This study examines the relationship between ecological footprint, energy consumption and economic, political and social globalization in the ASEAN-5 country sample between 1986 and 2017. Panel cointegration, Augmented Mean Group (AMG) estimator and Dumitrescu-Hurlin panel causality tests were used in the analysis. According to the findings, the variables move together in the long run. In addition, it was obtained with the finding that energy consumption increases the ecological footprint in countries with significant results, and that all three globalization dimensions show different results from country to country. Finally, according to the panel causality test results, a bidirectional causality relationship was reached between ecological footprint and political and social globalization, and a unidirectional causality relationship between energy consumption and economic globalization. There is a bidirectional causality between energy consumption and political and social globalization, and a unidirectional causality relationship from energy consumption to economic globalization.
