Quick and Easy scoping question

I a module written in an object orient syntax that does this:

sub new {

	my $class = shift;
	my $this  = {};
	bless( $this, $class );
	$this->_init( @_ );
	
	return $this;
}

Is $this considered Global (i.e. am I going to run into the scoping 
issues
of $this->{data} persisting for multiple users?)

  This is actually a Perl question and not a mod_perl specific one, but
  no you won't run into scoping problems.
