Abstract

The globalization metamorphoses of the modern current world determine the change of ideas about religious (ethno-religious) systems, which are being reborn on a qualitatively new basis into religious-civilizational formations. The beginning of the new millennium was marked by a new outline of a new religious model - civilization. National and ethnic and cultural components of the social life are gradually coming to the background. Under the influence of these processes, the internationalized reproductive cycles of the religious component are qualitatively transformed, which under these conditions demonstrates a new level of its functionality, merging with the economy and politics. Therefore, the world is on the verge of forming modified organizational and functional structures with a distinct religious character.
