What profound influence does globalization have on national politics?

Second, the profound influence of economic globalization on international politics

Historical materialism holds that international economy determines international politics, and international politics reacts or affects international economy. According to the narrow concept of international politics, international politics refers to political behaviors and political relations between countries. This kind of political behavior and political relationship is the political activity and political relationship that sovereign countries carry out to realize their respective national interests and goals. The basic subject of international politics is a sovereign state, which has the highest jurisdiction at home and the right of independence abroad, and is the center of international politics. In addition, international organizations, multinational corporations, national alliances, interest groups, political parties, national or political leaders and decision makers can all become the main actors of international politics. All actors realize their own interests and goals through international political activities. The arrival of the era of economic globalization has impacted and influenced the traditional concept of state, including the concept of sovereignty and the operating mechanism of the state, and has had a far-reaching impact on the formation, tasks and characteristics of the world political structure. Its outstanding performance is as follows:

First, it has an impact on the concept of national sovereignty. National sovereignty is the foundation of national basic rights. It is a national right that is not attached to or subordinate to any other power at home and abroad. Under the circumstances that economic globalization has an impact on the economic field and other social life fields, it has also changed the traditional concept of sovereignty. Sovereignty means not only one's own independent power, but also respect for the sovereignty of other countries and the rights and obligations assumed by international cooperation. It shows the relativity of national sovereignty. There is no absolute sovereignty that is not bound by any law or subject to any conditions or restrictions. With the improvement of countries' awareness of the interdependence of human beings and the threats they face, more and more countries have begun to re-understand the relationship between safeguarding national sovereignty and ensuring the normal operation of international coordination and cooperation mechanisms from a global perspective. Countries should cede part of their sovereignty and establish an effective international use mechanism to safeguard national independence and fundamental interests.

second, the decentralization and weakening of state power. Due to the deepening of interdependence among countries in the world due to economic globalization, this growing interdependence exists between countries and between countries and international organizations. Therefore, no matter what the subjective will is, countries can no longer enjoy their sovereignty in internal affairs, foreign affairs and military affairs absolutely and supreme like the classic interpretation. That is to say, the country is increasingly constrained by external factors when dealing with domestic and foreign affairs. This will inevitably lead to the decentralization of power. This constraint includes the increasingly extensive influence and involvement of intergovernmental international organizations in world and regional affairs. For example, the power held by the United Nations agencies in some countries has long been above that of local governments and factions. With its strong scientific and economic strength, multinational corporations influence and even influence the decision-making of the host government. Other international non-governmental organizations, such as religious groups, political party alliances and trade union organizations, will also exert influence on some sovereign countries under suitable conditions.

Third, countries are more cooperative and coordinated in handling international affairs. Due to the economic globalization, the interdependence of international political relations has been strengthened, which makes compromise, cooperation and survival become the general trend of international relations. Because of the more and more extensive influence and intervention of world and regional affairs. For example, the power held by the United Nations agencies in some countries has long been above that of local governments and factions. With its strong scientific and economic strength, multinational corporations influence and even influence the decision-making of the host government. Other international non-governmental organizations, such as religious groups, political party alliances and trade union organizations, will also exert influence on some sovereign countries under suitable conditions.

Third, countries are more cooperative and coordinated in handling international affairs. Due to the economic globalization, the interdependence of international political relations has been strengthened, which makes compromise, cooperation and survival become the general trend of international relations. Because the rules of world economic and political development are no longer the traditional "zero deduction", but are replaced by "win-win". The security of a country is no longer based on the insecurity of other countries, and the prosperity of a country does not need to be based on the weakness of other countries. Therefore, in the environment of economic globalization, we should not only strengthen cooperation and establish an effective international cooperation mechanism, but also understand that effective cooperation in the international economy is based on reasonable compromise, because necessary compromises and concessions are the premise of the most effective international cooperation. Therefore, cooperation and compromise in international politics are gradually replacing conflicts and struggles and becoming the main means to deal with current international relations.

