HUMANIZATION OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AS AN URGENT REQUIREMENT OF THE TIME

Abstract

The theoretical problems of the development of international relations in modern conditions of geopolitical and geo-economic uncertainty, the conditions of increasing various kinds of conflicts, growing contradictions between the United States and China, the uncertainty of Trump's strategy and the emerging new world order, the development of information and communication technologies, for example, artificial intelligence, are considered. In such circumstances, it is humanization that should play a key role in world politics and international relations.  The main factors of humanization of the current system of international relations are characterized. An attempt is made to comprehensively analyze modern public diplomacy as one of the main factors in the humanization of international relations. The analysis of the modern policy of the CIS countries in the context of the humanization of international relations is carried out. It is shown that the lack of stable democratic traditions, the consequences of the collapse of the totalitarian state, the legacy of the USSR in the form of a difficult economic and interethnic situation, as well as the weakness of civil society explain the numerous human rights problems in these countries. It is concluded that in modern international relations there are enough opportunities for the process of humanization.
