Abstract

New circumstances marked 1990s and the beginning of the 20th century, when religion entered the stage in a big way. Besides the undeniable significance which important religions of contemporary world have in articulation of believers' spiritual needs, the fact is that many of extremist, but also some terrorist organizations, related the essence of their action and plead to "greater religious goals". That is why the main goal of this paper is to remind on historical context of extremism manifestation which is justified with religious reasons, to elaborate the contemporary context in which the dominant type of religiously inspired violence is Islamic extremism, and also to point out the mistakes which Western countries make when it is about this significant problem of present times.
