Abstract

The article reveals the content of international security from the point of view of various theoretical concepts and the possibility of creating a sustainable security model in the post-bipolar world. Analyzing the patterns of the formation of international security principles, the author tries to determine which of the theoretical concepts of international security are most appropriate in modern conditions and can best help to overcome the turbulence and uncertainties of world politics. The novelty of the study consists in the critical understanding of the basic theoretical concepts of security and the identification of the international security model that would reflect the practical experience of the past decades and take into account the interests of Russia.
