In the era of globalization much of the stress has been given to the free trade and capitalist system order for mass production instead of production by masses. In the process of economic globalization due to the impact of capitalist mode of production violence is increasing in socio-economic sphere in larger context. In alternative terms we can put an argument for the establishment of non-violent economic order in Gandhian principles for resolving this contemporary economic crisis. Do we really need a high growth conflict intensive economy where exclusion, disparities and disturbance. These violent parameters make an economy in the trap of conflict-oriented peace less society. The burning socio –economic issues in the last few years have been the increasing conflicts amongst nations, individuals and civilization and continuously increasing the inequalities in all domains. These socio-economic evils indicate that economies of world are still in destructive in nature and in the trap of “Parasitic economy”. According to J.C Kumarappa in the “Parasitic economy “every economic activity is based on self-interested and violence is an essential part of social-political system.

Involving the thoughts of J.B Kriplani, Vinoba bhave, Kaka Kalekar and Shriman Naryan agarwal in multidimensional framework in the aspect of economic globalization will make this research work theologically strong.
