Globalization profoundly impacts national identity and policy by fostering interconnectedness among nations. As cultures, economies, and ideas cross borders, individual countries may experience shifts in their national identity, as local traditions intertwine with global influences. This can lead to both cultural homogenization and a revitalization of local identities. Additionally, globalization often necessitates adjustments in national policies to remain competitive or address global challenges. Governments may embrace collaborative approaches to trade, immigration, and environmental sustainability, reflecting a broader understanding of their role within a global context.
