Essay from the year 2003 in the subject Communications - Miscellaneous, grade: D (1,5), Macquarie University (Media Department), course: Media and the Asia Pacific, language: English, abstract: Globalisation describes the major changes our society is going through, including the revolution in transport and new technology. All those points go along with each other, therefore a separation of economy and media is not advisable. These changes have contributed towards the expansion of the world economy, caused major changes in the composition and location of productio n and consumption activities, and reduced the ability of national and local governments to act independently and unobserved. As a result, globalisation has reshaped the way millions of people earn their living and the way societies are organised. This is not at last a result of the globalisation of the media. The media must be seen as an economical product. Globalisation is a multilateral process influencing everyone. The difference is just the way e.g. Asia deals with it. This paper will first describe the various meanings of globalisation and their indicators, followed by an analysis of the engines as well as dimensions of globalisation. Next, the effects of globalisation are highlighted. Finally, this paper ends with a conclusion.
