| dc.description.abstract-translated | Currently we are witnessing new situations in international relations. The international political climate has cooled down once again, and a “New Cold War” is often mentioned nowadays. Despite our rich and multi-layered knowledge of the Cold War, there are firm signs that our thinking about its conceptual nature has been influenced retrospectively by the most recent international affairs in general and by the Russo-Ukrainian war in particular. The author of this study argues that it is worth considering a possibility of a “new” or “re-started” or “renewed” or “re-launched” Cold War. In the author’s understanding, since 1991 the meaning of the term Cold War has expanded. On the one hand, Cold War is far more than a historical era; on the other hand, the public opinion considers it, in its renewed form, a phenomenon that means and refers to any kind of disorderly and destabilized international relations. Consequently, a new periodization for the most recent history can be proposed such as the old Cold War; the post-Bipolar era; and the renewed Cold War (from 2007/2014/2022 onward). The author’s main argument says that the scale of the renewed Cold War is smaller than the scope and the scale that the old Cold War used to have, nevertheless, its significance regarding the world order is not smaller: Is it a start of a new world order based exclusively or dominantly on sheer force? | en |
