Summary/Abstract: This article attempts to compare the processes of modern economic globalization with analogous processes that have taken place in the past. The socio-economic, political and business changes taking place in the global dimension since the middle of the last century have contributed to a significant modification of the contemporary dominant market structures and models of financial systems. The main determinants of modern globaliza-tion processes include the third technological revolution that took place in the second half of the twentieth century and mainly concerned the multifaceted development of information technology and the implementation of information technologies for many different industries and also other spheres of human life. The processes of globalization in a more distant past were somewhat different in nature, when other factors of production prevailed in the production of goods, and economics was not yet a separate science
