''Examine the relationship between a country's gross national income (GNI) and its level of participation in globalisation.'' (15)

Introduction:
- Define GNI and Globalisation
- Give examples of the Globalised firms
- Explain why the level of participation in globalisation by the economy may fluctuate. (TNC/FDI/Trading bloc/Aid/Access to market)
- Give examples of the MEDC and LEDC's reliance on these globalisation brands.

Social: What effects of high level of participation in globalisation activities have on the standard of living?

Environmental: How can rapid globalisation effect the environment?

Economic: GNI could correspond to the purchasing power of the economy and based on that we can evaluate whether of the not the economy is likely to participate in globalisation activities.

Demographic: Mention statistics and case study Eg. Hong Kong or China or India for how changes in the demographic model effect the growth of the economy.

Examine the relationship between a country’s gross national income (GNI) and its level of participation in globalisation.

undefined

Introduction:
Define GNI and Globalisation
Give examples of a globalisation and the characteristics of the world's most globalised countries/cities e.g Hong Kong.

Integrate ideas by using SPEED
Social- How many people consume/buy their products?

Political- Are there any political advantages/disadvantages due to a high level of globalisation?

Environmental- What effect does globalisation have on the environment?

Economical- Link the relationship between GNI and globalisation. How does globalisation change when GNI increases or decreases?

Demographic- Who are the main users of the products and how does it change the economical representation of a country/city?

Point one:

Examine the relationship between a country's gross national income (GNI) and its level of participation in globalization.

Intro:
-Define globalization
- Why is there an uneven participation in globalization?
Access to ideas/media freedom
Trade opportunities (trading blocs/FDI/presence of TNCs)
Spatially, LICs in Sub-Saharan Africa as well as countries in eastern Europe and the Middle East have lowest levels of participation in globalization.

Point 1: A higher GNI means that the country is actively gaining money from services overseas and has a more flourishing national economy.
From a trading perspective: Countries with high GNI likely to have more TNCs that produce things overseas.
Example: US (high GNI and a high interdependence on trading goods with countries like China), they are likely to have companies such as Tesco and Macdonalds overseas.

Point 2: High GNI, however, doesn't necessarily mean engagement with trading blocs
Example: Switzerland, Denmark, Norway highest GNI but not in the EU.

Point 3: High GNI is also not related to social globalization.
- The key factor is mainly political, how much you allow the spread of ideas, and the government policies that allow businesses to come in.
- Israel, UAE, Kuwait very high GNI but its only because they sell oil to other companies, low social globalization.
