MODERN WORLD ORDER CHARACTERISTICS

Introduction: in the modern world, the models of civilizational development are changing. The authors analyze the transition from a bipolar model of international relations to a unipolar world, the prospects for the emergence of multipolarity, the growth of power centers, the state of the world legal order and its new content, Russia’s position in the world and probable threats, challenges, development of the regulatory framework and the factors determining Russia’s domestic and foreign policy, defense capability of our country and the CSTO countries. In the coming century, the study of the world order is especially important for ensuring national security. The authors draw attention to the key area of interaction between the EU and NATO, highlighting military mobility (the ability to quickly move forces across Europe, if necessary). It is a matter of concern that over the past four years, NATO has invested 2 billion euros in projects that support military mobility. The signing of the declaration of the EU and NATO on further cooperation is a reaction to the changed international situation and to the desire clearly expressed by European leaders to take care of their own defense. In these circumstances, national security becomes an indispensable condition and protector of our country’s development, creating conditions for a dignified and peaceful life for Russian citizens. Methods: in order to improve legal regulation in the area of the world order, the authors identify the approaches aimed to achieving its effectiveness. This applies to the conceptual and categorical instrument, the need to introduce the special subjects on national security in the educational process. Methodological tools of the research are the complex use of activity, system, socio-cultural, civilizational and other approaches involving the ideas and provisions of the theory of state and law, political science and other areas of science. Analysis: the main research aim for the analysis of the global legal order problems is the search for socio-cultural and value-based grounds for the security of the Russian Federation. Results: during the implementation of the security proposals, there appear some difficulties posed by the new types of war (hybrid, soft, diplomatic, trade), international terrorism. Prevention of wars can be based on an effective world order. There arises the need in its deep philosophical and political legal study, with the participation of scientists and practitioners – representatives of the humane, natural, scientific, technical, military and other branches of knowledge.
