Globalization vs. Nationalism

Globalization: The word global himself defines itself it leads to world marketing and technology development. Globalization leads to the development of underdeveloped countries by means of competition levels at different level globalization develops an enthusiasm among other undeveloped nation to develop itself and compete in global market globalization not only helps in marketing development but also helps in the economic development of the nation it always foreign boundary-less trading facility through which foreign investment is being practiced and these foreign investment helps to develop the economy in Bette way.

Nationalism: it leads to nations development into its country itself it doesn't allow us boundary-less trading nationalism deals with limitations to take the small scale industry are the best example of nationalism it leads to minimum development of the country with its boundaries. Thus in comparison to globalization and nationalism global plays a vital role in the development of nations to other nations.

As per my believes, Globalization and Nationalism must be an integration process for the betterment of this world. Globalization is an inexorable and inexplicable process. With the rapid progression of technology and communication, Globalization has become more pragmatic. For developing countries like India it has transformed more of a necessity. Over the years, we have had appreciable international relations that stimulated Globalization and aided us in many fields including science and commerce. It is often replicated in the country's foreign investments too. So it is imperative to take Globalization as part of our development.

But it's a matter to be taken care that it must have negative impacts on our nation's economic progress. We need stringent foreign policies to secure good demands for our indigenous goods in the international market. Above all as part of Globalization, we are a vulnerable country to brain drain and the govt must see to provide enough education and job opportunities for it's people.

Hi let me tell you what is globalisation. In real it is the process of connecting of national economies through a common platform like trade, FDI etc. In my sense globalisation is much needed for any developing country to increse its GDP, for creating employement. In the early decades after the independence, Indian was likwe a iron kukoon with no exports to the other countries and also no imports and hence the GDP was also very low up to early 1980's. But after 1980's because of globalisation only the GDP of the country has started increasing. However some people says that because of globalisation only our culture is disappearing because of globalisation but I think it is the not only factor which is downgarading the Indian culture. So, globalisation is necessary in terms of everything, if globalisation is not there, we will just remain in our country all, to spread our talents in term of anything may be its business or anything else. Globalisation is required.

Nowadays globalization is playing the most important role in case of developing countries like India. After 1980s the people of India felt the importance of globalization and after that India never looking back. Now a days India is the most favourite investing place among the foreign countries by virtue of which both India and foreign countries are getting benefits in terms of technology acquirement, research, development, cultural union etc.

By virtue of globalization people of India are mostly getting benefited because due to the competitiveness among the indigenous and foreign industries and also the quality of the product is also increasing. Most of the outsider companies are developing industries in association with indigenous companies as a result sharing of technology is possible and job opportunity is increasing. And so on.

In other words we can say that Globalization does not affect nationalism at all rather it increases brotherhood among nations.

If a country wants progress in every aspect, it has to accept globalization. Globalization helps to access better technology. It helps to improve the standard of living among Indians. Foreign companies bring capital and technology which would ultimately benefit us by creating employment, empowering our researchers by providing access to technology, triggering a cascading effect which would results in inflation and growth. Globalization not only means foreign countries exploit our resources, but also means Indian companies could use the resources and technology and access the markets of foreign countries. Local Indian companies could emerge as MNCs. We, the Indians have to adopt globalization if we really concerned about our country.

But Globalization leads to cultural degradation and cultural homogenity. It makes us to feel as a global citizen rather than Indian citizen but our nationalistic conscious makes us to pride for being an Indian.

I think that both concepts are vital for the survival and development for every country and society nowadays. On one hand, it is imperative to mention that every society and culture is vulnerable and sort of exposed to the process of globalization, and this has both advantages and disadvantages. Through erosion of national boundaries, the exchange of ideas, goods and services, and the creation of information networks can favour every country to some extent; satisfying consumers around the globe, improving technologies, and creating jobs, for instance. Also, the process of globalization is important because it is the way the world economy stabilizes nowadays; no one is self-sufficient.

However, I believe that there must be limits to this global homogenization and that nationalism is important in the sense that one must protect and value one's community and its rights. Because otherwise there might be a loss of cultural identity and more.

In my opinion, globalization and nationalism should go hand in hand with the development of a country. Globalization helps elimiante barriers between regions, and has connected the world more than ever, making it easier to reach places we couldn't reach before, and arrive at faster times, furthermore it has made it easier to exchange culture, ideas, entretainment almost instantaneously. This if applied correctly can help boost a country's economy, and make people more aware of what happens in other parts of the world.

Nationalism is also a major factor for a country's development, as it is what connects people, based on their history. It is crucial that people feel identified with their nation, as not only does this help unify the country, and avoid internal conflicts, but also if people don't feel identified with their culture, and don't embrace it, the true values of a country will not be represented correctly at a global scale.

Hi everyone,

I am very fortunate for giving a such opportunity to discuss on the topic of Globalization vs Nationalization.

First of all, we have to know about the topic, and what actually it is:

"Globalization" refers to the relation between the trade, business, commerce etc among the countries across the world.

"Nationalization " refers to the process of taking control of companies, industries, banks or assets by the government.

Both we have to take equally as important, if we give more priority to the nationalisation then the economy of our country will increase in a very fast rate also the export of our goods and services will spread across the countries by this we will get significant at a global level. And we will automatically find the participation of our country at the global level in any sector.

So, we have to look forward first to the nationalization of our goods, services, skills etc.

Thanks to all.

I think both Globalisation and Nationalism are required for the progress and development of a country. With globalization, we can get up to date with the latest technologies, keep our pace matching with that of other countries and at the same time maintain healthy relations with other countries. We never know we might need anyone at the time of distress.

The very idea of nationalism, when linked with Globalisation, is when you get inspired by the technologies and develop your own model so that other countries appreciate it and trade with it. It's not about taking aid from other countries but it's about following the principle of "Aid and Trade". Nationalism comes when you stay in your country and contribute your brain in the progress of the country and take your nation to a higher level and not leave your country in search of opportunities. It's about giving back to the country that created you.

I will generalise this topic and consider India as a country, even though globalisation is the only direction in which a country should go in order to achieve the status of a developed/powerful country but there are many backsides to it, for a country like India who still has majority of people below poverty line and a higher rate of illiteracy its very hard for its people to get out of the bigotry and bounds of religion, but as Darwin quotes"survival of the fittest " the ones who will adapt will progress whereas others will be ruined.

Globalisation is basically reformed to a culture not necessarily radical, and people should adapt accordingly, because what was said before doesn't apply to present circumstances, therefore I believe globalisation is a must for a country to progress and culture, values of a country should remain intact along with globalisation with certain crucial adaptation.
