Globalization - Past, Present, and Future.

The 21st century has witnessed a phenomenon - Globalization. As the trade barriers in the world get reduced and foreign direct investment increases, there is an increased interdependency amongst the countries and integration of operations of multinational enterprises. Foreign direct investment has overtaken international trade and world output. What has globalization done to the world? Is it a blessing or a curse to the people of this world? What are the implications for developed and developing countries? Let us take a snap shot of the world in the past two thousand years, and understand the evolution of this unstoppable phenomenon as it affects the lives of billions of people around the world in a profound manner.
