Abstract
The  phenomenon   of globalization began  as simple trade exchanges, but  it has since developed  into a
multifaceted phenomenon  that affects all aspects of people lives and nations around the world, from the biggest
and most developed, which have millions of residents, to those with only a few thousand people and a small area.
Starting with the political, economic, social, cultural, technological, and exchange of experiences in all areas, the
advantages of this phenomena are widespread and diversified. There is no disputing the fact that everyone agrees
that raising the standard and quality of education is one of the top concerns for all nations, whether developed
and developing. Although education is first and foremost a fundamental human right, it may also be seen as a
tool for advancing economic growth in any nation and as a significant driver of productivity and efficiency in the
local, regional, and global economies. It is beyond dispute that resources (human, financial, and natural) are
important, but only effective utilization of those resources can guarantee ongoing economic progress and social
wellbeing.

1. Introduction
The  global economy  is the worldwide  economic  activity between different countries, which is considered
intertwined that can negatively or positively affect other countries. In short, the global economy refers to the
world economy,  composed of different economies of individual countries, with each economy. Globalization has
accelerated over the past century to the point that trade between nations has increased and cross-border
constraints on migration and commerce  have been  greatly eliminated. The resulting phenomenon is what a
global economy  is all about. People are now able to sell their wares in any market all over the world. Also,
consumers  enjoy a wider variety of goods and services that they can find from other countries and not just in
their own countries. The term globalization describes trends toward a more integrated and interdependent
global economy, which  means that national economies are transitioning from systems that are largely isolated
from barriers to investment and trade to systems that are increasingly impacted by distance, time zones, language,
and legal system differences. in open economies with declining trade and investment restrictions, and cultural.
Distance is shrinking as a result of advances in technology, culture is unifying, national economies are merging
into interdependent and integrated economies, thus creating a unique global system. Globalization is the
development  beyond the market and the world economy   and means the so-called world without borders, it
cannot be treated as a phenomenon  which has a fixed starting point and does not have a precise definition.
Globalization fostered the great mobility of people from one country to another and this has led to an interplay of
cultures through their cultural and social adaptation also expanded the technological knowledge which has made
this easier and faster phenomenon. And the word globalism itself does not include some countries with specific
characteristics or features, but by the name itself it means that it includes all countries of the globe. The benefits
of this phenomenon   are universal and very diverse starting from the political, economic, social, cultural,
technological benefits, exchange of experiences in all aspects.

2. What is Globalization - Definitions on Globalization
The  term globalization, which has been widely used  since the 1960s, still lacks a precise and exhaustive
definition. Such a thing makes it impossible to develop a theoretical and deterministic analysis, to enable the
creation of a framework within which we can coherently analyse the innumerable empirical evidences, which are
sometimes  rightly and sometimes without it towards this so modern phenomenon. In this regard, one of the
world's most famous economists Jagdish Bhagwati, writes: Non si ha ancora un'idea chiara, coerente e globale
di come funziona questa globalizzazione...e di come si pu6 farla funzionarla meglio.
     However, researchers in various fields have tried to define such a phenomenon. Thus, the world-famous
