Throughout the last decades, globalization became a real phenomenon, but history tells us that it is actually not a new social, historical phenomena, but has, under different names and manifestations, been with us for a long time.

Globalisation is the integration between different countries and economies and the increased impact of international influences on all aspects of life and economic activity. There are many dimensions to globalisation, and there are many statistics that can be used as measures of globalisation. The major indicators of integration between economies include: international trade and trade flows, income gap between developed, emerging and developing economies and migration of labour force. Each of these indicators provides an insight into the way in which economies are now linked to each other and the extent to which a global economy is emerging.

This is commonly measured by the percentage increase in real Gross Domestic Product. Quality of life refers to the overall wellbeing of individuals within a country according to their material living standards and a range of other indicators such as education levels, environmental quality and health standards. 1 This essay will discuss the effects of globalisation on economic growth and the quality of life on the Australian and Indonesian economy.

For example the cost of long distances phones calls have dropped significantly over the years.

Globalisation is different in the 21st century to how it was in the 20th century, and though the most underlying difference is the rapid development of technology, there are subtle ways in which it has changed – and ways in which it has not changed at all.
