What is the relation between politics and globalization? - LEEKIHOON

1. Summary

Usually, as globalization progresses, the concept of borders goes beyond the idea that they will disappear, and even if politics becomes globalized, the existence of a state in a new environment, not just a decline of a state, will be more dynamically reorganized. Globalization is called globalization, but if you look closely, traditional global geopolitics such as interstate power and territory continues to be important, and a state is at the core of the global order. However, it is not unique. As a result of the formation of a global normative culture like environmental issues, universal standards are established beyond individual countries, such as the UN and NGOs. As a result, a new form of economic development with the traditional new order is being created, and thus transnationalization is being made in a way that shares the sovereignty of each country and reorganizes it in the right way, and ultimately, political globalization is opening up a more complex and sometimes conflicting political space.

2. something new or interesting
The most interesting thing about this was refuting the conventional wisdom that globalization weakens the nation, and I thought that it would gradually decline when it comes to globalization. However, with the new pressure, another role and function are formed, and globalization has realistically explained the complexity of globalization. In addition, the analysis that borders are scattered and internalized throughout society, such as airports and checkpoints, rather than disappearing, showed that things that were previously considered abstract are largely connected to our daily lives.

3. Discussion and questions
It is said that countries share sovereignty like the EU to become superpowers, but it is questionable whether this can be applied equally in all countries. In addition, each country has different ideas, like communism, rather than democracy, and it is necessary to discuss how it will be transformed and connected to each other in these conflicts. Finally, it was mentioned that a global normative culture is important, but it is questionable whether this norm is the right norm.

What is globalization--Kim younggyun

 1) Summarize From what I understand, globalization is not merely an economic trend. It is a broad concept in which the world becomes increasingly interconnected on cultural, social, political, and even individual levels. Because globalization is such an all-encompassing idea, it is only natural that debates continue over its definition. This is exactly what made studying the concept of globalization difficult for me. That is why, like Robertson and White, I tried to understand globalization mainly through the two dimensions of increasing connectivity and growing consciousness. I find their approach persuasive. When internet, transportation, and trade expand, the connections between countries grow stronger, and naturally, people begin to perceive the world as a “single place.” 2) Interesting point What I found particularly interesting while studying globalization is that it does not simply lead to “one-sided homogenization.” I used to think of globalization only as the expansion of...

What is globalization? | Yun Shinji

1.   Summary It is difficult to define the concept of ‘globalization’ with a single meaning, as the term is used in various contexts with different implications. Sociologist Roland Robertson describes globalization as “the compression of the world and the intensification of consciousness of the world as a whole". Robertson and White further elaborate it as two main trends “an increase in global interconnectedness” and "an increase in global consciousness". In this way, globalization is a complex phenomenon in which the world becomes closely connected across borders, and it is used in multiple ways in different contexts. Globalization can be broadly divided into three dimensions cultural, political, and economic. Among them, cultural globalization is the phenomenon we experience most directly in our daily lives. For example, a cultural content that becomes popular can spread worldwide and be shared globally. However, this phenomenon also raises concerns about cultural hom...

What is the relation between politics and globalization? - Yun Shinji

1) Summary The author views “political globalization” as a multidimensional, accelerated, and interconnected form of organization that transcends national borders across space and time. Rather than seeing globalization as a simple reality, the author understands it as a “relational dynamic” that produces a complex and constantly shifting political landscape. According to the author, political globalization is driven by three key processes. First is global geopolitics. This involves interactions mainly between states, including traditional balances of power, international security, territorial disputes, and other state-centered dynamics. These geopolitical interactions continue to shape how states position themselves in an increasingly interdependent world. Second is the global normative culture, which refers to political values and norms—such as human rights and democracy—that are shared or diffused across the world. These norms influence how states govern internally and how they are e...
