Summary/Abstract: There is not a precise definition of globalization. Contemporary, an economic liberalization doctrine is an ideological background for global economic processes. However, many universal advantages of the processes can be pointed, economically strong multinational corporations take much more advantages than other subjects. Global economic processes lead to polarization of wealth and growing inequality between countries as well as between people in each separate country. Rates of unemployment are higher and higher. Rich are getting richer and poor are getting poorer. Natural environment suffers from degradation. People protest against harms and injustice but, until now, they have not enough power for changes. Contemporary growing terrorism menace is the more successful mean of protest. An approach to economic processes has to be changed from the liberal doctrine to more “Keynesian” one, with a state/government and international institutions interventions, coordinated. Without changes in separate countries and as a result, also globally, we will meet growing also military conflicts and a real menace of the III world war.
