    The first place to look would be Wikipedia. There you find:
    "Pro-globalization (globalism)"
    "Globalism, if the concept is reduced to its economic aspects, can be said to contrast with economic nationalism and protectionism. It is related to laissez-faire capitalism and neoliberalism."
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globalization

    The first Google hit on globality says:
    "I use the word globality to refer to a characteristic of everyday life, specifically the interconnection of human experiences in many parts of the world through cultural influence, social interaction and individual economic transactions."
    http://www.globality.org/About/AboutHome.htm

    The second hit goes into great lengths to explain the concept: http://www.sussex.ac.uk/Users/hafa3/warglobal...

    How exactly did you search the web? Or is this not what you were looking for?

    No sorry that's not what I'm looking for.
    I am not interested in what the author of globality.org thinks.
    I'm looking for a longer and a bit academic definition.
    A real comparison of the 3 terms would be the best.

    e.g. (academic) I've read that paper

    (http://www.warwick.ac.uk/csgr/wpapers/wp10902.pdf)

    yesterday but it handles more or less only the term "Globalization" and I couldn't make out the differences.

    The sussex paper looks more interesting. Didn't find this text today.

    Another User (politik-forum.at) posted:

    globalisierung= das zusammenwachsen
    globalismus= eine ideologie des zusammenwachsens
    globalität= die fähigkeit zusammenzuwachsen

    that's wrong isn't it?

    I see. There are probably better, more specialized places to look for scientific papers than this forum. Unfortunately, I'm not expert enough on this subject to know where...

    For what it's worth--from the little I read I gathered the following ideas:
    * Globalization should probably be a rather neutral term describing an increase in international interactions on a global level.
    * Globalism is an ideology that supports globalization mainly for economic reasons.
    * Globality, in contrast, refers to the social and cultural implications of globalization.

    Might be off by miles, though...
    Does this make any sense in the literature you find?

    "To be distinguished from globalization and globality is a further concept, globalism, which refers to the neoliberal ideology of world-market domination." ... "How should globality, globalization and globalism be distinguished from one another? ..." (the explanation takes a few pages) in What Is Globalization? by Ulrich Beck. http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/0745621... It was originally written in German: "Was ist Globalisierung?" http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/3518409... It has a "search in the book" function at amazon if you just want to read a couple of pages.

    Well, almost every 'short' definition of the 3 terms make sense to me, but they're all different... and nobody knows what's right or can give cogent reason for his definition.

    "There are probably better, more specialized places to look for scientific papers than this forum."

    I posed question in several boards, but diidn't receive any usable answer.

    Keohane and Nye define Globalism and Globalization as follows:
    "Globalism can be defined as a state of the world involving networks of interdependence at multicontinental distances. Globalization as we understand it refers to process - economic, military, environmental and social - that strengthen or 'thicken' these networks." (see Keohane/Nye (2000), The Club Model of Multilateral Cooperation and Problems of Democratic Legitimacy, Paper prepared for the American Political Science Convention, Washington, D.C., August 31-September 3)
