This class will give you an idea of what globalisation is, and how it affects relations between countries. Globalisation is a fundamental force in the world, and despite the problems of financial crises, global pandemics, and trade wars, the processes driving globalisation are not going away. If you know what globalisation is, you can see how studying at APU will give you extra insight to face the challenges in Japan and the world.
