Abstract: In his well-known and shocking discourse to the Harvard University in 1978, Alexandr Solzhenitsyn (1918 – 2008), in a surprising/controversial approach, lamented, under the effect of the new economic-political and socio-cultural conditions in the West, the new desiderate/idol of this world, for a better life, which imprint many Western faces with worry and even depression, which closes though it is customary such feelings of spiritual development ( The entire discourse is permanently available on the following addresshttp://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/alexandersolzhenitsynharvard.htm). In the ranks below, we will try to highlight some aspects, specifications and influences of the global economy, influencing the alienation of the religious consciousness of the modern man.
