Contemporary World Politics: Globalisation

Question:

Globalisation is a multi-dimensional concept. It has political, economic, and cultural manifestations, and these must be adequately distinguished. It is wrong to assume that globalisation has purely economic dimensions, just as it would also be mistaken to assume that it is a purely cultural phenomenon. The impact of globalisation is vastly uneven — it affects some societies more than others and some parts of some societies more than others.

Which of the following statements is incorrect?

a- Globalization has only positive effects.

b- In Globalisation it needs not to be that the direction of influence is always from the rich to the poor countries.

Options:

Only statement a is incorrect.

Only statement b is incorrect.

Both statements are incorrect.

Neither of them is incorrect.

Correct Answer:

Only statement a is incorrect.

Explanation:

The examples show us that globalization need not always be positive; it can have negative consequences for people. Indeed, there are many who believe that globalization has more negative consequences than positive ones. Globalization need not be only about economic issues, nor is the direction of influence always from the rich to the poor countries.
