11. FORMS OF GLOBALIZATION Economic Cultural Political

12. Economic Globalization It refers to the interconnectedness of economies through trade and the exchange of resources there is a two-way structure for technologies and resources

13. Example country like the Philippines will sell their technologies to countries, which lack these, and natural resources from developing countries are sold to the developed countries that need them

14. Example Internationalized production and global supply chains now standardized for manufacturer of many device, it ranging from cars to smartphones. Take a look of what is happening to Huawei; its parts came from manufacturers in the Western countries which were affected by political clash between China and US.

17. Example The trading of commodities such as coffee or avocados. Coffee is said to be originally from Ethiopia and consumed in the Arabid region. Nonetheless, due to commercial trades after the 11th century, it is nowadays known as a globally consumed commodity
