*Globalization implies neither equity — nor homogenization. In fact, it is equally likely to amplify differences — or at least make people more aware of them. [ibid]

Although today the term "globalism" is usually used to describe the liberal "one world" view, there exists a second, lesser-known definition.
The earliest known academic use of the term "globalism" occurred in 1943 in ''The War for Man’s Soul'', a book written by Ernst Jäckh, a professor at [[Columbia University]] who had fled [[Germany]] following the rise of [[Adolf Hitler]]. In his book, Jäckh uses the term "globalism" to describe not a liberal "one world" view, but rather Hitler's aspirations for world domination:
:''"Hitler … reaches out for the sun itself. He has set out to conquer the world to make the globe a German possession! He aims at more than military or economic and political conquest. He has embarked on a “holy war” as the God-sent leader of a “chosen people” bred not for imperialism but for globalism—his world without end."''<ref>Zimmer, Ben (March 14, 2018).

This definition has been used (and perhaps abused) by political scientists who view globalism solely in terms of [[geopolitics]] instead of political [[ideology]] and [[economics]]. For example, [[National Globalist]] political scientist [[Alexander Dugin]] has used the term to describe what he perceives as American hegemony in terms of [[politics]], economics, and [[military]]; and defends entities normally associated with globalism such as the European Union, [[Islamism]], and [[China]] as being in fact ''victims and potential allies'' against globalism.<ref>Dugin, Alexander (January 18, 2018).
