Globalization vs. Nationalism

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.

Globalization is an important element in the development of a country. It aids in the expansion of a country's economy by the creation of new relations with other countries. More developed countries are able to invest in less developed countries to provide more jobs, more capital, advances in technology, among others. Nonetheless, it also involves the flow of ideas. As a nation becomes more developed there can be negative consequences concerning nationalism. Countries tend to lose their ideas and costumes when they become more interconnected with others and begin to adapt to new cultures.

Globalization is important for both developed and developing countries as it creates connections between economies, cultures, and technologies. However, it is important for a country to remain with certain nationalism while developing in order to avoid the loss of cultures.

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.

Globalization is more global movement or trend that can erode nationalism. Nationalism is more based on a specific "nation" with a specific culture. Meanwhile, globalization attempts to create a global culture by implementing a more dominant one over other countries while having a backflow from its receptor country.

In my opinion, first nationalism should be enhanced in our country because we should make use of our resources that we manufacture that will make us proud that yes India has the capability to be a developed country but what happens is that we are most often making use of other country resources which is making India to be called as developing nation, it is not that globalisation should not be done but globalisation should be the second point in the development of the nation. It is also required to promote friendliness, to promote import-export of the country.

Both are important in their own respect. Globalisation has made countries to share technology and ideas which helped the nations to boost their trade, create employment and above all creating a positive environment to respect each other for whatever they are irrespective of background. Nationalism is a must as one shouldn't forget their roots of culture and traditional values and love their motherland. The feeling of your country performing well in any field gives you immense pleasure.

Follow your culture and respect others traditions!

Globalisation blur the boundary lines between two states. It allows free trade economy between the countries.

Nationalism promotes the theory of realism; the states work for its own survival. It leads to politicaly economic crisis among the country.

The demerit of globalisation is the great influnece of west on developing countries.

In my opinion, globalization is very important for any country as well as nationalism. For developing country like India, it is very important to be connected to with rest of the world for the purpose of business, communication, finance, cultural exchanges, tourism etc. It helps creating job opportunity. Globalization and Nationalism are said to two parts of same coin. Globalization is intermixing of culture trade and relationship among other countries.

Definitely friends both these terms play a immense role while prospering of a nation is considered.

It may be just compared to handing over reigns of a buisness to a child when he turns out be capable for this.

In the same way when the country gets internally well nationalised and united then it will be a must to step towards globalisation.

Here is the junction a nation gets to know of its stand in world and enshrine the needed innovations to help solve problem of unemployment, doing away with social evils with liberal thoughts.

Yes nationalization will play a great role here as it won't let the other cultures dominate that of ours.

In the conditions like today when china dominates the cheap goods markets will help people to gather guts to sacrifice their bits for Indian markets.
