One of the most apparent effect of globalization processes is the opposite process called glocalism, glocalisation or a new localism. The borderland became the site of the revival of regional identity and regaining the local tradition. The notion of the borderland, as applied in studies of culture, is equivocal and its comprehension is much wider then its hitherto territorial meaning. Borderlands are perceived today as places of incommensurable inconsistencies, as zones of cultural interconnections where processes of cultural melting of styles occurs. It causes that anthropologists involved in the subject refers not only to the idea of territorially located culture.
