Summary/Abstract: In the paper the author examines the dependence of migration pressure on religious fundamentalism. We strive to identify such a form of religious fundamentalism, which can be regarded beyond doubt, as an important cause of contemporary migration pressures. Religious fundamentalism is originally conceived as a return to a forgotten doctrinal and moral foundation, and as such does not pose any threat. The danger is the chosen way of returning to the forgotten religious foundation, especially if such a way would be legitimized by religion. This is a case of mixing religious renewal with the politicization of religion. It is shown that the threat of migratory pressure is the result of such a form of religious fundamentalism, in which religious renewal is mixed with the politicization of religion. Islamic Religious fundamentalism is structurally linked to the politicization of religion and therefore exerts its migratory pressure in the place of its influence.
