В этот раз диапазон поднятых тем дал богатую пищу не только для политологов-прикладников, но и для тех, кто работает на развитие теории международных отношений и приращение нового знания. Стабильность мировой системы и роль гегемонии США в ее поддержании; «новые старые» зоны столкновения интересов великих держав; ретроспектива эффективности санкций в мировой политике; переосмысление «баланса сил» и других традиционных категорий международно-политического анализа с поправкой на изменившуюся стратегическую ситуацию; возможности для геополитического маневра России на постсоветском пространстве на фоне нарастающего давления с Запада; пути преодоления российско-евросоюзовского антагонизма… Такова – бегло – сюжетика авторских исследований, положенных в основу предлагаемого вниманию Читателя номера. А открывает его, представляя программу и смысл Валдайского форума, специальный комментарий члена его Программного комитета, профессора Олега БАРАБАНОВА.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Globalisation, social, economic and political integration, and the IT revolution, which to a various degree affected almost all countries in the world, shape the new political reality of the globe. Although political differentiation and heterogeneity persist and sometimes even increase, the global political world gains more cohesion and unity, while the individual countries that form it, despite their diverging development trajectories, become more interrelated and interdependent. Under these circumstances, it is especially important for both politicians, who make strategic decisions with global implications, and political analysts to study these global puzzles in order to obtain a coherent (integral) and multifaceted picture of the political state of the world. It should reflect such fundamental dimensions of global development as political system, political culture, political behavior, electoral process, party system and political consciousness. This would enable providing an observer with a dynamic image of the global political network, created by numerous interdependent elements. This network is defined by the existence and operations of nation-states, dominating in the current world. Neither Political Science in general, nor Area Studies, nor World Politics as academic disciplines could provide such a panoramic overview, as they do not have such tasks in the first place. Even comparative politics is not able to depict it, although without its methodology, it is impossible to draw such a picture. The author claims that global panoramic overview of the current political reality requires a separate academic discipline with its own focus and field of study. The article offers a possible scheme of formation and the major potential attributes of this discipline, which is referred to as “world-politology”.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>мир-политология</kwd><kwd>политология</kwd><kwd>сравнительная политика</kwd><kwd>сравнительный анализ</kwd><kwd>политическая система</kwd><kwd>политическая сеть</kwd><kwd>современный политический атлас</kwd><kwd>мировая политика</kwd><kwd>глобализация</kwd><kwd>интеграция</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>world-politology</kwd><kwd>political science</kwd><kwd>comparative politics</kwd><kwd>comparative analysis</kwd><kwd>political system</kwd><kwd>political network</kwd><kwd>modern political atlas</kwd><kwd>world politics</kwd><kwd>globalisation</kwd><kwd>integration</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title></ref-list><fn-group><fn fn-type="conflict"><p>The authors declare that there are no conflicts of interest present.</p></fn></fn-group></back></article>
