ABSTRACT

With the relentless march of technological progress, globalization has insinuated itself into myriad facets of our world, leaving an indelible imprint on the domains of politics, economics, culture, and more. Empowered by the omnipresence of the networked society, globalization has wrought its influence upon individuals and societies, touching upon multiple dimensions of existence. In this milieu, a schism emerges, with proponents asserting that the fusion of the networked society and globalization begets numerous advantages, propelling societal advancement, while dissenting voices staunchly reject this contention, citing a litany of challenges and deleterious repercussions. It is an incontrovertible truth that the amalgamation of the internet and globalization will inevitably engender certain challenges, yet the scale tips unequivocally in favor of the advantages far outweighing the disadvantages. Consequently, this treatise shall embark upon a comprehensive exploration, delving into the profound symbiosis between networked societies and globalization. It shall elucidate the intricate web of positive and negative interrelationships that underpin this complex dynamic.
