2.0 Concept of globalization
Globalization is the process of making interaction among the different countries of the world through various sectors like economy, culture, population, exchanging of goods and services, technological factors and other important factors (Shiva, 2015). Globalization is an old term as people made buying and selling process from each other at great distances for many years. Nowadays globalization uses particularly to express the international trading system but it definitely has an effect on the environment, culture, politics and progress of the life of the people (Scholte, 2016). The powerhouse countries of the world refer to globalization as the process of developing the economy and the standards of living and releasing people out of poverty. But others have some different thoughts about globalization as by the starting of the discharged international free market, the multinational companies of the western world have only be benefited. Around the world, 1.2 billion people are still facing an extreme level of poverty which makes the concept of globalization a little controversial. But with all of these discussions globalization is needed for the world for spreading of products, technology, information etc (Daniele and Jonathan, 2015).
It increases the chance of getting jobs in other countries across the world. By taking the advantage of free trading, the countries improve their economic field. Globalization is not an easy process to progress though as there are constraints to the continuation of globalization (Bird and Kopp, 2019). It is necessary to understand those internal contradictions in the global system which affect the progression of globalization through the world. In this report, these internal contradictions are going to be discussed. Environmental constraints are also responsible for which globalization is not being up to the mark. These problems are briefly described in this report by which the reasons behind lacking globalization are clearly expressed (Scholte, 2016). It is necessary to realize these problems and the reasons which hamper globalization but for all the countries it is also important to find out the way to remove these constraints. There are some technological factors which can be applied by solving these problems and by doing that the whole world can get the advantages of globalization system. In the later part of this report, it is also discussed that how technology can help to overcome these limitations (Dermine, 2017).

Nowadays in both public and private sectors the delivery of services changes from manual to electronic systems which is the reason for the advancement of business communities all over the world (George, 2015). International trading is now so much easy by using the technology which removes the major hurdles of globalization like trade barriers, lack of common ethical standards, transportation problems, transportation cost, delay in information exchange etc. Software experts can easily perform their work by using the network with different companies all over the world (Stiglitz, 2016).

Creation and growth of global market largely depend on the advancement of technological sectors…………………………
