Summary/Abstract: The main problem of of the contemporary global interactions is the tension between cultural homogenization and heterogenization. I argued in favour of a distinction between globalization and globalism, the first term referring to a set of long lasting processes through which a significant percentages of the increasingly, world population are juxtaposed in terms of lifestyle, institutional structures, cultural practices, and communities/societies gradually gaining information regarding what separates them and/or unites them: simillarities and cultural differences, informational-technological equipment and standard of living.Direct contact between cultures is no longer a phenomenon of acculturation. The most likely cause currently holds a media that functions as a cultural broker. Globalization as acculturation is the first of two complementary aspects of a dual process, for which the term globalization, comprising interdependence between ideologies and/or inclusive and exclusive processes of solidarity and fragmentation, respectively of openness and isolation. Similarly, the acculturated process can not be built without a specific anti-acculturated phenomenon.
