Nowadays, the world is being globalized.; Globalized or open economy is the one which has liberalized the trade and capital movement (Thorbecke et al 2003, p.154). Thorbecke et al also noted that openness through trade, foreign direct investment and financial market increase the flow of good and capital across the national borders (ibid. p.156). Consequently, most countries participate in international trade as their economies are opened to compete with others. The most affected by this competition are the emergent industries.
Emergent or infant industry is a nuance of industries in their earliest stage of development/growth (Tribe 2000, p.31). Emergent industries can be divided into two groups; : absolute emergent is a new industry which does not exist elsewhere, usually is technology intensive and are predominant in developed countries (Castel-Branco 2002, p.46); and relative emergent industries are often new in the countries of origin, usually developing countries, but in other countries, such as industrialized world, they are already mature or develop (Castel-Branco 2002, p.48). The termsDefinitions of developing economy, under developed or less developed are used to describe countries that are economically backward and that need enhancement of living condition (Sen 1988 p.11).
The essay will analyze the challenges of emergent firms in a context of globalized and underdeveloped world. Because of the narrow scope, the essay will only be discussing three challenges, namely, technology capability, industries reputation and availability capital for investment. Firstly, it will discuss the problems related to technology capability. Secondly, it will examine the role of reputation for emergent industries in national and internati...

...ty of the firms to provide stronger credibility and the capacity of the countries to create a good environment to develop these industries throughout better infrastructures. The solution of these problems is the intervention of the State by selecting some potential infant industries to protect. This intervention is necessary because the market per se can notcannot manage to deal with these issues. This must be done by taking into account first of all the domestic market so that it may well encourage openness to foreign trade (UNIDO 1997, p.27). Therefore, the Government must formulate policies in order to protect the new industries to guide them to the right direction for competing in international market otherwise the industries alone can not achieve this stage of mature. This means the infant industries in developing countries can die before achieve its mature.
Many developed and developing countries want to protect their own industries such as India who is still reluctant to give foreign firms greater access to its economy, as shown by the political row over its much delayed decision to open up the supermarket sector to global giants
(c) Create an expanded and secure market for the goods and services produced in their territories.
Newly industrialized countries are countries that have left third world country classification but have yet to reach first world country status. China is an example of a newly industrialized country, it's still heavily dependent on manufacturing (which makes it dependent on other countries), it has poor human rights records, and is overcrowded and poor, but it has been seeing growth towards the goal of becoming a first world country. China's industry is significantly based on: counterfeit goods, automobiles, and other manufacturing.
Nowadays, Globalization is a main trend for the world economic. The world’s economy has become fully integrated. There are no barriers and borders to trade around the world.
In States vs. Markets, Herman Schwartz presents two economic development strategies that have been employed by late industrial developers in order to either take advantage of existing comparative advantages or facilitate rapid industrial growth through state intervention and provision in order to gain a competitive foothold in world markets. Schwartz demonstrates how China was able to employ elements of these development strategies to generate capital from an abundant rural labour supply in order to pursue industrial development and attract foreign investment through economic reform starting in the late 1970's.
The world has changed a lot due to globalization. Now the well-being and prosperity of countries and nations is highly dependent on healthy international trade and investment relationships. The key factor underlying this prosperity is their openness to the global economy. While the global market is becoming increasingly integrated, it is important for the European Union and Canada to succeed in all areas of global commerce.
Trade among these communities may have been hampered by borders, politics, and cultural differences. However in today’s world, globalization has been accelerated by the explosion of technology, the Internet, and a reduction of social and political barriers. According to Hill (2013), “the first driver of globalization is the decline of barriers to the free flow of goods, services, and capital that has occurred since WWII. The second driver is the development of communication, information processing, and transportation
Globalization becomes important today because increasing in depending to the world. Globalization can be determined as increasing in trade and exchange in open economy, integrated and borderless international economy (Intriligator, 2003). Globalization is often used to refer to economic globalization. The integration of national economies into the international economy through trade, foreign direct investment, capital flows, migration, and the spread of technology. Besides that, globalization also can be defined as process of greater interdependence among countries and their citizens. It consists of increased integration of product and resource markets across nations via trade, immigration and foreign investment-that is via international flows of goods and services, of people and of investment such as equipment, factories, stocks and bonds. It also includes non-economic elements such as culture and the environment.
The development of free-market economics has, since the 18th century, resulted in the spread of a set of ideas, creeds and practices all over the developed and much of the developing world. Today, the globalisation of trade, capital, technology and innovation has accelerated competitive conditions for businesses all over the world. Globalisation may be defined as the opening of markets to the forces of neoliberalism and capitalism; it is characterised by the free movement of people, talent, skills, capital (intellectual, social and economic) across international borders. All kinds of barriers have either been swept away, diffused or made obsolete by the forces of globalisation: trade barriers, subsidies, geographical boundaries, linguistic and cultural differences. Technological advancements have pulled the world closer and, in the process, affected how labour relations and worker/employer relations operate and develop. The multinational corporation as well as the public sector alike are affected by global competition.
As the time goes by, the world has been transforming into a global scene. Globalization is a process of interaction and integration among the people, world perspective, products, enterprises, governments of different nations, and other aspects of culture, and society that is completed in the twentieth century. This process has impacts on the environment, on culture, on political frameworks, on economic development and prosperity, and on human physical well-being in societies all over the world. But policy and technological developments of the past few decades have spurred increases in cross-border trade, investment, and migration so large that many people believe that the world has entered a qualitatively new stage in its economic development (The Levin Institute).
The expression "globalization" is generally utilized as a part of business rings and matters of trade and profit to depict the expanding internationalization of businesses for merchandise and administrations, the budgetary framework, companies and commercial ventures, innovation, and rivalry. In the globalized economy, partitions and national points of confinement have liberally diminished with the departure of tangles to market access. Furthermore, there have been decreases in transaction expenses and layering of time and separation in global transactions.
The objective of this paper is to examine how the development of a textile industry contributes to economic growth in the global economy. Because textile manufacturing is a labor-intensive industry, developing countries are able to utilize their labor surplus to enter the market and begin the process of building an industrial economy. Emerging economies then look outward to develop an export strategy based on their comparative advantage in labor costs.
Countries around the world have closer over past few decades due to growing integration between economies. The main cause behind this growth has been globalization. There can be various definitions of globalization according to different aspects like economic activities, political, technological, cultural interactions. It brings the countries closer to each other and make them more interrelated through providing unrestrained trade and financial exchange. The process of globalisation not only includes opening up of world trade, development of advanced means of communication, internationalisation of financial markets, growing importance of MNC’s, population migrations and more generally increased mobility of persons, goods, capital, data and ideas but also infections, diseases and pollution. Opening up the economy to globalization can have both favourable and unfavourable impact on the country’s economic growth, environment, human capital, cultural dominance etc. Since globalization has been a hot topic over last few decades, it becomes imperative to study its impact on the economic growth of the country.
The process of globalization allows the global market to include products and services from all the companies around the world, including all the investments that is across national borders. Indeed, many American companies have taken their merchandise, manufacturing and services to invest in other countries. However, this has produced a negative effect in the global economy. The American companies
A greater level of entrepreneurial business opportunities will exist in a poor, developing economy, rather than in a rich, developed economy because the needs and opportunities are more widespread, they have a different and greater cultural awareness, and have the opportunity to assess industries that have a high level of market risk before entering them. Although there are many factors that can affect entrepreneurship in these countries and prevent entrepreneurship form existing like a lack of finance, difficulty recruiting, a lack of innovation, high barriers to entry and issues with their government.
