Dimensions of Globalization: Its Consequences in the Kurdistan Region

Abstract

This research is an attempt to reach a scientific analysis of all the different dimensions of globalization, and what this phenomenon leaves of different effects and impacts on all aspects of society. In addition, this research is an accurate understanding of all the challenges and problems that came with this problematic concept, and that the complexity of globalization and its different readings are among the reasons that led to the emergence of two sides of supporters and deniers. The main objective behind this research is to show the dimensions of globalization and its negative and positive effects that have effects on all social systems, in addition to that it is an attempt to identify the requirements of this concept and the stages it went through. We believe that this research is of great importance, because it becomes a scientific resource that includes dealing with a group of disparate concepts and multiple theories that researchers specialized in this field can benefit from as an academic and scientific source in their studies. The nature of the research necessitated that we rely on the descriptive, analytical, and critical approach, because it is the most appropriate approach with the topics that we have studied within the contents of this research, as all opinions and ideas that came in this field were criticized. At the conclusion of this research, we have come to the conclusion that globalization is a new concept, but at the same time it is a social and historical phenomenon that has roots in the history of mankind, where there has been trade and transportation since ancient times between peoples, and the Kurdish society dealt positively and self-confidently with this new concept.
