Вызовы современности в ретроспекции долгосрочного тренда развития колониализма

Abstract

Relevance. The global structural crisis of the liberal socio-economic system indicates the need to resolve the accumulated contradictions, which is possible only if they are comprehensively analyzed, and the reasons for their generation are found. In particular, under these conditions, the political economic approach to the analysis of the global socio-economic system, which previously revealed its inherent hierarchy, is being reactulated. Thus, the study of the socio-economic system of neocolonialism is becoming relevant again. The purpose of the study is to identify the features of the socio-economic system of neocolonialism as one of the main causes of the global structural crisis that has arisen. Objectives. This goal is achieved by solving the following objectives: identifying the socio-economic system of neocolonialism that really exists on a global scale, which continues to exist and develop after the nominal collapse of empires in the 60’s of the 20th century, as well as representing its destructive impact on the development of the global socio-economic system. Methodology. The solution of these tasks is carried out by applying general scientific research methods within the framework of logical, statistical and comparative analysis. The result of the conducted research is the confirmation of the existence of the socio-economic system of neocolonialism, which has a decisive influence on the global socio-economic system. Conclusions. The conducted research is applicable for the structural analysis of global socio-economic processes, as well as the formation of interdisciplinary theoretical models that reveal the destructive processes taking place in the modern market world system and allow in the search for ways out of the current global comprehensive crisis, which is especially relevant for Russia, which is in a colonial situation, and has the whole range of properties characteristic of the countries of the periphery of the world capitalist system, which entails all the challenges inherent in this situation.
