Abstract
The article deals with the role of political violence in the modern world through the prism of exacerbation of cultural-religious contradictions. Based on the analysis of statistical data, the tendencies of the spread of confrontation on religious grounds have been revealed, such as discrimination and impairment of the rights of religious communities, ethnic-confessional conflicts, and the spread of transnational religious terrorism. It is concluded that the politicization of religions is a significant factor of social and political destabilization both at the regional and global levels

Summary
One of the main destructive trends of the modern world is the general destabilization of the sociopolitical space This process is conditioned by a whole range of factors, among which - the aggravation of global problems: ecological, demographic, resource, energy, cultural and civilization, etc. Efforts to establish a collective security system on a global scale, the primary role of which is played by the United Nations, have failed. This is clearly indicated by the rapid increase of the number of political conflicts in many regions, the evolution and improvement of the forms of confrontation, the build-up of armaments, and the increase of the human casualties within the civilian population against the background of the inactivity of international structures
