Globalization is the process of interaction and integration among people, companies, and governments worldwide. As shown in the globalization diagram, academic literature has commonly divided globalization into three major areas: economic globalization, cultural globalization, and political globalization. It should be noted here that the following form of globalization diagram showcases important areas of global interactions. The oldest dominant form of globalization is embodied globalization, the movement of people. A second form is an agency-extended globalization, the circulation of agents of different institutions, organizations, and polities, including imperial agents. Object-extended globalization, a third form, is the movement of commodities and other objects of exchange.
