Globalization, imperialism, and the making of modern society are deeply interconnected phenomena that have shaped contemporary global issues. The process of globalization, often understood as the increasing interconnectedness and interdependence of the world, can be traced back to the historical legacies of imperialism. Imperialism, as both a political and economic system, created structures of dominance and exploitation that laid the groundwork for the modern globalized world. This historical perspective highlights the ways in which colonial powers expanded their control, reshaping economies, cultures, and societies across the globe. By analyzing the trajectories of imperialism, the impact on post-colonial societies, and the ongoing processes of globalization, this study aims to shed light on how contemporary global issues such as inequality, migration, cultural exchange, and economic dependency are deeply rooted in historical colonial practices. These historical patterns continue to influence modern society, highlighting the complexity of the global system in the 21st century.
