There are many different definitions of globalization, the easiest way is to be defined as a growing economic, social, political and cultural integration and interdependence of national economies, thereby leading to national interests or replaced. supplanted by transnational.
Measuring globalization Although the statistical coverage so differently defined and complex phenomenon like globalization, is not easy, we decided that with a few selected indicators, for the first time gathered in one place, slightly illuminated globalized Slovenia.
For this purpose, we have selected some of the known data of official economic statistics, namely data on key cross-border activities of international trade in goods and services and international direct investments. These data, we have added some information from the statistics of foreign companies, which have partly been indicators of the effects of globalization.
The selection of indicators of official statistics was limited mainly to the economic aspect of globalization. However, since globalization is not only an economic phenomenon, globalization picture of Slovenia is expanded to the wider globalization composite indicator, which is the product carnet tir of a recognized research institutions.
Data shown for Slovenia relating to the period 2007-2012. Since the selected indicators rather than at the time meaningfully compared with other countries, shown in this publication, some indicators for 2012, the neighboring countries. carnet tir Table of indicators for Slovenia for the period 2007-2012 is in the attachment, which are also key data for other Member States of the EU-27 and Croatia.
