Dimensions of globalisation: flows of capital, labour, products, services and information; global marketing; patterns of production, distribution and consumption
Globalisation moves five things around the world: money, workers, goods, services and information. These flows change where things get made, sold and used.
Real World
Nike designs trainers in Oregon, sources rubber from Malaysia and synthetic fabrics from Taiwan, manufactures in Vietnam, and sells globally via its website — a single product illustrating capital, labour, product, and information flows simultaneously.
Exam Focus
Use named data or statistics (e.g. trade volumes, FDI figures) when evaluating globalisation's dimensions — qualitative description alone will not reach Level 3.
