Globalization, an emerging concept, has become a blanket descriptive term for all the processes emerging as a result of the global economic integration. It entails intricate processes and concepts that shape the incessant growth and convergence of world economies with reference to markets for goods and labor force management. The interconnection between the multifaceted concept of globalization and labor or the employment sector is equally growing to be a major concern for policymakers. However, it has been determined that the intricacies characterizing both concepts makes it difficult to analyze the relationship either empirically or theoretically. On this note, it is worth noting that the body of literature in this scope is highly limited with most of them specific to regions. A global analysis of the relationship may prove largely impossible given the varying economic and employment situations in various regions of the world even in the face of globalization. In particular, the concept of globalization also means a wide range of elements to different analysts and researchers, thus, making its impacts difficult to not only isolate but also evaluate. Besides, the relationship relies majorly on the distinct ability of a country to cope with such policies that concern liberalization of trade, technology and investment flows. In the face of the unique ability, it seems that it is not possible to generalize the relationship between globalization and employment. Nonetheless, the existing framework of literature still remain pertinent in studying the impact of globalization on employment especially with reference to specific fields of employment like the criminal justice system. Arguably, the impact of globalization on employment in the criminal justice system will expand jurisdictions and probably increase the rate of crime, therefore, opening up more employment avenues in the sector due to the need for, and subsequent creation of a less anachronistic state crime control paradigms, creation of more ‘supermax’ prisons, and the emergence of sophisticated patterns of crime.
