As Giddens (1991, p. 64) states “globalisation can be defined as the intensification of worldwide social relations which link distant localities in such a way that local happenings are shaped by events occurring many miles away and vice versa.” As a consequence of several factors such as the boost of international governance, the end of Cold War, the collapse of Soviet Communism and the raise of the global economy the globalization was enhance, (Billing 1995; Giddens and Griffiths 2006) which has potential effects on political, cultural, social and economic relations (Waters 2001; Smith 1999).正如吉登斯(1991年,第64页)“全球化可以定义为全球的社会关系的激化,连接遥远的地方,在这样一种方式,塑造地方事件发生的事件很多英里远,留学生毕业论文反之亦然。”作为的后果如推动国际治理,冷战结束,苏联共产主义的崩溃和全球经济全球化增强提高(1995年计费; 2006年吉登斯和格里菲思),政治,文化的潜在影响的几个因素,社会和经济关系(沃特斯2001年,史密斯1999年)。
The first topic to be covered is the economic aspect of globalization that leads to massive number of migrations in order to settle down temporarily or permanently abroad (Spencer and Wollman 2002). Economic globalisation also has an influence on transnational cooperation (Giddens and Griffiths 2006) for example McDonalds has 119 franchises globally where the key aspect of success is predictability, (Ritzer 2004; McDonald’s 2009;). As customers are able to purchase international products and decide on a variety of international restaurants (Billing 1995), especially in the wealthy Western society, individuals can create their own identities which, however, are more open to change (Spencer and Wollman 2002). However, the downside of globalisation is the collapse of the national state sovereignty since according to Billing (1995) and Levitt (1983) the globalisation is reducing the diversity and space between nations. Whereas, a recent study (Bhawuk 2008) indicates that homogenized culture are not induced by economic globalisation. 被覆盖的第一个主题是全球化的经济方面,导致数量庞大的迁移,以解决暂时或永久海外(2002年斯宾塞和沃尔曼)。经济全球化也有一定影响力的跨国合作(2006年吉登斯和格里菲思)例如,麦当劳在全球有119个特许经营成功的关键方面是可预见性,(李泽尔,2004年,2009年麦当劳;)。由于客户能够购买国际化的产品,并决定对各种国际餐厅(计费1995),尤其是在富裕的西方社会,个人可以创建自己的身份,然而,更加开放的改变(2002年斯宾塞和沃尔曼)。然而,全球化的负面影响,是国家的国家主权,因为根据账单(1995年)和莱维特(1983)全球化是减少国与国之间的多样性和空间的崩溃。然而,最近的一项研究(2008年Bhawuk)表示,同质化文化经济全球化引起的。
The second topic that needs to be discussed is the political globalization since it encourages the global interdependence such as the European Union which is a good example of a super state organisation. This government threatens the autonomy and the power of other nation-states’ parliaments which lack that kind of influence they used to have (Spencer and Wollman 2002; Billing 1995). On the other hand, to respond to the globalization there are several political nation`s movements aiming to strengthen the nation-state (Spencer and Wollman 2002).第二个需要讨论的话题,如欧洲联盟,这是一个很好的例子,一个超国家组织,因为它鼓励全球相互依存的政治全球化。这个政府威胁的自主性和其他民族国家的议会,没有那种(斯宾塞和沃尔曼2002年交费1995年)的影响力,他们用的力量。另一方面,以应对全球化有几个政治民族的运动,旨在加强民族国家(2002年斯宾塞和沃尔曼)。
The last topic to be covered is the cultural aspect. Owing to the global media, international hotels, identical airport terminals and global markets, the cultural homogenisation have been increased in today’s society (Spencer and Wollman 2002), let us take a look at McDonalds as an example. Despite its ubiquity and predictability of McDonalds it has a high degree of respect for local cultures, shown by the local variety of products available in some countries, which are provided in order to avoid damaging the local culture. For example in India McDonald`s has developed a new menu without any beef or pork, whilst in Israel the company conform to the local regulations hence it provides kosher meat and chicken (McDonald’s 2008, 2009).被覆盖的最后一个主题是文化方面。由于全球媒体,国际酒店,相同的机场航站楼和全球市场,文化同质化已增加(2002年斯宾塞和沃尔曼)在当今社会,让我们一起来看看在麦当劳为例。尽管它的普遍性和可预见性的麦当劳,它具有高度尊重当地的文化,表现出当地的各种产品在一些国家,这是为了避免破坏当地的文化提供。例如,在印度麦当劳`s已经开发了一个新的菜单没有任何牛肉或猪肉,而在以色列公司符合当地的法律法规,因此它提供洁净肉和鸡(麦当劳2008年,2009年)。
Several researchers argue that the globalisation is weakening the nation’s solidity (Boli et al. 2004
