ANSWER: Globalization refers to the historical process by which all the world's people
increasingly come to live in a single social unit. Religions identify themselves in relation to one
another, and they become less rooted in particular places because of Diasporas and transnational
ties.

ANSWER:
Globalism, at its core, seeks to describe and explain nothing more than a world which is
characterized by networks of connections that span multi-continental distances. In short,
consider globalism as the underlying basic network, while globalization refers to the dynamic
shrinking of distance on a large scale.

ANSWER: Globalization transforms the generic 'religion' into a world-system of competing and
conflicting religions. This process of institutional specialization has transformed local, diverse and
fragmented cultural practices into recognizable systems of religion.
