Here they are:
Globalisation is good
The New Rulers of the World
To get you started on your research, here are a few websites which you might find useful:
Yale Global Online  -  take a look at some of the essays, video and so on. Very useful. Also has some good links to other online resources
Global Transformations  -  some useful information here, linked to a series of books (quite political this one...)
Guardian Special Report  -  for newspaper related to global issues
BBC Globalisation  -  A look at some of the multinationals involved
ESRC  -  the Economic and Social Research Council can be a good place to look for research
Warwick University  -  Warwick has a Centre for globalisation research (look at the 'Working Papers series)
The Globalization Website  -  quite a good introduction to the subject
Globalization101  -  another good introduction to some of the concepts
A quick search for globali*ation in the LondonMet library catalogue gave me 1503 results. These can be narrowed down to online resources, journals, books etc.
Why did I write globali*ation? Because I wanted to look for the same word spelt with either 's' (British spelling) or 'z' (US spelling).
When searching Google or Google Scholar, you can do the same by adding ~. Try searching for ~globalisation in Google - it should return results with -s or -z. It will give you about 24 million results!!
This week we'll have a look at how to narrow down your search...
