Trends
Global trends affect regions,countries, industries, and even
firms in heterogeneous ways.
They are tornadoes, not tsunamis.
Trends entail both challenges and
opportunities. Uncertainty will be a key feature of
the 21st century: the new normal.

Some Initial Discussion Questions
As of today, do more people in the world
live in cities or in the countryside?
Are there more people suffering from
hunger or from obesity?
Are the largest consumer markets, in the
U.S. and Europe, or in China and India?
Is the number of failed states greater or
smaller than the number of dictatorships?
8/12/2019 AGT (1) Globalization.pdf

Some answers
More people live in cities than in the
countryside since 2009.
There are more people suffering from
obesity than from hunger since about 2010.
The largest consumer markets are in Europe
and the U.S. today, but within 20 years they
will be in India and China.
There are more failed states than
dictatorships since the late 1980s.

What is the Global Economy?
Increasing flows of labor, money, goods, services,
and information.
It is notjust a discrete linking of nation-states. Its an economy with the capacity to work as a
unit in real time on a planetary scale.*
It is very different from the world economy ofthe 14th, 16th, and 19th centuries.
In its present form, it came into being during the
1980s.

Why so Fascinating?
Because it puts two kinds of liberalism on a
collision course:
Liberalism of the market, which is boundary-transgressing. The division of labor is limited
by the extent of the market.
Liberalism of citizenship, which seeks toestablish and maintain boundaries. Relationship
between an individual and a state, with
associated individual rights and obligations.

Definitions
Gross Domestic Product:
The total value of goods and services produced
in an economy during a given year.
The economy consists of:
Households.
Firms.Financial institutions.
Government.
8/12/2019 AGT (1) Globalization.pdf
23/68
Simple Calculations: Ratio
Ratio: one number divided by another.
Example: The total dependency ratio is the
ratio of the sum of the population aged 0-19 andthat aged 65+ to the population aged 20-64. For
China, it is about 0.5 nowadays but is predicted
to grow to 1.0 by 2075.
A ratio can also be expressed as a percentage
(%) by multiplying it by 100.
8/12/2019 AGT (1) Globalization.pdf
24/68
Simple Calculations: Rate
Rate: is the pace or rhythm at which amagnitude changes over a certain period of
time. Typically expressed as a percentage.
Example: The GDP growth rate in 2012 was7.8% in China, compared to just 2.2% in the
United States.
Example: The inflation rate in China during
2012 was 2.6%.
Nota bene: The unemployment rate is more
properly called the unemployment ratio.
8/12/2019 AGT (1) Globalization.pdf
25/68
Simple Calculations: Index Number
Index number: reveals the change in a
magnitude between two points in time. The
first of those two points is called the base.The base is typically set at a value of 100.
Example: If Chinese GDP grew by 7.8% during
2012, then the index number for the end of theyear is 107.8.
8/12/2019 AGT (1) Globalization.pdf
26/68
Simple Calculations: Proportion
Proportion: A measure of a part with respect
to the whole. Typically expressed as a
percentage (%).Example: The income of the one-percent richest
Americans was 7.8% of total income in 1970.
By 2012, it had grown to 19.3%.
8/12/2019 AGT (1) Globalization.pdf
27/68
Large Numbers
In the United States:
1 billion = 1,000,000,000
1 trillion = 1,000,000,000,000
In your part of the world, perhaps:
1 billion = 1,000,000,000,000
1 trillion = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000
In this class, we will use the U.S.
convention.

International Trade
Cross-border flows of goods &services.
Why does it take place? Theory of
comparative advantage. Free trade may be good overall, but
it does generate winners & losers.

Absolute Advantage
Adam Smith (1776)If a foreign country can supply us with a
commodity cheaper than we ourselves can
make it, better buy it of them with some partof the produce of our own industry, employed
in a way in which we have some advantage.

Drivers of globalization.

50/68
Isomorphism
Is the tendency of actors, organizations or
other types of entities to become more
similar or to adopt common patterns ofbehavior over time.
Isomorphism can result from several
dynamics, which we shall call drivers.
8/12/2019 AGT (1) Globalization.pdf
51/68
Examples of Isomorphism
The modern nation-state. The ministry of foreign affairs.
Prohibition of child labor.
General schooling. Tourism promotion offices.
Newspapers.
Blue jeans.
Pop music.
Drivers of Globalization:
8/12/2019 AGT (1) Globalization.pdf

Drivers of Globalization:
Isomorphic PressuresDriver: Mechanism: Examples:
Normative Shared ideologies, worldviews,
frameworks, or templates
Keynesianism, neo-
liberalism, democracy,
legal traditions, culture
Coercive Power, dependency Hegemonic states,multilateral organizations,
multinational firms
Mimetic Frequency-based imitation to
cope with uncertainty and/or
secure legitimacy
Bandwagons, fads,
fashions
Emulative Trait-based imitation driven by
the legitimacy of the source
Hegemonic states, states
considered to be
successful or innovative
Competitive Performance Markets
8/12/2019 AGT (1) Globalization.pdf
53/68
Boundary Conditions
Certain countries are more exposed to
isomorphic pressures:
Dependent states.States more embedded in trade.
Democratic states.
States with smaller levels of public spending. Discussion question: Why are countries
with smaller levels of public spending more
exposed?
