Abstract
The article considers scientific approaches to the study of foreign interference in national elections, which affects the internal and foreign policy of states, distorting the system of international relations. Based on the analysis of modern scientific literature the conclusion is made that despite the prevalence of foreign interference in elections, scientific knowledge is significantly delayed and cannot yet give the society and politicians a full scientific picture of what is happening. It is concluded that in the digital age, foreign electoral interference will become increasingly remote, election data will become increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks, the effectiveness of foreign interference will be facilitated by the shift to personalized and individualized tools, and the declining quality and veracity of information in new sources replacing traditional media. The response to these challenges from political science could be a new research agenda, the directions of which are defined in the article, and the implementation of which could reduce the negative effect of foreign electoral interference.
