Sažetak
In this new millenium, globalization and religion in our globalized world are connected in a powerful and fateful way. This article deals with the concept of globalization and the relationship of religion toward it. Particular attention is devoted to religious diversity and the search for solutions in intrareligious conflict. In this context the article focuses on interreligious dialogue, activities for peace and justice as well as Christian ecumenical endeavours. The Catholic Church's Social Teaching with its rich contribution to Catholic movements on all continents is changing the face of the globalized world and proving increasingly that its theories can in fact be put into practice. The prophetic aspect of religion today is seen in its contribution of hope and a view of life founded on a different order and values than is contemporary economic logic.
