Finally, analysing one more concern is crucial for the purpose of understanding the rife fear of the globalisation process. With “the movement of ideas, information [and] images“ (''"Globalization: What‘s New? What‘s Not? (And So What?)", 2000, p. 107''), comes along the movement of people and therefore the movement of culture and religion. Oftentimes the integration of one culture into another does not proceed without conflicts. Different cultures and accordingly different religions are often in no accordance with each other, for example anent the question whether the good of the individual or the good of the collective is to be rated higher or the question of arbitrary law. | Finally, analysing one more concern is crucial for the purpose of understanding the rife fear of the globalisation process.

Hence, the great number of people now participating in global politics does not only lead to plurality but also to the concern people with other concepts could gain too much power. At the same time, among other reasons the entering of anglicisms into the own language leads to the concern about loosing the own culture. While on one hand one standardised language helps to exchange knowledge, it leads on the other hand to the neglect of the own language and therefore the neglect of the own culture, due to influences from all over the world. People rather feel a radical elimination of their culture rather then a symbiosis with other cultures. This feeling of radicalness of cultural oppression could in addition be one reason for terror. Consequently, the balance of integrating a foreign culture or religion and simultaneously opening the own culture seems to be another challenge every individual is faced when adapting to the process of globalisation. | Hence, the great number of people now participating in global politics does not only lead to plurality but also to the concern people with other concepts could gain too much power.
