Globalisation is the generally defined as the network of connections of organisations and peoples are across national, geographic and Cultural borders and boundaries.
These global networks are creating a shrinking world where local differences and national boundaries are being subsumed into global identities. Within the field of tourism, globalisation is also viewed in terms of the revolutions in telecommunications, finance and transport that are key factors currently influencing the nature and pace of growth of tourism in developing nations.
