globalizations
UK spellingglobalisations
- 1Plural of globalization.
Scholars increasingly write about multiple globalizations rather than a single unified process.
The conference examined how earlier globalizations shaped today's trade networks.
Note
A plural only makes sense once the noun is counted. Globalization works both ways: as a mass noun for the process as a whole, and as a count noun for separate episodes or versions of it. That second use is what allows talk of earlier, rival or regional globalizations. The -ize spelling is standard in American English and in Oxford British usage, and globalisations is the -ise alternative.
