Globalisation is a multifaceted process that defies unique definition. Different authors emphasise different things about the causes and effects of globalisation, partly because of differences in the definition of the process; partly because of differences in focus; and partly because of different ideological predispositions about the process itself. In this paper, globalisation is treated as a process whereby national and international policy-makers proactively or reactively promote domestic and external liberalisation.
