Summary/Abstract: Since 1990s of the last century the world economy has been going through profound changes resulting from accelerating of globalizing processes. Economy globalizing sets new tasks and chal- lenges not only for economic subject, which have to keep pace with a bigger and stronger competi- tion, but also for countries and international organizations. The subject matter of the following study is the trial of showing the place and meaning of a state in the globalization era. The carried out analyses let us draw conclusions that the trend of the development of the globalizing process depends, finally, on the power of state institutions. A power- ful country, actively participating in the political and economic life on the arena of international politics, can become an important moderator of globalizing processes. In the final part of the article there was paid attention to the other, except for globalization processes widely observed in numer- ous fields of human activity, and that is regionalization. This process can become one of the valid ways of maintaining up-to-date independent economic policy.
