La guerra in Ucraina e la disgregazione dell'ordine internazionale / A. Colombo. - In: TEORIA POLITICA. - ISSN 0394-1248. - 12:(2022), pp. 29-46.
Abstract:
The war in Ukraine is likely to mark a turning point in the international re-
lations of the 21st century. Firstly, it risks enhancing the dangerous bipolarization
of the international system around the competition between the West and its ene-
mies. Secondly, it reinforces this bipolarization with a growing militarization of
relations between the main powers. Moreover, it deals a new blow to economic
globalization, after those which had already resulted by the economic-financial cri-
sis of 2007-08 and the pandemic of Covid19. However, the war in Ukraine has
not caused the collapse of the international order; actually, it is only the outcome
of a collapse already underway for at least fifteen years. Such collapse has been
accompanied, as always in history, by a number of typical processes: the increasing
challenge of the rising powers to what is left of the previous hegemonic order; the
fallout of this challenge on the international political space, i.e. the tendency for
the rising powers to build regional spheres of influence against the global influence
of the United States and Europe; the weakening of the institutional fabric of inter-
national coexistence; eventually, the crisis of all its fundamental principles, those
which prescribe who are the subjects of the international order and what rules they
must follow in their relations.