fourth, economic globalization has an impact on the world political structure. The world political pattern is a structural state formed by sovereign countries and groups of countries in a certain period of time. This structural state reflects the political relationship between countries and maintains the stability of the world political system. The international political pattern generally includes unipolar pattern, bipolar pattern and multipolar pattern. The era of economic globalization will lead to the following changes: first, the factors that determine the change of the pattern have changed. It is generally believed that the factors that determine the change of the world political pattern lie in the change of power status and the role of the law of unbalanced economic development. In the era of globalization, apart from the above two reasons, international morality plays a much bigger role in international life than in the past. International morality here refers to the international code of conduct that is increasingly accepted by all countries in the world, such as international justice, peace, opposition to aggression, opposition to racial discrimination, opposition to terrorism, safeguarding world environmental security and international social stability. Today, the measure of a country's role in the world structure or whether it can become an important pole depends not only on its economic strength or military strength, but also on whether it can safeguard international morality in international affairs. Second, the tasks facing the world political structure are different. The main problem in the era of bipolar pattern is that a superpower tries to gain military and political superiority over another superpower and control the leading power of world politics. In the era of globalization, the main task facing the world political structure will be to solve global problems, such as environment, security, pollution and controlling the proliferation of nuclear weapons. Because no superpower can solve these problems alone. This requires that the world political structure is based on multipolar cooperation. If confrontation is more than cooperation in the bipolar structure, then cooperation is more than confrontation in the era of globalization. Third, globalization will inevitably lead to multipolarization. Although there are different understandings of the world political pattern at present, such as the five-pole theory, the three-pole theory and the infinite theory, and the views on what is a "pole" are not the same, on the whole, it is believed that the general characteristics and trends of the world political pattern are multi-level. As a result of the formation of global production, trade and financial networks, all countries are involved, and each country faces the same opportunities and challenges, thus increasing the number of protagonists on the international stage. Moreover, as the world economy is increasingly closely linked, the status of developing countries in the social development strategy of developed countries has improved, the contradiction between the North and the South has eased, and the gap between the North and the South has gradually narrowed. Some developing countries will emerge as an important pole in the political structure. Because economic globalization has promoted economic integration, the emergence of various regional and regional organizations has also increased the multipolarization of the world political structure.

Third, the era of globalization requires a change in the way countries handle internal affairs and diplomacy.

In terms of internal affairs, the internal jurisdiction of countries is impacted and affected by globalization, and the highest political sovereignty of the traditional national central government in internal affairs will be shared by local governments, enterprises and even individuals to varying degrees. At the same time, with the development of informatization and economic internationalization, the state's control over enterprises and the interference of industrial policies will be weakened. Of course, this does not mean that the government is no longer important, but that the traditional way of thinking and management of the government must be changed. The history of human society shows that at every critical turning point in the development of productive forces, the government system will inevitably change accordingly, otherwise the government will become an obstacle to economic development. The financial crisis in Southeast Asia fully demonstrates the importance of the role of the government in the era of economic globalization, and it also shows that the reform of government institutions and functions is the general trend. The government in the era of globalization should have the characteristics of strong leadership, streamlined organization, high efficiency, administration according to law, limited intervention, authority and honesty. At the same time, the government should be clear about its role, that is, the government is a government organ that maintains public order with public power, and maintains the dignity of the law with compulsory power institutions and measures. It provides laws, orders, systems and regulations, not parents, nannies and business owners. In a word, the era of globalization poses a severe challenge to the management of national internal affairs. Facing the challenge, the government must renew its ideas, emancipate its mind and take the initiative to change in order to conform to the trend of the times.

in terms of foreign exchanges, the state should give priority to cooperation and coordination. This kind of cooperation and coordination mainly stems from the objective interdependence between countries in the era of globalization, so bilateral and multilateral exchanges should be conducted on the principle of equality, mutual benefit and cooperation, and the way to solve political conflicts and economic disputes is increasingly dependent on the arbitration and intervention of international organizations. International governmental organizations are tools of interdependence in international relations. The practice of the international community after the Cold War has fully proved this point. The cooling and peaceful settlement of hot spots in some regions, the reduction of trade wars and economic sanctions, and cooperation in nuclear weapons control all illustrate this change. The international community will also tend to be stable and mature due to all-round cooperation.
