Globalization is an spacecraft, the direction of which has to be influenced by humans of all corners of the globe to make the universe look rosier not only for the ones who are well on board but also for the ones who are struggling to get on board. By its nature, globalization covers a multitude of disciplines, communities, and cultures. This, of course, allows for a variety of viewpoints, be they economic, social, or political. The definitions are thus supposed to reflect some of those viewpoints. This paper is an attempt to delve into various dimensions and implications of globalization. The measurement scale provided by KOF for measuring worldwide globalization trends has also been touched upon so that the best globalized countries can be viewed.
