Abstract
The main objective of this study is to empirically investigate the impact of globalization on human development in selected Asian countries from 1990 to 2016. After collection of data on all variables from different national and international sources, instrumental variable technique (two stage least square) was found to be the most appropriate technique for panel estimation and empirical investigation has been done for overall Asian countries along with above and below median HDI countries of Asia. Empirical investigation of globalization and human development indicates that trade openness is one of the best indicator for human development. ICT access is another criterion which can be used because in changing scenario of 21st century it is required here that for access to health and education facilities, everyone should have access to ICT for cheaper, easy and convenient access. Workers’ remittances and FDI are significantly but negatively contributing in human development which is alarming situation for policy makers and academicians before taking decision regarding globalization.
