/Depth/Speed and the Economy
In poorer countries, like Chad, they will not go very far for their produce. Their economy will rely mainly on the villages around them. They will not feel deeply connected to other parts of the world because they don’t have products from other parts of the world. Products aren’t gained that quickly, because of a lack of information technology and transport.
In richer countries, our economy is heavily reliant on countries which are a long distance from the UK. We have products from all around the world and therefore feel a deep connection with other countries. Trade can happen a lot faster because of technology and transport

9. Global Flows

Tourists – The movement of people, especially with the rise of cheap air
Migrants – the movement of people to find work in richer countries
