The humanity must prevent global threats coordinating their efforts. But that does not mean that the difference between the countries and nations, between classes and social groups will be deleted. The modern world is inconceivable without interest difference of individuals, separate groups, states, etc.
The global realization is a realization of taking care of your own country, its welfare and prosperity. The responsibility for the planet cannot start with the responsibility for your own country, because state crisis of some taken separately country complicates the world situation in the political aspect; ecological and resource crisis threaten ecological balance and complicate source problems on a global scale; economical crisis leads to the social consequences in other countries.

It is necessary to reconsider all main kinds of relations: human’s relations to the nature, relations between social societies, human to human relation, relation to the past, history, ancestors.

The global concern is about the human, his ability to cope with the situation, his prospects to survive.
