The principle of great power competition – with its corollary of strategic stability – can no longer be the organisational element of the international system, as it was during the Cold War period.
We are facing a systemic problem: how globalisation is going to be directed and what course it will pursue, in the face of the greatest challenges facing humanity as a whole: ecological degradation and the constant irruption of science and technology.
