Ok, I will give two definition sof Globalisation.

The short version:

Globalisaiton - Becoming more interconnected in various ways and being less able to avoid the consequences of what others do.

The long version*:

Globalisation is a multi dimensional process characterised by:
-The acceptence of a set of economic rules for the entire world designed to maximise profits and poductivity by universalising markets and production.
-The expansion of a specific form of social organisation based on information as the main source of production and power.
-The reduction of the Welfare State, privatisation of social services, flexibilisation of labour relations and weaker trade unions.
-De facto transfer to transnational organisations of the control of national economic policy instruments, such as monetary policy, interest rates and fiscal policy.
-The dissemination of common cultural values, but also the re-emergence of nationalism, cultural conflict and social movement.
