This thesis deals with the notion of religion in relation to the negative impact and effects of globalization. In the context of religious violence, key concepts related to fundamentalism, religious nationalism and terrorism are presented and defined in more detail. There are presented causes and circumstances, which refer to the rise of religious violence and its occurrence in the age of globalization. The aspects and background of the emergence of counterclockwise effects are shown, which contribute to a deeper knowledge of these, as they are complex and individual. They coincide with today's perception of the personal and group marginalization and detachment of certain groups in relation to Western Europe and the USA. There is a sense of double standards, due to global influence and this often becomes a fundamental reason for escalating religious violence and resorting back to traditions. In the thesis we explored which responses can be observed in religion and why did they appeared as such. Based on the analysis of the three concepts, provided by selected authors, I tried to find out what are the fundamental reasons for the occurrence and compared these three concepts.
