Globalization is a real threat for the social market economy and globalization does not protect weak, ill and helpless people. Multinational corporations acknowledge only one criterion, i.e. profit. To illustrate the situation the author presents a short characteristic of international economic co-operation. He asks the following questions: What was the aim of deregulation of the economic markets? What chaos was caused by that deregulation? How can these negative tendencies be reversed? In conclusion the author speaks about the negative influence of globalization on the social market economy. He also describes the features of three attitudes towards globalization, i.e. a radical one, a neoliberal one and a reformist one. Globalization in its present version is spontaneous and will have to be “civilized” in the forthcoming decade.

The essay I am presenting to the readers is a contribution to the methodology of scientific research, especially in the economic sciences. I wonder who scientists are and what broadly comprehended science means. Discussing these ideas I move to defining basic structures of science and next to characterizing the incorrect conceptions of scientific methods. It is a very important issue, especially as with the multiplicity of universities in Poland, in “closed” circles, pseudo-scientific groups are created, especially in the field of the so-called financial engineering or computational finance. That is why I mention F. Bacon’s theory of Idols and inductive reasoning. Finally, I recall Isaac Newton’s position on hypotheses and reductionism. I dedicate Karl Popper’s falsification, i.e. a kind of reasoning called verification, especially to young scientists. The above-mentioned reflections lead me to an issue of knowledge and truth. This way I come to a conclusion that the essence of truth is conformity of thoughts and believes with reality. I hope that my reflections will motivate the generation of young scientists to carry out competent and diligent research in the new century of omnipresent globalization.
