Abstract<\/h2>\n

Globalization has been happening for millennia. Hence, it is argued to be a historical process and not a relatively new phenomenon, pointing out the evolution of global history at how the progression of human development overtime has contributed to broader societal advancement through the discovery of new and constantly improving technologies on one hand, but has been a highly uneven process characterized by unequal distribution of power, violence, discrimination and oppression on the other hand. In essence, it is argued by imperialists that it provides a historical response to contemporary questions surrounding issues of underdevelopment and global inequality. My paper argues that the process of decolonization, especially in Africa was incomplete and that former colonies were excluded from key economic decisions that came to have severe implications for their future attempts at developing their economies, which got worse with globalization. It articulates these discrepancies using the theoretical framework of dependency theory as analytical tool to understand current cause of global inequality, which has given rise to worst migration problems of 21st century and why the African continent is in a continual state of backwardness and ridden by civil wars, suffering from malnutrition, disease and social conflicts.<\/p>\n
