Abstract
The problem of the globalization of risks is examined in this article. Based on the World Economic Forum (WEF) report on global risks 2015-2017, the impact of global risks on the social and economic development of countries is examined. Economic, social, environmental, geopolitical, technological risks are analyzed in a coordinated fashion. The article notes that the main risks are in the field of environment and ecology. Anthropogenic pressure amplification, scientific and technological advance have an influence on the natural environment. The risks of infrastructure and environmental damage in danger zone are increased because of the growth of the frequency of extreme weather events. The measures for the protection of the environment are examined. The unilateral approach to solving international issues, instead of the collective efforts of the international community; the deployment of weapons of mass destruction (nuclear, chemical, biological) and technologies for the production of radioactive materials; escalation of economic and resource nationalization (the desire of States to expropriate or restrict the export of important for the world economy of resources), etc. promote the increasing geopolitical risks. Economic risks include the risk in terms of their likelihood their impact on the macroeconomic, as from the financial systems and infrastructure to price volatility and regulatory issues. Social risks are the risks relating to instability of population dynamics, social crises and human survival. Technological risks include such problems as software defects, failure of important information systems, upon which today industrial production is depended, the services and communications sector; the escalation of large-scale cyber-attacks; theft of electronic information and the illegal usage of personal data. The trends that can intensify the global risks or to change the correlation between them are analyzed in this article.

Global Risks as Factors that Affect the Current system of international Relations
Это: экологические, геополитические, социально-экономические, технологические [8]
Summary
Глобальные риски, как факторы, влияющие на современную систему международных отношений. Возрастанию геополитических рисков способствуют такие факторы, как односторонний подход к решению международных вопросов, вместо коллективных усилий мирового сообщества; развертывание оружия массового поражения (ядерного, химического, биологического) и технологий по производству радиоактивных материалов; эскалация экономической и ресурсной национализации (стремление государств экспроприировать или ограничить экспорт важных для мировой экономики ресурсов) и др. К технологическим рискам относятся такие проблемы как дефекты программного обеспечения, выход из строя ключевых информационных систем, от которых сегодня зависят промышленное производство, сфера услуг и коммуникации; эскалация крупномасштабных кибер-атак; кражи электронных данных и противоправное использование персональных данных. Также в статье анализируются тенденции, способные усилить глобальные риски или изменить соотношение между ними. А. Глобальные риски, как факторы, влияющие на современную систему международных отношений. Global Risks as Factors that Affect the Current system of international Relations
