Course Objective. The purpose of this course is to analyze the process of globalization
as a new stage in the world capitalism. In this context, the problem of the origins of

Globalization will be discussed on the basis of production, finance and trade. In this
course, examining the fundamental characteristics of the feudal economy, the transition to
capitalism and agricultural capitalism will be discussed in terms of historical and social
dimensions.
