Global Issues: Globalisation considers the definition of globalisation, its history, its economic, social and technological causes and its political and environmental impact. The various responses to globalisation, its massive effect on our future, and the media's role in reporting on globalisation at a time of conglomeration within the media industry itself, are also taken into account.
