Globalization vs. Nationalism

Globalization and Nationalization are two very different terms. Globalization refers to assimilation of the best technology, economic pattern, defense, education, etc. Whereas nationalism symbolizes closeness or adherence to ones own values and culture which includes social, economic, political etc.

In the past due to less or no globalization countries development were stagnated or slowed, those were the days when nationalism was dominant. But at present we are convinced that if it was not for globalization we might have been still ignorant and poor and development a far dream.

Having said that to reap the fruits of globalization we have to create a favorable national environment. In short. We need a good blend between globalization and nationalism.

Nationalism and Globalization are said to be the two different parts of the same coin. Both are needed for the development of the country. Nationalism is the complex, multidimensional concept involving a shared communal identification with ones nation. Globalization is the intermixing of the culture trade and relationship between other countries.

Hello everyone.

It is a great topic to discuss.

Globalization - I think globalization is the need of a peaceful world when we globally interactive by means of business, trade, tradition, culture it will help in the progress of humanity.

Nationalism - Nationalism is important to factor to drive our Nations economy faster when we love our country our people we will do work hard for the betterment of nation and America is the example where 41 % of people say my country is the best country in the world and the second one is India where 36% people says India is the best country in the world.

I think globalization is important but in today's scenario developed countries enjoying globalization much more than country's like India, they use Indian market and sell their products in a high prices and indirectly this causes the problems like spoiling of our home products and surge of dollar against rupee. So in my opinion the globalization is good if it gives equal share to all.

Nationalism is also very vital for nations like India because it makes people totally devoted for nation welfare and traumatize the evils like corruption etc.

Hello everybody,

Globalization now dominates since the world is moving towards open economies, investments, tech-exchange, communications, immigration impacts, cultural interactions, but all these factors got pros and cons towards many nations on earth used to live in conservative trends which globalization force threat to change that way of living like what mentioned above from participants. The right excited when any country wants to develop should focus on the positive side of globalization elements and stick around their heritage, even the developed countries look at 'immigration's influence as new cultures new languages threatening their own existence.

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.

Both the globalization and nationalization are important for a company to grow in all aspects. These are just like the two eyes out of which any single eye cannot be neglected as it is. Globalization is the new buzzword that has come to dominate the world since the nineties of the last century with the end of the cold war and the break-up of the former Soviet Union and the global trend towards the rolling ball. The frontiers of the state with increased reliance on the market economy and renewed faith in the private capital and resources, a process of structural adjustment spurred by the studies and influences of the World Bank and other International organisations have started in many of the developing countries. Also Globalization has brought in new opportunities to developing countries. Greater access to developed country markets and technology transfer hold out promise improved productivity and higher living standard.

But globalization has also thrown up new challenges like growing inequality across and within nations, volatility in financial market and environmental deterioration's. Another negative aspect of globalization is that a great majority of developing countries remain removed from the process. Till the nineties the process of globalization of the Indian economy was constrained by the barriers to trade and investment liberalization of trade, investment and financial flows initiated in the nineties has progressively lowered the barriers to competition and hastened the pace of globalization.

Hi, I appreciate globalisation for update in the world but we can't forget our nation and our nationalism. For example China people are well educated and well ahead in the development but they doesn't forget their nation love, if we want to know there technologies we need to know chinese language.

We are first join state after speak globalization. State to state different rule and regulations we are first correct state. India current scenario go to lagging market. The India backbone of agriculture but present agriculture is reduced this government. Agriculture land convert to Mnc company to approved this government. We are save agriculture we improve national.

Well according to me, globalization and nationalization are both important because both are interdependent on each other taking globalization with nationalisation will lead to a brighter future because it will not only increase the GDP but also an easy lifestyle and remove poverty from one's country.
