Etymology

The term 'globalism' emerged in the mid-20th century as globalization began to take on greater significance in political and economic discussions. It combines the prefix 'global,' which relates to the whole world, with the suffix '-ism,' indicating a principle or ideology. Early uses of the term were primarily associated with economic theories advocating for free trade and reduced barriers between nations. Over the decades, globalism has evolved to encompass a broader range of issues, including environmental sustainability, cultural exchange, and global governance. The rise of technology and communication has further propelled globalism, enabling instant connectivity across the globe. While globalism used to be seen as a progressive force, especially during the latter half of the 20th century, it has increasingly become a point of contention in political discourse, particularly with the rise of nationalism and populism in the 21st century. Critics argue that globalism can lead to a loss of identity and autonomy, while supporters believe it is essential for tackling collective challenges in a rapidly changing world.
