Abstract :
The aim of this study is to discuss the issue of religiosity in the era of globalization, and to search for mechanisms to overcome violence resulting from religious difference. First, by exploring the underlying causes of the prevalent violence in many regions worldwide, particularly in Arab Islamic countries. Second, by emphasising the necessity to distinguish between religion as a human need to achieve psychological balance, serenity and happiness, and some forms of religiosity linked to certain groups that would resort to various forms of violence to achieve their purposes. and serve the interests of their ideologies.
Accordingly, the current paper seeks to address this issue: if religiosity is a legitimate right and a human necessity, how can positive coexistence be ensured among people belonging to different religions and sects? What are the mechanisms that would establish a culture of peace and tolerance instead of a culture of exclusion and violence, especially in the current global context dominated by globalization where human values are absent?
Key words: Religion, Globalisation, Violence, Authority.

Abstract
الهدف من هذه الدراسة هو مناقشة موضوع التدين في زمن العولمة، والبحث عن الآليات الكفيلة بتجاوز العنف الناتج عن الاختلاف الديني، وهذا من خلال معرفة الأسباب الحقيقية الكامنة وراء العنف الذي تشهده الكثير من المناطق في العالم خاصة الدول العربية الإسلامية، وضرورة التمييز بين الدين كضرورة إنسانية لتحقيق التوازن النفسي والطمأنينة والسعادة، وبعض أشكال التدين المرتبطة بإيديولوجيات معينة والتي تخدم مصالح بعض الفئات ويمكنها في سبيل ذلك اللجوء إلى مختلف أشكال العنف، ومن ثم فإشكالية البحث هي: إذا كان التدين حقا مشروعا وضرورة إنسانية، فكيف يمكن ضمان تعايش إيجابي بين المتدينين على اختلاف مذاهبهم ودياناتهم ؟ ما هي الآليات التي من شأنها إرساء ثقافة السلم والتسامح بدل ثقافة الإقصاء والعنف خاصة في الوضع العالمي الراهن الذي تطغى عليه عولمة تغيب فيها القيم الإنسانية الراقية؟
