Answer 2

Answer:

“Globalization” can be defined as the development of all the countries worldwide, in various fields, especially socio-economic and financial development. While globalisation has many positive impacts, there are certain “negative impacts of globalisation” as well. Poverty and conflict are those negative impacts. In order to develop their countries and to maintain that status, once achieved, the developed countries pool in resources from the under- developed countries, thus making their own resources unavailable to them, pushing them into extreme poverty. This often leads to conflict among the nations over various factors, mainly resources. This is how Globalization plays a role in poverty and conflict.
