The article discusses the relation between globalisation and local contexts. It treats the process of globalisation as relative with respect to the culture of everyday life, evident in the face-to-face relations (housework, workplace, everyday symbolic forms). It also discusses the problem of glocalisation, stemming from the discussion of the work of Józef Chelmowski, a Kasubian folk artist. Glocalisation appears to be a manifestation of the strengthening of ties between the local forms of culture and the process of globalisation. This relation helps us to get a closer look at the functioning of global awareness among members of modern society, at the local level.
