MAIN TRENDS IN THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE SYSTEM OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS (IN THE WORLD SYSTEM)

Abstract

Background. The vast majority of world events at the end of the 20th century. and the beginning of the 21st century. caused by various conflicts, political and economic instability. This indicates the ineffectiveness of the existing mechanisms for coordinating the interests of the subjects of the system of international relations, and therefore the need to create new mechanisms that would take into account the main trends in the transformation of the system of international relations. Therefore, the identification and comprehensive analysis of the main trends in the transformation of the system of international relations in the context of the prospects for the formation of new centers of global and regional influence on the formation of the international agenda is an urgent task, as it allows to clarify the outlines of the architecture of the world order for the long term. The purpose of the work is to identify and comprehensively analyze the main trends in the transformation of the system of international relations in the context of the prospects for the formation of new centers of global and regional influence on the formation of a new world order.

Methods. The article uses a number of general scientific and special methods. So, in particular, when researching such international institutions as the EU, NATO, SCO and BRICS, the comparison method was used. Using the method of analysis, the most obvious trends of modern international relations were determined.

Results. The peculiarities of the formation and functioning of the system of international relations (world order) in certain historical periods in the context of defining world events are analyzed. It was found that the main determinant of the formation of the specified world order systems was the so-called redistribution of the world, namely the rejection (annexation, seizure) of certain territories from some countries and their entry into others. Globalization and informatization of all spheres of social life lead to an increasing dependence of states on each other. This prompts the creation of a new system of international relations (world order), which would be able to respond more adequately to the specified threats without the use of force instruments.

Conclusions. Analysis of the general context of the formation of a new system of international relations suggests that the formation of a multipolar system should be completed in the near future, which will lead to a certain stabilization in the field of international relations, which are currently largely in a chaotic state. At the same time, Ukraine, which is currently at war with Russia, faces an extremely difficult task of winning the chance to become a full-fledged subject of the new system of international relations (new world order).
