Participants of the inteational symposium “Creating the Future” at the National Center “Russia” discussed the concept of rule-based order, the potential for effective regulation of state relations, and other topics.

Ekaterina Kopylova, Advisor to the Office of the President of the Russian Federation for Public Projects, moderated the round table “The Future of Inteational Law.” “We were taught that there is inteational law, and it applies to all. At its foundation is the UN. The universality of inteational law was considered the key to peaceful coexistence among states. But the most dangerous thing is to deny reality,” she stated, opening the discussion.

Kopylova clarified that for many years, several countries have adhered to a “rule-based order” that contrasts with inteational law. The issue arises when one country attempts to impose its vision of inteational relations regulation on others. This, she said, leads to a reconsideration of the general theory of inteational law.

Goran Petronijevic, President of the Serbian Center for the Restoration of Inteational Law, highlighted a major trend in the mode global order: the shift from neoliberal globalism to a multipolar world.

“We see that instead of rights, the concept of ‘rule’ is being introduced. Inteational law is backed by the consent of all inteational components, whereas rules are backed only by the power of the hegemon. However, over the past 15 years, there has been a noticeable trend of declining neoliberal globalism. The decline of hegemonic influence coincides with the growth of the economic, military, and political power of the rest of the inteational community, thus the formation of a multipolar world continues,” said Goran Petronijevic.

Lai Camara, an arbitrator of inteational commercial arbitration from France, noted the historical roots of inteational law, emphasizing that it was initially formed in the interests of the Weste world, focusing on the balance and equilibrium of European countries, while other nations were excluded from this equation.

“We understand that inteational law as it was created was made by the Weste world and for the Weste world, for Europeans. They embedded what interested them — equilibrium, balance for European countries, while other countries had no place in it,” the expert pointed out.

Participants also addressed the topic of environmental security in inteational law. Kent Hasret Comak, a professor in the Department of Political Science and Public Administration at Istanbul University, emphasized that despite the progress made by the global community in environmental protection, serious challenges still arise, and solutions are only possible with inteational legal support.

Additionally, on November 6, the symposium held a panel discussion titled “The Future of Digital Inteational Relations.” Experts discussed how digital transformation affects inteational relations and why new technologies can become a key factor in the development of a multipolar world order. Russian and foreign experts participated in the discussion.

The inteational symposium “Creating the Future” is taking place from November 4 to 6. The event’s participants include scientists, researchers, futurists, science fiction writers, and govement officials from 101 countries, including Russia, India, Italy, Iran, China, the UAE, Serbia, the USA, and France. The program features sessions on four main themes: the future of humanity, the future of technology, the future of a multipolar world, and the future of civilizations. The program and event broadcasts are available on the website https://future.russia.ru/.
