MIGRACIJE KAO ODGOVOR NA RIZIKE GLOBALIZACIJE
MIGRATIONS IN RESPONSE TO THE RISKS OF GLOBALIZATION

Summary/Abstract: From the sociological point of view, the paper deals with the contradictory consequences of the process of globalization which has become a key word for understanding social changes in the world marked by population migrations, transnational capitalism and global culture based on imperial aspirations of the West. It is about broader geopolitical and social process whose causes are at the same time socio-historical, cultural, political, and economic. Globalization contributes to the creation of new identities, but also tensions and conflicts due to diversities on any grounds: racial, national, religious, class. The paper discusses the effects of this process in dramatic circumstances of disintegration of social space from destabilized and war-affected areas of the Middle East, an increasing number of migrations, social instability, inequality and poverty.
