A modern coinage to refer to the process of the intermixing of previously different and more distinct societies.

Official narrative

Wikipedia reports that "globalisation is the process of international integration arising from the interchange of world views, products, ideas, and other aspects of culture", and suggests that is was popularised in the late 1980s and the 1990s. In 2000, the International Monetary Fund identified four basic aspects of globalization: trade and transactions, capital and investment movements, migration and movement of people, and the dissemination of knowledge.

Problems

The phrase "globalisation" is often used to refer to "economic globalisation". While advances in travel and telecommunication technology have lead quite naturally, perhaps inevitably to a greater mixing of languages, cultures etc. the corporate agenda referred to as "economic globalisation" seems far less natural and is certainly not inevitable. The commercially-controlled media has applied the label "anti-globalisation" to a wide variety of alternative groups.

Economic globalisation

The banner of "economic globalisation" is often used as a means of changing national laws, a so-called process of "harmonization". In practice, one aspect of a group's laws are often harmonized by choosing the most business friendly of the set of laws available, and standardising on that. Where states have a wide variety of laws and regulations, a set of such harmonizations can result in a large shift in effective laws.

Supranational institutions

Especially since NAFTA in 1994, so-called "free trade" agreements (for which citizens' approval is rarely sought), nation states have been signing away their sovereignty through the creation of supranational institutions and laws, most obviously to resolve economic disputes. The sweeping powers, undemocratic and unaccountable nature of such authorities have evoked widespread concern with some critics suggesting that they are part of a globalist agenda to render the nation state obsolete by establishing a New World Order. These concerns have not been widely reported by the commercially-controlled media.

Ziad Abdelnour	“Iran's going to be finished and every single Arab regime that's like this will be finished. Because there is no room for us capitalists and multinationalists in the world to operate with regimes like this. Its all about money. And power. And wealth... and democracy has to be spread around the world. Those who want to espouse globalization are going to make a lot of money, be happy, their families will be happy. And those who aren't going to play this game are going to be crushed, whether they like it or not! This is how we rule. And this is how it's going to be as long as you have people who think like me.”	Ziad Abdelnour	18 November 2005
Council for Inclusive Capitalism with the Vatican	“The [Council for Inclusive Capitalism with the Vatican] is yet another front group in what is becoming a globalist bum’s rush to try to convince a skeptical world that the same people who created the post-1945 model of IMF-led globalization and giga-corporate entities more powerful than governments, destroying traditional agriculture in favor of toxic agribusiness, dismantling living standards in industrialized countries to flee to cheap labor countries like Mexico or China, will now lead the effort to correct all their abuses? We are being naïve if we swallow this.”	William Engdahl
Malcolm Roberts	“It’s called the largest ever wealth transfer from taxpayers to globalist corporations - in this case Big Pharma. As usual, govt is the middle man & the means of extracting money from taxpayers. Legal yet immoral.”	Malcolm Roberts	7 August 2021
