Chapter 1, Part 4 Presentation borrowed from ?Osman Human Geography PowerPoints? Globalization The spread of economic activities from one country to many other regions. The establishment of integrated industrial and service sectors world-wide. Primarily an economic factor, it has enormous social and political consequences. 2 Principle factors-Transnational Corporations-most HQ in US, Europe or Japan have offices and production facilities in many parts of the world. These TNCs become dominant economically and politically in the countries where they operate. In many cases their total income exceeds the entire GNP of the host country. E.g. Wal-Mart earns more income than most Central American nations.

Geography, the word created by Eratosthenes, generally means to write about the Earth. Geography is divided amongst human and physical aspects. Human geography studies where and why human activities occur where they are. Physical geography studies where and why natural occurrences happen where they do. The book concentrates on two main topics- culture and economy. The first key issue in the first chapter is geography?s most important tool-mapping. A map is a two dimensional model of a part of the Earth or the whole Earth. During the first chapter the basic concepts of ?why? questions were introduced. Geographers study to find why each place on earth has their own unique ways.
