Globalization of law is а process of creating a unified global legal system. The globalization process begins by the appearance of law, before the four millennia. Given the way to achieve globalization, in the history of the globalization of law, can be discerned three forms of it. These are: forced globalization that is accomplished by imposing own legal system to the population in the conquered territories, after previo-usly successfully conducted wars of conquest; spontaneous globaliza-tion which is a result of interaction of the subsystems of world civiliza-tions and cultures; legally based globalization that is characterized by the fact that the national legal acts of state are made on the basis of international documents that these countries have signed and ratified. These forms of globalization are mutually intertwined and one of them is always dominant.
The process of creating the European Union imposed the need to harmonize the law of countries aspiring for EU membership, to Euro-pean Union law. Republic Macedonia has received candidate status for EU membership in 2005. Since then, the process of harmonizing of its law with the law of the Union gained intensity. Today, the legal system of the Republic of Macedonia is in the final stage of harmonization with all its positive and negative impacts.
