As globalization continues to grow, more and more obstacles will arise. Government lockdowns affect everyone. Those who travel to a certain country are restricted in various ways, from the things they bring to the length of their stay. Immigration plays an important role in globalization because immigrants bring with them their culture, language and ideology. Travel, both tourist and vagabond, affects the economy of the country of visit, as well as that of any business they spend money on, whether it's a local coffee shop or an airline . Gender, racial, and ethnic barriers affect globalization to the extent that they capture only some of the benefits it brings, if any. For example, an American company with factories in China; although this gives work to the Chinese, they are paid very little while the big companies make millions from their cheap products.
