https://doi.org/10.26907/2079-5912.2024.1.21-30
Abstract
The article substantiates the separation of the concepts of the unity of purpose of the strategy (including the strategy of responsibility of the "circular review") and the variability of the main and main enemy. The authors believe that the main opponent of the West at the moment is Russia, and the main opponent for a long strategic period is China. The inconsistency of the West's simultaneous opposition to these antagonists is argued. The authors analyze the reasons for the variability of the "Big Game" of the world powers. The "globalist" layers are identified and systematized. The groups of antagonists within Russia itself are also highlighted. The variants of conflicts that can provoke these groups and the possibilities of their union and political advancement are considered. The main types of Westernism are also revealed.
