GEOPOLITICAL PARADIGMS: THE RELATIONSHIP OF ACTORS IN THE FORMATION OF POLYCENTRICISM

The article discusses the significance of geopolitical paradigms and their implementation by main actors in global politics in the transition from a unipolar to a polycentric world. The system of relations between the «great powers» is analyzed, their content and significance in the world politics of today. The authors substantiate the position that in the context of confrontational opposition, the priority of polycentricity allows in the historical perspective to take into account not only their own interests, but also the interests of regional actors. The characteristics of the status quo in the world and the place of Russia in it are given. It is shown that the conceptual provision of the interaction principles between the main actors in world politics gains not only theoretical but also practical importance in the process of formation and organization of geopolitical space.
