Abstract

In over a half-century the Arab World has passed thru a good deal of various developments including economic, social, political and military ones that significantly changed its image by adding new quality to the processes and problems that indicated its guidelines and growth. All what has happened in this one of the most important regions of the world left a mark on the national aspects of the state and society development. The Arab World is living now in a very contradictory way walking the line of different models of social and political organization and economic growth having their reflection in every day activity of ruling regimes putting goals not frequently supported neither economically nor politically. This region is currently surviving the severe period of revolutions and intensive confessional hostility that carries in itself very distinctly articulated political, economic and social content. As a result the new imbalances emerge here coupling with humanitarian crises and with total disorder in understanding of common fitness of things that will spill over to the next decade and influence the ample range of problems most acute for the region. Not least of all are the deep-laid processes of globalization that may be translated in shaping of national goals and may affect national consciousness and identification as well as pave way for national-building and develop positive attitude towards unity or be the reason of its oppression.
