“Globalization is a process in which worldwide economic, political, cultural, and social relations have become increasingly mediate across time and space” (Rantanen, 2005:3)
Even though the definition about globalization above is clear, explicit, and vivid enough, but there are some missing parts; interaction, interlink, interconnection, or integration, and health as a fundamental aspect of human being and increasingly interconnected world. Globalization is not only a process of economic, political, cultural, and social relations soaringly intercede, but also the process in which the interaction and integration of political, cultural, social relations, and health among people, companies and governments across the world, driven by international trade and investment and catalysed by information technology. (Coldfats, 2008).
An overview of study on the processes of globalization utters that people are facing a various aspect which containing economic, social, political, cultural, religious and legal dimensions, and all of them are interlinked in the complex manner.
Moreover, Globalization associates in very various ways with others, and root transformations in the world system, such as the high increase in inequality between developing and developed countries and between the rich and the destitute inside each country, dense population, environmental damage, ethnic gab, international mass migration problem, the emersion of new states and the collapse or decline of others, the development of the civil war, globally organized crime, formal democracy as a political condition for international aid, etc.

Live in Globalization Era 
This post focuses on the missing definition of globalisation and particularly focuses that missing part to interaction, interlink, interconnection and integration. The author has applied references in discussion to interaction and integration by relating it to international trade, investment and information technology. This makes it interesting for the reader as it escapes the usual circle of keywords that relate to globalisation.
You engaged with the reader early on in the piece, inform them about the influence of globalisation through cultural and economic means, aided by technology creating a new world inside the old one.
The definition of globalization by Rantanen is very comprehensive, simple and complete to describe globalization is, however you could still find the lack of it. It is very good when you could criticize the definition from the expert. You really answered what is the missing part of the definition of globalization by Rantanen. You add some words that really make the definition more comprehensive. It would be so nice if you could hyperlinked several fundamental things such as politic, culture, social and etc. Your reference is also very supporting your idea about globalization.
