With regards to "globalism" , it would be constructive perhaps to know and recall some of the history. I think as a precursor to it was the rediscovery of the new world in 1492 by Christopher Columbus. This led to and proved the roundness of the planet to the establishment at large. Then in around 1870 ish Sir Sanford Fleming invented the 24 Standard Time Zones which were adopted and have greatly coordinated human activity.

The idea of globalism, though is still a huge and difficult prospect to grasp and conceptualize and perhaps requires a "global" mindset or manner of thought. It remains somewhat of a hypothetical aspect until one, as one ages apparently develops the ability of "globalized thinking."

The global development of the United Nations, after world war,II around 1945, was another example of the move towards globalism. A movement which as the planets nations develop is more or less inevitable.

It wasn't till April 1,1960 though, when some of the first satellite images supported and confirmed the existence of the planetary sphere. Now the idea of "noosphere" has entered the lexicon which while somewhat interesting is somewhat speculative to and perhaps self referencing. Globalism itself to might be somewhat of a transcendant and self referencing notion. But Globalism and perhaps its degrees are in itself then nothing new but just perhaps a rose by another name. To imply an ideology and doctrine to it is perhaps giving it something which should be a matter of a more democracatic nature, within say the auspices of the United Nations. Perhaps the idea of "Democratic or Responsible Globalism" is warranted or pertinent to the discussion and a necessary distinction that must be made.
