Question
Why is technology considered to be a critical element of globalisation? Explain.
✓

Answer

Without technology– improved means of communication and transport– globalisation would have not been possible:
  1. Inventions like telephone, internet and smart phone have reduced the physical distances and brought us closer.
  2. The flow of ideas, people, capital and commodities have also helped the process of globalisation.
  3. Means of transport such as aeroplanes, fast moving trains and bullet trains have also reduced the physical gap between people.
  4. So technology is the important and critical element of globalisation.
