ABSTRACT
Globalization is usually viewed as a phenomenon grounded in economics. The erosion of national boundaries by the flow of capital and goods across those boundaries is usually identified as the main reason for the economic, social, political and cultural integration and homogenization to which we apply the term “globalization”. Nevertheless, it is the non-economic impact of that flow that attracts the greatest scholarly attention, for it is non-economic changes in the environment in which we live that have the greatest impact on our daily lives.
