Maailmanjärjestyksen murros - tulevaisuuden rauhan edellytys

Abstract

In this article, the past and present development of the world order is discussed from the holistic perspectives of functionalism, hegemony theories, civilization theories, and evolutionary systems theory, among others, in order to explain why this transition of world order has been reached and heuristically argue what future solutions are needed to enable a new order and peace for relations between states. One of the results of my research is that for the first time in the history of the world order, we are in a situation where no state has the opportunity to become the hegemonic leader of the world system. This situation creates an opportunity for a change in the world order, as well as a prerequisite for it, as old structures and functions collapse and become dysfunctional.
