Abstract: Globalisation has advantages (economies of scale, opening up of national economies, realisation of comparative advantages), but also disadvantages (monopolistic oligopolies, domination effects, tax evasion). Often, the economy has been a cause of war, but proponents of globalisation, arguing for interdependence, consider that it produces is a factor of peace. However, globalisation does not put the social man of solidarity at the centre of economic and social structures, because of the domination effects that the liberal economy inevitably produces, it constitutes in its current state a favourable vector for the proselytism of the "American civilisation", it ultimately becomes a threat to the development of democratic structures. The economy becomes an amoral discipline controlled by a plutocracy. The question arises as to whether this globalisation is not ultimately opposed to universality, which defends not materialism, but the "values" of a society to be built.
