ABSTRACT
The phenomenon of globalisation can be looked at from a number of perspectives. However, the distinctive characteristic of the philosophical perspective is its focus on the normative aspect of a phenomenon. Social philosophy makes no exception: Among social philosophers, it is a widely held assumption that a democracy society depends on specific normative resources of its members and cannot remain stable without these resources. While this is a descriptive claim at first, a consequence drawn regularly is the normative claim that members of democratic societies should propagate these normative resources.
