The author begins with the analysis of the place of globalization notion in currently happening social life transformations - universalization and emancipation. He takes note of replacing the notion of universalization by globalization despite the ambiguity of both notions and frequent opposition of their features. Then he presents analysis of social life in political, economic and cultural spheres, in order to draw attention to the relation between national state, nation and international corporation, being a representative of globalization. This analysis leads to the conclusion that globalization is not a complimentary process to universalization, but is one of the symptoms of emancipation processes. This results in the author's conclusion that globalization does not threaten the existence of national states and nations.
