- People have increased their demand for foreign goods. — Yes. Rising consumer demand for variety and lower-cost imports has expanded international trade.

- Technology has greatly enhanced the ability to share information around the world. — Yes. Advances in transport, communications, and IT have sharply reduced costs and time for moving goods, capital, and information.

- The world’s poorer nations have joined together to demand a greater role in the world economy. — No. Poorer nations have become more integrated individually (through liberalization and export growth), but coordinated demands by poorer countries are not a primary reason the pace of globalization has accelerated.
