The information technology revolution which has made it very difficult for governments to control cross-border capital movements, even if they have political incentives to do so. Governments can still restrict the multinationalization of production, but they have increasingly chosen to liberalize because of the macroeconomic benefits (EOS) economy of scale.the three major components of international market integration: trade, multinational production, and international finance.
1- Improvement of transportation and logistics (one ton of coffee transport cost only 1% of the price)2- Containerization3- Improved Technology and telecommunication systems4- Growth of MNC 65,000 MNC (1990 was only 7000)5- Reduced tarrif barriers (WTO)6- Firms exploiting gains from economies of scale to gain increased specialization. This is an important feature of new trade theory.

(e.g. European Union, NAFTA, ASEAN)8-Growth of global media.9- Global Trade Cycle countries are increasingly interconnected10- Financial system increasingly global in nature, US affected all major banks in other countries who had bought financial derivatives from US banks and mortgage companies11- Improved mobility of capital (global interconnectedness of global financial markets)12- Increased mobility of labor
MNC knows a lot about a great many countries and congenially adapts to supposed differences (accommodating mode to visible national differences) customized the product to suit every country (Shapes, forms, colors, technology) By contrast the Global C; knows everything about one great thing (about the absolute need to be competitive on a worldwide basis as well as national and seeks constantly to drive down prices by standardized market rather than many customized marketsRecently the trend is Think globally and act locally!
Local domestic markets tried to standardize world practice by exporting domestic products and processes without accommodation or change and have failed miserably!Lower price, Automatized services than manual even if it fail to fulfill all their preferences.Clear example is : German consumers prefer buying low priced Italian machines
Japanese companies operate almost entirely without marketing department or Marketing R & DGE Chairman John F. Welch Jr. contributed that they have done it not by looking with mechanistic thoroughness at the way markets are different but rather by searching for meaning with a deeper wisdom, They have discovered the one great thing all markets have in common: (Desire for dependable, world standard modernity in all things, at aggressively low prices and irresistible values!Now a day the trend is : a combination of product reliability and quality, strong and sustained supported systems, aggressively low prices, and sales compensation packages
So is it Canadian, German, Italy, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, French, British or remain American or will turn to have no more flag with product standardization!
Imperialism: one country domination over another economic, political, cultural systemEconomic shock: such as recessions because we rely on each other so if something went wrong in one country the whole system is been affected ex. Worldwide recession in 2009
