The impact of globalization on national sovereignty is multifaceted. As countries become increasingly interconnected through trade, communication, and culture, their ability to govern independently may be challenged. Globalization can enhance economic growth but may also dilute national identity and restrict policy-making as international agreements and institutions exert influence. Issues like climate change and trade often require nations to collaborate, leading to shared governance that can conflict with unilateral national interests. Balancing these forces is a key challenge for modern states.
