Summary/Abstract: Regionalization is one of the most important features of contemporary world. It has not only a geographical dimension, but many others that are interconnected: economic, political, security etc. In addition, regionalization coexists with globalization – a fact that might seem impossible if we take into consideration only the common sense characteristics of these two processes. Moreover, regionalization exists both at national and international level. In the last case, it is closely related to regionalism, but not always in a harmonious relationship. Therefore, the regionalization process proves itself complex and multifaceted and that is why we need a detailed theoretical analysis before we shall study its implications for national security.
