Andrei P. Tsygankov

In an era of global instability and transition of power, those will survive who can adapt external and internal conditions to their needs. Markets, regional systems and military-political alliances are being redrawn worldwide. Modern great powerness should combine the protection of the world’s vital interests with active efforts to build a new world order and carry out necessary internal reforms.

Alexander F. Filippov

The living body is what matters. The bodies make up a population, a nation, citizenry that in most modern countries have been declared the bearers of sovereignty and the inalienable source of power.

Pavel A. Tsygankov

The realization of national interests, and of foreign policy in general, depends not only on the conscious, scientifically grounded formulation of the content of these interests, but also on the perception by state leaders of the “avails and needs of their homeland and the aspirations of other countries.”

Agenda

The Pandemic and the Price of Power

The medium-run future of energy markets will be dependent primarily on the course of the pandemic and the effectiveness of central banks and governments, rather than on the supply decisions of Russia and Saudi Arabia.

The Coronavirus: Biopolitics and the Rise of ‘Anthropocene Authoritarianism’

If the lesson of the global response to the Coronavirus is that humanity itself is the problem, then Anthropocene Authoritarianism looks set to pose a larger long-term challenge to our ways of life than the virus itself.

Lasting Effects of COVID-19 on States and Societies

The COVID-19 pandemic will permanently change our societies predominantly by accelerating changes that were already underway. This will happen in ways large and small, and many will be positive, but not all.

Oil Prices: An Action Strategy Is Needed

COVID-19: Europe Must Rise to the Challenge

COVID-19 will most likely become a critical factor of our age. Not only because this global crisis will certainly have political, economic, and social repercussions reverberating across the world for years to come, but because its consequences may well accelerate the change, if not tip outright the balance, for a new international order.

Coronavirus and the Collapse of the Liberal Order: Europe’s Fate Called Into Question

Massive restrictive measures related to the need to respond properly to the challenge of the pandemic spread of coronavirus infections is quite possibly the factor that was needed to recognise that the “liberal world order” has completely disintegrated.

A new world order: A view from Russia

Since around 2017–2018, the world has been living through a period of progressive erosion, or collapse, of international orders inherited from the past. With the election of Donald Trump and the rapid increase of US containment of Russia and China—which is both a consequence of this gradual erosion and also represents deep internal and international contradictions—this process entered its apogee.

Why Memory Wars Will Be More Acute, and How This Threatens the EU and Russia

Memory wars have sharply escalated. Mutual recriminations are voiced on a practically daily basis. Their proximate cause is the forthcoming 75th anniversary of the end of World War II. But what is at stake is contemporary politics, not history as such, and it is important to understand the actual reasons that have made the issue topical today.

Keynes Revisited: Delivering Growth Impulses in the Global Economy

As the world economy shows mounting signs of deceleration and recessionary fears intensify across global markets, the world community is likely to focus increasingly on how to undertake an effective anti-crisis response.
