Course description
Globalisation is a widely used term in business, politics and trade but its real meaning and 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 and effects of the globalisation process, the roles of various players, in particular the multinational firm and governments and the likely future directions of world business in a global context. Criticisms of globalisation are reviewed in the light of their wide appeal.
