Question

Explain the role of silk route in globalization.​

Answer 1

ANSWER :-


Globalization generally refers to the increased interdependence of the world’s economies signified by the circulation of information, money, people and goods across national boundaries. It has of late given rise to the domination of world’s market by a selected number of transnational corporations. However, since time immemorial, different countries were related to one another through geographical spread of ideas, social norms and trading commodities. This pre-modern phase of globalisation is known as archaic globalisation. Silk Road is an instance. It is a network of interlinking trade routes or silk routes across the Afro-Eurasian landmass which carried silk in the main to and fro. China was the first producer of silk in the world. Since second century B.C., China exported silk to different countries as far as the countries on the Mediterranean Coast along different routes. The purpose of the present paper is to analyse the pattern of globalization which took place in several regions of Eurasia from the seventh to the twelfth centuries, using silk as a thread of cultural and economic interaction in the context of the globalisation process today. The globalization process created by interactions and exchange of commodities, culture, technology and religion in the ancient world sought to enrich the world without destroying its cultural diversity.
