SESSION 3
THE GLOBAL INTERSTATE SYSTEM

Internationalization - Process of increasing
involvement of business in the international arena. An

increased importance of international trade,
alliances, and treaties. However, this does not equal
globalization which encompasses a lot of things. It

tries to erase national boundaries for economic
purposes.
4 KEY ATTRIBUTES
1. There are states that are independent from one another;
2. These states interact with one another through
diplomacy;
3. International organizations exist to facilitate these
interactions; and
4. Beyond facilitating meetings among states, these
organizations also take lives on their own (Claudio, 2018).
NATION-STATE
There are four essential elements of a state:

people,
territory
sovereignty
government.
EFFECTS OF GLOBALIZATION ON GOVERNMENTS
1. In communication, subscribers and users of the internet are remarkably increasing
2. In education, new communication and technologies enabled the students and

researchers, both young and old, to access ideas and information from the best libraries
around the globe
3. In different core issues, almost everyone is made aware of the rights of women and
children, health, environment, , discrimination and inequalities through increased media
coverage.
4. In culture, clear and deeper understanding of the different communities with their
practices and religions is greater than before which leads to a possible demonstration of
sympathy and compassion with one another in time of calamities and tragedies
EFFECTS OF GLOBALIZATION ON GOVERNMENTS
5. In resources, since developed countries need natural and human resources while
developing countries need capital, technology and brainpower there is a growing
interdependence among these countries.
6. In investment, developed countries flow investment to developing countries which

pushes up the reserve of foreign exchange
7. In competition, every global corporation as well as domestic corporation will improve

the quality of their product and services to compete globally, resulting in survival of the
fittest situation.
NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF GLOBALIZATION ON GOVERNMENTS
1. In culture, globalization is a challenge to culture and language. The scientific and economic
superiority of developed countries imposing certain languages particularly in English that may pose a
problem practically wiping out most traditions, customs and values in most societies and
marginalizes their culture. It also reshapes the sense of identity of many individuals, especially the
migrants.
2. In developing countries, global corporations have the tendency to cause damage to the
environment of these countries in addition to dangerously marketing expired products and illegal
goods. The world has become a "global pillage instead of global village" (Giddens, 2000).
3. In religion, exchange of information on different opinions about various religions are made easier by
globalization, however the religious values lose their influence on people's behaviors due to the
promotion of pure secular system values. Corruption of values find a way into the minds of individuals.
4. In morals, immoral acts are not only globalized but also becoming a disease. Many people are
wasting a lot of time on the Internet for unnecessary purposes. With the use of the Internet, young
people can have direct access to immoral materials. Due to lack of parental guidance, a lot of
criminalities have emerged in the present times.
NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF GLOBALIZATION ON GOVERNMENTS
5. In international politics, the collapse of some countries like the Soviet Union has led powerful countries
like the US to control the global system and international relations.
6. In the economy, many national economies collapsed due to the emergence of global corporations that
offer cheaper products and services. It has led to fluctuation in price.
7. In science, although globalization remarkably contributes to new scientific revolutions in many fields,
especially in space and computer sciences, these new revolutions paved the way to be used for immoral
purposes and to damage the dignity of man who is created by God including the environment.

around the world. These are organizations with
international membership, scope, or presence.

with one another in political, economic and cultural
aspects for the promotion of the common good.
3 TYPES OF INTERNATIONALISM
Hegemonic internationalism is the dominance of one
country over a nation or nation-state. Most often, nations
with ruling power will bring their successors to the less
influenced states
Liberal internationalism is a belief introduced by Immanuel

Kant (1724-1804) that nation-states should give up some of
their freedoms and establish a continuously growing global
system consisting of various nations working together to
prevent lawlessness in the world. .
3 TYPES OF INTERNATIONALISM

society are due to international factors and alliances.
Nation-states are forced to do what they think is right.

social or cultural (Nye, 2002).
