Abstract
1. The process of globalization could be considered a macrosocial process, whichhas nonlinear development and latent components that display in definite periodof time. Besides, operative analysis of this process is complicated by precipitancy,continuity and ambiguity.2. Unipolar world, which started to form in 90th, beside the traditional groups of„globalists” and „antiglobalists”, led to the mosaic contradictionary picture of theworld, where nonstandard conflicts are especially dangerous. Moreover, someresearchers, for instance A.I. Prigozhin, use term „world war 4” in the attemptsof analysis of Muslim extreme groups’ collision with the USA and Europeancountries.3. Many researchers of globalization are inclined to conclude, that while entrainedin economical analysis of globalization consequences and formation of the internationaljob market, we missed not less important ecological, migrational andespecially spiritual problems of the contemporary mankind. More and more researcherscome to the conclusion, that it’s impossible to solve ripened problemswithout overcoming dangerous degradation of whole nations and sharp decreaseof spirituality level.4. On the background of the complicating global processes of essential modificationof many social groups’ and whole nations’ values takes place. Out of theoreticalcategory Durkheim’s anomy transformed into a practical reality, that representativesof practically all social groups come across („many old values don’t workany more, but the new ones still haven’t formed”), that’s why sociological researcheswhich trace changes of social values become especially actual.5. In researches on globalization processes an important component is the analysisof co-existence, antagonism, interference of certain national cultures and formingglobal culture. Traditional research on the personality’s socialization gains newsense. According to the mentioned circumstances, special significance is gainedby separate personality’s and social group’s saving most basic values and traditions,together with mastering progressive elements, which could be taken from
