From Archaic Globalization to Contemporary Globalization:
Now that we have discussed the Evolution of Globalization, we can move on to the concept of Contemporary globalization. Contemporary globalization is quite different from archaic globalization in every manner. The main factors behind archaic globalization were religion, language, trade or colonization (in later cases) but the chief pillars on which the building of contemporary globalization is built are capitalism, consumerism and nationalism. The last two centuries witnessed the advent of a new phenomenon, Industrialization, which later lead to the inception of above discussed factors of capitalism, consumerism. These phenomenons were further fueled by the isolation of communism and proliferation of free/market economics ideas. The communist ideas were isolated from the global forum after the end of cold war while the United States, the new super power emerged as the main player, indeed the chief participant, in the growth of world capitalism. The existence of communism was a hindrance to the geographical range of capitalism; however its rollback led to a rapid spread of capitalist market principles on the global arena. In contrast to archaic globalization elements of culture, language and religion, contemporary globalised world economy pervaded with global goods and services (Steans, 2005; Pettiford, 2005; Diez, 2005).
Much of the contemporary trade and commerce involved trans-border marketing of global multinational brands which has made protectionism too unfavorable or too difficult to practice in most cases which enable the strong producers which are in turn represented by strong countries to grow even stronger and thus, even richer (Landes, 1999). This practice allows these multinationals established in economically and politically strong countries to grow large in size and earn enormous profits, thus creating a global wealth imbalance
This global wealth imbalance than breeds an exponential chain reaction of small and large scale political conflicts around the globe (Gray, 1999).
从古老的全球化对当代全球化：
现在，我们已经讨论了全球化的演进，我们可以移动到当代全球化的概念。当代全球化是以各种方式完全不同的全球化。在古老的全球化的主要因素是宗教，语言，贸易或定植（在以后的情况）但主要支柱上，当代全球化的建筑物是资本主义和民族主义，消费主义。过去的两个世纪见证了一个新的现象，产业化的到来，后来导致上述因素资本主义诞生以来，消费主义。这些现象进行了进一步的共产主义和自由市场经济思想的增殖/隔离了。独立于全球论坛，冷战结束后，美国的共产主义思想，新的超级大国的出现为主体，事实上的主要参与者，在世界资本主义的发展。共产主义的存在是资本主义的地理范围内的障碍；然而其回滚导致在全球舞台上的资本主义市场原则的迅速蔓延。相反，文化的全球化因素，语言和宗教，当代全球化的世界经济中弥漫着全球商品和服务（第恩斯，帕蒂福特，2005；2005；迭，2005）。
大部分的当代贸易涉及跨边境跨国品牌营销已成为保护主义太不利或太难的做法在大多数情况下，这使它在强大的生产者将强大的国家的代表变得更强，因此，更丰富的（兰德斯，1999）。这种做法允许这些跨国公司建立了强大的国家在经济上和政治上生长大尺寸和赚取了巨大的利润，从而创造一个全球财富的不平衡
全球财富的不平衡比品种的小规模和大规模的政治冲突的全球指数链反应（Gray，1999）。
