The Globalisation Index 2011 is a useful interactive showing how different countries have become more or less globalised with time. The index, created by the Economist Intelligence Unit, shows the extent to which the world's largest countries by GDP are connecting to the global economy, using 20 indicators in five broad categories:
1. Openness to trade
2. Capital movements
3. Labor movements
4. Exchange of technology and ideas
5. Cultural integration
