4. Globalization
Definition: the force or process that involves the entire world and results in making something worldwide in scope.
Explanation: Globalization means that the scale of the world is shrinking – not literally in size, duh, but in the ability of someone or something to interact with someone or something in another place. It makes the world more uniform and interdependent.
Examples: Jeans. Jeans are worn all over the world. McDonalds – seriously, Micky D’s are on every continent (except Antarctica). English – the language, not the class. Again, duh.
