As countries reevaluate their economic strategies and policies for the post-
the flows of goods, services, capital, people, and ideas through the incorporation of
economic, political, social, and cultural techniques across borders (Takefman, 2023). In
line with establishing close ties among nations, MNEs function as channels for capital
borders (Dunning & Lundan, 2008). Thus, this essay focuses on bringing more attention
towards the role, impact, and significance of MNEs as a prime driver of globalization. In
a world that requires strong ties to thrive, MNEs have paved the way for interconnecting
Upon reading the material, one of the few things I have garnered insights that
centers on the role, ability, and impact of MNEs, alongside being identified as key
has contributed to enhancing the local capabilities and fostering innovative ecosystems
in host countries. Even in leading the post-pandemic world, this was made possible
not a dreadful thing when taken from the perspective of the economic world. Though it
could be a toxic trait among individuals, the adaptive resilience of MNEs in the face of
crisis, specifically during the global pandemic, allowed them not only to bounce back but
simple take, the reading material illustrates the overall importance of maintaining
balance or seeking the optimum middle ground. In the context of the operations of
MNEs, balance is highly significant for attaining and sustaining its role. It is a continuous
process of adaptation and alignment. Thus, achieving such a goal allows them to
diversify their operations, reduce risk, enhance resilience, promote ethical standards,
and meet demands while benefiting from other economies from the perspective of
globalization.
Although the reading material gifted me with great perception, some parts seem
I only heard about but was not exposed to. To begin, one thing I find hard to understand
is the measurement of globalization, especially how someone could tell that a particular
country has not reached the intensity or level of globalization measured based on
MNEs. Despite the awareness of MNEs' role in driving globalization, the method used to
quantify this impact was not evident. Additionally, the distinction between marginal and
fundamental changes remains vague to me. Being deemed different from one another, I
would like to know how they interact and the possibility of them overlapping with each
other to better understand their position in the globalization process. The pandemic was
my last point, that part came off as unclear to me, considering that these changes were
already on their way, there were no clear indications that development such as but not
and heightened connectivity to other countries was pushed earlier or came about
Considering the wide range of topics the paper could tackle, circling around
reading the title that suggests that the world needs more globalization gave me the
notion that the pandemic caused a massive halt in different operations toward
slow, for them to need a little push. Though such a claim may be realistic, the reading
material argues that the pandemic paved the way for various advancements, especially
from MNEs' point of view. Furthermore, I expected the article to give a fair share of
examples of the economy's rise and fall during the pandemic until it reached a certain
point of stability. Third, talking about globalization in its post-pandemic phase prompts
globalized given the changes brought about by the pandemic. Looking at it, there should
elaborate. However, it is also undeniable that a single reading material could not cater
researcher's words. As the article argues for the need for even more globalization in the
future, what indicator could tell that in the following years, the world has already
reached that need the past asked for? Moreover, I am curious to know if the claim that
the changes induced by heightened nationalism and protectionism are marginal rather
permanent thing even in the future? Even though various points and arguments were
mostly clear, I wonder if there will be a certain point at which these factors would cause
a significant change to globalization's existing structure. Finally, what are some applied
would also like to know if these strategies are inclusive or applicable to all nations
Exploring the role of MNEs, several insights emerge alongside questions, proving
Throughout the pandemic, it is no doubt that MNEs highlighted their significance in the
economy through their adaptive ways to stabilize their standing despite changes. By
agents in shaping the trajectory of globalization that has been constantly evolving and
adapting even before the onset of the pandemic. MNEs' intricate interplay with
dynamic journey that transcends boundaries and constant changes. Hence, without the
actions of MNEs, different nations would be disoriented from each other, leading to
globalization sketch.
