Abstract
The article considers macro-trends and short-term trends in the transformation of the world order. The author introduces the classification of international relations systems and proposes an interpretation of their change patterns. The author evaluates the historical dynamics of the balance of economic and military power of states, the influence of technological progress, demographic trends, and ideologies on the architecture of the future, post-unipolar world order. Its contours are determined by a contradictory set of factors acting both towards multipolarity and towards a new bipolarity.
