Thus, globalization may have several drivers, factors, and aspects that may pose challenges to a nations strength, power and sovereignty. There may be strong influences from private entities, TNCs and MNCs for the government of a nation-state to formulate policies beneficial to these groups. Then there are the international monetary agencies such as the World Bank and IMF whose policies also undermine governments. All these are strong influences to weaken a nation-state due to globalization, De Sousa Santos puts it best when he states (2002): "Just as the state has to intervene in order to stop intervening, only a strong state can efficiently create its own weakness." This hits it right on the spot because globalization should not be blamed if a nation-state weakens but rather the nation-state should be the one since whatever happens to it will always be its own doing short of this nation-state gets attacked by a more powerful nation and subjugated thereafter. Then this has nothing to do with globalization weakening it but direct undermining by force of a more superior nation in the military sense.

Globalization arguably began even before Marco Polo’s expeditions, possibly being traceable to Alexander the Great’s establishment of overland routes between Eastern Europe and India. The assumption that globalization equals Americanization is profoundly arrogant, and is also ignorant of the history, meaning, and implications of globalization. Globalization implies integration and interdependence of the world. Predating the United States of America, globalization nevertheless reached a peak in the 20th century, when a
