Summary/Abstract |
HUMANITY is going through a painful process of deglobalization. Whetherthis process is inevitable or not (and if not, then who is responsible for it) is a matter of debate. In any case, the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 and the postcrisis period of 2010-2013 made it abundantly clear that globalization's linear development, to say nothing of its exponential development, is a thing of the past. Certain parameters of interconnection, such as international trade and direct foreign investment volumes, managed to recover by the middle of the 2010s, only to collapse once more at the end of that decade. Today, centrifugal processes have already gathered a lot of inertia. This means that those who expect that some single event (even a very significant one, such as Joe Biden taking office in the United States) may stem the process, let alone reverse it, are indulging in wishful thinking.

Summary/Abstract |
A. Frolov (A.F.): The U.S. foreign policy today has fallen on hard times. The world is entering a new era with a lot of totally new challenges, including untraditional challenges that the U.S. leadership is faced with. In some instances, Washington manages to fit into ongoing processes while in others, the situation starts to follow a different scenario and then this policy, which is based on a number of important and fundamental principles, begins to founder.
