Abstract

Based on the methodological possibilities of a complex-composite conflict, the features of a complex and contradictory process of formation, maturation and deployment of regional conflict in the post-Soviet space are investigated. It is shown that the decisive starting point, or "core", of the formation of the entire chain of mono-conflicts forming the "body" of the multidimensional formation of a complex-composite conflict, today is set by the geopolitical component. The processes of globalization have been replaced by deglobalization. The economic system based on the power of the dollar is collapsing and heading for its collapse. Various integration associations and international organizations act as alternatives to the "collective West" in the modern world: the EAEU, SCO, BRICS, etc. The Ukrainian crisis has actually pushed them to other models of action that contradict Western ones. They form the basis of the new emerging global political order, which is polycentric in nature. Russia has led this movement, challenging the West and its allies. However, at the moment, the position of the "collective West" is quite strong, moreover, it has demonstrated the ability to unite in the face of challenges and threats. However, time is inexorable, and the global political order has already begun to transform significantly.
