Globalization and religion
Globalization refers to the process of increased interconnectedness among countries, driven by trade, technology, and communication. In this context, religion plays a significant role as belief systems spread across borders, influencing cultures and societies. As people migrate and interact globally, they share their religious practices and ideas, leading to both the blending of traditions and, at times, conflict. This interaction can foster greater understanding and tolerance, but can also challenge local beliefs and provoke tensions. Overall, globalization reshapes how religions are practiced and perceived on a global scale.
