Глобальные проблемы: типология и взаимосвязь

Abstract

The article focuses on global problems of mankind at its current stage of development. Here, the author turns to the history of emergence of the notion and analyses causation and consequences of a range of the most important global problems nonproliferation of mass destruction weapons, widening of the gap between more developed and less developed states, ecology crises etc.) and their direct or indirect influence on the world community in the XX century. The article also reflects some completely new problems that have acquired global nature and are fraught with nearly the same destructive consequences in the XXI century — terrorism and growing drug addiction. The author ties up the solution of the given problems with real security strengthening on all levels both on the world and regional/national scale and forecasts apocalypse unless they are resolved.
