Solution

Dear student,
  • Globalisation means the interconnections in economic activities, trade and business that have led to the integration of manufacturing industries and markets around the world.
  • It is a process that is an offshoot of the liberalisation of previously closed national economies and opening them up to international manufacturers.
  • Reduction of trade barriers like tariffs, import duties and licensing quotas have hastened this process by fuelling capital and investment movements.
  • Globalisation has led to demand for skilled labour. It has manifested itself culturally as well through the circulation of ideas.
  • Dissemination of knowledge and technology is another important aspect of globalisation.
