Abstract
The article describes various aspects of development dynamics of the international political system in the XXI century. The aim of the work is to determine the current state of the structure of the international political system and to assess the prospects for its further development. The article analyses general regularities of development of the structure of the international political system. The author concludes that the present structure of the international political system is gradually transforming. Its basic elements are eclectic because the process of transformation is uneven and incomplete. Moreover, the nature of relations between the main actors undergoes fundamental changes. The global arena tends to experience a heating confrontation against the background of increased ties within clusters of regional and macroregional actors.

Summary
The structure of the system of international relations has always remained one of the paradigms for political science. The study is significant due to the presence of major gaps in the degree of this research area. Recent empirical evidence is subject to reflection predominantly in the context of studying the cases of specific institutions and international organizations. Conceptual studies on the stated topic (despite the evident value and significance) are often built on the basis of a normative approach: experts combine the analysis of the situation with the description of how it should develop from the standpoint of a certain system of values or an ideal model (Kovalev, 2017; Lantsov, 2018; Radyukova, Kulik & Pakhomov, 2015; Revizorski, 2015). Many valuable publications that set the general direction for the topic research are based on the outdated empirical material. There is a need to update the results that were stated in those researches (Pantin & Lapkin,2002; Ramonova, 2011)
