CHUMAKOV GLOBAL WORLD:CLASH OF INTERESTS This book is the final part of a trilogy dedicated to the general theory of globalization, which the author has been actively researching during the last two decades. In the previous two volumes, globalization is presented as a natural historical process; the global world is seen as an objective reality, with the global humankind being part of it. While the first volume analyzes the origins of global processes and the main stages of their development in the different spheres of social life, the second one views globalization as if from within a society, when globalization is presented in unbreakable connection with the cultural and civilizational development of separate social systems, formatting, thus, the global humankind as a whole as a single cultural-cum-civilizational system. Now, leaning on the initial research, the author’s aim is to demonstrate the structure and the dynamics of changes in the global world from the point of view of how it evolves as a holistic, spontaneously regulated and completely uncontrollable cultural-cum-civilizational system. The author also examines the most likely ways and scenarios of further development for the global world. The study begins with identifying geopolitical realities of the twenty-first century and analyzing interactions of the major actors on the world stage, which are supposed to be an integral part of the global world and to determine that, first and foremost, the nature of contemporary international relations. On this subject there are many various studies and publications, yet none of them is based on the holistic vision of the modern world and of the humanity, which, together with the geosphere and the biosphere makes the triosphere of the Earth. But now time has come for this sort of analysis. Moreover, everything rapidly changes not only under the influence of the increasing multifaceted globalization, but due to the increase in the information and technological revolution. Newer and better technologies, media tools and communication transform not only nations and peoples but also all inhabitants of the planet into a single community, a holistic system. As a result, competition on the world stage is increasing, confrontation grows, struggle for dominance and for the best economic, political, cultural, and ideological positions becomes more acute. Such problems, referred to as “global” since the time of their "discovery" in the second half of the twentieth century, can not be solved without a theoretical understanding of their nature, essence and caused, as well as without joint efforts and concerted action of the absolute majority of the inhabitants of the Earth. Details and separated facts of the positive or negative interaction of the various parties in the course of overcoming our common problems are not of fundamental importance, because our task is to find fundamental solutions for a prosperous future of the humanity, which is already planetary.
