From a unipolar to a multipolar world: theoretical justifi cation of the inevitability of the transformation of the world order

For many years, there has been an active discussion among domestic and foreign specialists in international relations, experts and observers on the transformation of the modern world order. At the same time, a variety of problems are discussed, ranging from the timing of the end of the era of the unipolar world to the configuration of the future multipolar world and its main authors. The author of this article tries to give scientifically grounded answers to all these questions, referring to the works and statements of various representatives of offi cial authorities, the academic world and practical foreign policy. At the same time, emphasis is placed on the statements of US political scientists who are unsuccessfully trying to convince the White House of the inevitability of the end of the era of the hegemony of the United States of America and the advent of the era of "multi-party impartiality".
