WGU Global Economics for Managers (C211) Exam - Topic 4 Question 7 Discussion

Posted by Jeff on May 15, 2026 at 07:15 PM

Which statement describes one of the three views of globalization?

Suggested Answer: B

Globalization can be viewed from different perspectives. One view treats globalization as a relatively new force that has intensified in recent decades due to major advances in technology, transportation, communication, global finance, and international trade liberalization. This view emphasizes that modern globalization is different from earlier cross-border exchange because firms, consumers, capital markets, and supply chains are now connected at much greater speed and scale. Option B is correct because it captures the ''recent force'' view of globalization. Option A is too idealistic because globalization creates both benefits and costs. Option C is incorrect because globalization is not primarily an agreement to prevent wars. Option D is also incorrect because globalization often increases innovation through competition and knowledge transfer.
