Sažetak

Globalization processes necessarily exert infl uence on religion and events in the modern world. Th ese processes do not have an impact only on the current financial crisis and market. They have an impact on political, social, cultural, religious and every day life in the modern world as well. Therefore, they are properly named global processes. Furthermore, shortly after it was invented, the term globalization successfully replaced similar terms such as industrialisation, capitalism, socialism, liberalism, modernism and postmodernism. Thesis about the end of religion appeared to be wrong. We are witnesses of a boom of different spiritual communities and revitalization of traditional, historical world religions and their big comeback to the world´s scene. Religions and spiritual movements have a big opportunity for inter-religious dialogue and cooperation, but they are also in danger of closing themselves into their shells. If they succeed in dialogue and cooperation, they have a big opportunity to become a moral authority and corrective force on the »religion of market« in the modern world.
