History of Globalization

    The history of Globalization more specifically when did it start is still up until now an issue in the academe although most conducted studies on the topic of Globalization has narrowed it down to the last two decades using the researches of past philosophers that have something to do with today's contemporary definition of Globalization and also as emphasized by Professor Sheuerman the diminishing of space or distance due to the emergence of the different types of high-speed forms of transportation such as rail ways, airplanes, and faster ships documented in the last two decades. I think Professor Sheuerman wanted to emphasize here was the great effect of transportation in Globalization after all every "synonym" mentioned in my past blog can be incorporated into transportation especially global integration and the free market or any form of economic activity and then the interaction of different cultures will soon follow.
