  The Political Impact of Globalization With the accelerated development of globalization, international relations have become more and more close, and the political system has more and more significant influence on international relations. The political system is the organization and functioning mechanism within a country, while international relations are the interaction and interaction between countries.

On the one hand, the stability and effectiveness of the political system play an important role in the stability and harmony of international relations. A country with a stable political system, reasonable distribution of power, impartiality and transparency can better maintain domestic stability and social order, thus providing a reliable partner for the international community. For example, countries under democratic systems tend to pay more attention to human rights and the rule of l...

Impact of globalization on culture Globalization is an important trend in modern society, not only changing the economic and political landscape, but also having a profound impact on culture.
