Globalization has contributed to the intensification of worldwide social relations that continuously increases the interconnectedness of people from diverse cultures. Its implication creates possibilities in spreading new or certain ideas through accessible telecommunication and the internet. It is undeniable that Madura is also affected by globalization particularly its cultural practices. Madurese people have frequently been confronted with a problematic phenomenon in their marriage tradition because arranged marriage and early marriage are still commonly practiced and have been passed down over generations for a long time. Both of the practices give unfair treatment to women since they violate their autonomy and independence. As globalization opens access to a new perspective of life, as people can experience another culture by traveling or connected through the internet, it provides a huge influence on the way people think, reacts, and responds to their own culture or tradition. In connection with this phenomenon, this study is going to elucidate how young Madurese women who have been exposed to the use of media and the internet conceptualize their marriage ideas, whether they still follow the old tradition or they have constructed a new concept of marriage. By applying a qualitative method, this study will conduct an interview and distribute a questionnaire to young Madurese women studying at the University of Trunojoyo Madura. The results indicate that globalization to some extent constructs the new perception of marriage for young Madurese women and builds a variety of interpretations based on what and how they connect themselves with the world outside their community.

This article assesses the impact of globalization on welfare state effort in the OECD countries. Globalization is defined in terms of total trade, imports from low wage economies, foreign direct investment, and financial market integration. Welfare effort is analyzed in terms both of public spending (and separately on social service provision and income transfer programs) and taxation (effective rates of capital taxation and the ratio of capital to labor and consumption taxes). Year-to-year increases in total trade and international financial openness in the past three decades have been associated with less government spending. In contrast, integration into global markets has not been associated either with reductions in capital tax rates, or with shifts in the burden of taxation from capital to consumption and labor income. Moreover, countries with greater inflows and outflows of foreign direct investment tend to tax capital more heavily.

A striking change in the political party systems of many established democracies in recent years has been the rise to electoral and political prominence of right-wing populist parties. Moving beyond the usual anti-statism and racism attitudinal explanatory foci, this article posits that popular support for these parties is associated with the job insecurity that populist party leaders have attributed to deepening international economic integration, or economic globalization. The conceptualization of job insecurity is discussed and its expected relationship to the mercantilism of right-wing populist parties clarified. The hypothesis is tested in the specific context of support for Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party in the 1998 election to the Australian federal House of Representatives. The article concludes with a consideration of the wider implications of its findings.

ABSTRACT Globalization has been an irreversible trend in the world economic and social advances. China, as an indispensable developing power, is playing a significant role on the world stage. Language, as a cultural element, is also affecting the process of China's globalization. This paper aims to study the relationship between globalization and the cultural development of foreign language teaching and learning in China. It analyzes the reasons for the boost of foreign language teaching and learning in the age of knowledge economy. Language, conveying ideological, political and cultural connotations, carries more significance beyond its linguistic importance. In the context of globalization, therefore, language teaching and learning is a more complicated issue than a pure culture indicator.

The economic realities of recent years convincingly reveal the increased role of international integration and cooperation in the global development of the global community, the strengthening of the global trend in the formation of a single world economy.
An important feature of the development of the modern world is a strong link between the structure and the process of transforming the world economy. The boundaries between "national" and "international" in the world political system are blurred. Transnational flows of goods, services, labor, tourists, information, ideas and values ​​become stronger.
Globalization is a process that changes not only the external context in which the state operates, but also the very nature of the state and of the political communities in general. The interdependence of the modern world is manifested on the one hand in the emergence of global threats and, on the other, in increasing the social and economic benefits generated by countries' participation in globalization.
