The KOF Index of Globalization is an index published by the Swiss Economic Institute that measures the economic, social, and political dimensions of globalization for over 200 countries annually since 1970. It defines globalization as networks connecting actors across continental distances through flows of people, ideas, goods, and capital. The index scores countries on a scale from 0-100 based on economic, political, and social globalization indicators like trade, capital flows, embassy presence, and cultural exchanges.

- 61. KOF Index of Globalization - Globalization in France As in the previous year, the Globalization Index ranked France in 13th place. The economic, political and social globalization sub- indices also remained unchanged. In the field of economic globalization, the country holds a rather modest 34th place. At least, the previous year's downward trend did not continue. France still tops the index in terms of political globalization, a position it has held without interruption since 1998. The country's wealth of foreign embassies in Paris, its memberships in international organisations, the extent of its participation in UN peace missions and the number of international treaties it is party to is unparalleled.
- 62. KOF Index of Globalization - Globalization in the USA The USA's ranking on the KOF Index of Globalization dropped one place to number 27. There has been a slight advance in economic globalization compared to the previous year. Both the "Actual Flows" sub-indicator, which includes trade and capital movements, and the removal of trade restrictions have led to an increase in economic globalization. All in all, globalization in the USA has stagnated since the end of the 1990s. Similar to most other industrialised countries, social globalization in the USA has remained unchanged for several years now. This is also true for political globalization which was rising until 1993 and has stagnated since.

- 67. KOF Index of Globalization - Evaluation Globalization is complex Regularly collected data? Does the possession of a television set make a household more globalized? Is a country that is proactive in volunteering troops for UN missions more globalized or are the reasons more complex? When calculating the index economic globalization is weighted at 37%, social globalization at 39% and political globalization at 25% - why not a third each? Which do you think is the ‘weakest’ data set? Task on geographyalltheway.com 7
