B) a renewed concept in international studies
C) limited to the west
D) a process of making the world smaller
Correct Answer: C) limited to the west
Explanation
This question is asking about globalisation and which option is not true about it. Globalisation is the process of countries becoming more connected and interdependent on each other through trade, communication, and cultural exchange. Out of the four options given, only one is not true about globalisation. Option A states that globalisation is an increasing integration of the world which is true. Option B suggests that globalisation is a renewed concept in international studies, but this is not true as globalisation has been a topic of study for many years. Option D says that globalisation is a process of making the world smaller which is also true. The correct answer is Option C, which says that globalisation is limited to the west. This is not true as globalisation affects all regions of the world, not just the west. In summary, globalisation is the process of countries becoming more connected and interdependent on each other. The correct answer to this question is Option C, as globalisation is not limited to the west.
