Historical Evolution of International Society and its Influence on the Formation of Regional Sub-Systems of International Relations
The main principles of modern international system were formed at the turn of the 20th century. After World War II the decolonializing and modernizing Asia must choose between two versions of European model of modernization and development. The model of development within the old technological stage was exhausted at the end of the 20th century. Non-Western countries based on the Western model of market economy but with national characteristics put forward their own models of modernization and managed to “catch up” with the leaders of world systems. These factors challenged the Western mode of postindustrial development. Thus the modern model of high competition in modernization and development was created. This model requires education and training of a new generation of professionals through “responsible internationalization” of future Russian political elite.
