Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Globalization, Political Economics, grade: 2.0, The Open University, language: English, abstract: The common perception of Globalisation is that it is an exclusive human affair. This is especially due to the dominance of economics in every layer of society. This paper challenges this assumption with the examples of plate tectonics and Antarctica. These examples make clear that although human agency is a significant influence in causing Globaisation, it has no monopoly over the phenomenon.
