Abstract

In the contemporary world, sociology must deal with a series of issues that extend into the most diverse spheres of knowledge. This 'duty' objectively places sociology at the center of a series of dynamics that can effectively enhance its reflections and ultimately make it a compulsory part of present-day scientific literature. This analysis will examine the specific implications of globalization at the level of social, economic and legal institutions and highlight how globalization is often presented as a process in continuous evolution whose main effect is a profound change in the social representation of distance and political boundaries of the world (Zolo 2004; Cassese 2009).
