- Description
- Globalization has significantly impacted contemporary democracies, presenting both opportunities and security challenges. The rapid flow of information, capital, and people across borders has fostered economic growth and cultural exchange but has also exposed nations to cyber threats, terrorism, and foreign interference. Digital technology has amplified these risks, enabling misinformation campaigns and cyberattacks that undermine democratic institutions. The rise of authoritarian regimes leveraging globalization to exert influence further complicates the landscape. Democracies must adapt by strengthening cybersecurity measures, promoting media literacy, and fostering international cooperation. Balancing national security with democratic values, such as privacy and freedom of expression, remains a critical challenge. As the global order evolves, democracies must find innovative ways to safeguard their institutions while remaining open to the benefits of globalization. 2025, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
