Course description
Globalisation is a widely used term in business, politics & trade but its real meaning& implications are often misunderstood. This course takes students through the major issues relating to globalisation. These are the different meanings that are associated with the concept, the causes & effects of the globalisation process, the roles of various players, in particular the multinational firm & governments & the likely future directions of world business in a global context. Criticisms of globalisation are reviewed in the light of their wide appeal.
