=== Education === Globalization creates an incentive for nations to produce individuals who are competitive and marketable. In many countries educational policy and administration has shifted to emphasize efficiency and marketability instead of traditional '[[Soft skills|soft]]' skills.<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal |last=Sun-Keung Pang |first=Nicholas |title=Globalization in the One World: Impacts on Education in Different Nations |url=https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED567143.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161020182124/http://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED567143.pdf |archive-date=2016-10-20 |url-status=live |journal=BCES Conference Books |volume=11 |pages=17β27}}</ref> Education is being restructured on market principles - thus, in the realm of higher education, knowledge production and dissemination is becoming commodified.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Schugurensky |first=D |title=Higher education restructuring in the era of globalization: Toward a heteronomous model? |publisher=Lanham: Rowman & Littlefield |year=2003 |pages=292β312}}</ref> As [[knowledge management]] is coming to outweigh labor on the global stage, there is an increasing prevalence of [[Neoliberalism|neoliberal]] economic ideologies. A direct result of this change is the mass privatization of institutions of higher education.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Currie |first=Jan |date=February 1998 |title=Globalization Practices and the Professoriate in Anglo-Pacific and North American Universities |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1086/447476 |journal=Comparative Education Review |volume=42 |issue=1 |pages=15β29 |doi=10.1086/447476 |s2cid=144508585 |issn=0010-4086}}</ref> Because of privatization and corporatization, public universities are coming to run like for-profit businesses. Thus, universities must find alternative sources of funding, leading to a reliance on the market.<ref name=":0" /> Though globalization has increased access to education, in many places it has also made it more unequal in quality.<ref name=":0" />
