From the international economic point of view , there is an effect on all the societies due to international trades. International trades is actually nothing new and in the ancient times it is emerged with an interest of greater profits in the business, but on that time it did,nt affects the societies. Since 1990,s and afterwards the word "globalisation" came into existance and that actually has a greater effect on the society. Now it can be said that globalisation not only includes the business interests but also the adaption of neew cultures, food habits, tastes and choices. Examples are easily available in both the western and third world but emerging economies like india or its neighbouring countries. Easy availability of a foreign product boost up the minds these days to adapt new thing easily. For say, wearing rugged jeans in the country like India by womens are not so easy before 2000 or 1995. But as the foreign design clothes , advertisements in the televisions , mindsets by the public has changed simultaneously in a short span of time thus now people generally allows the women to wear jeans even in a conservative family too. With this globalisation , the entire scenerio got changed . Now people did,nt have time to cook food at the home as both the husband and wife started working outside to meet the requirements financially . Sometimes wives also work for their financial freedom . Earlier, rrequirement means food, clothing and house were the prime requirements but nowadays its got complexed. Luxury earlier has now changed into necessity just due to globalisation. Son of a farmer dont want to go to the field to do the same thing. He also wants to get civilised and moves towards city life and searching for jobs etc.
A very few parts of the world are untouched in this globalised world too like Africa except South Africa etc. where international trades are there like exports and imports but no gllobalisation at all, thus the lives there remains same.
Good effects are definitely there due to advancements in science and technology , cultures, medicines, modern amenities, modern gadgets etc etc, but bad effects are also there like unemployment of the backward peoples in the societies , insecurities in the societies, nuclear families , sudden divorces, living together without marriages, free sex and sexually transmitted diseases, a free world with no security and only opportunity etc etc are the bad effects of globalisation.
Moving forward means advancements and developments in the societies which takes place and people accepts those advancements as it moves on.
