Abstract
Over the last few decades, social scientists have placed great emphasis upon issues related to the phenomenon of globalisation. Globalisation, as an ongoing process, has an important impact on all aspects of human activity from economy and trade to socio-cultural policies (Razak 2011). Such effects have become increasingly apparent due to advances in technology and communication (Tahir 2011), which allow for the movement of not only peoplescapes or ethnoscapes, but also technoscapes, financescapes, and ideoscapes (Appadurai 1996). Despite difficulties encountered in providing a solid conceptualisation of the phenomenon, globalisation may be identified as the global intensification of social interactions, in which local events are influenced by what is happening in the far distance, and vice versa (Perachoriti 2002).
