“…Rather, this involves the cultivation of shared and trusted rationales within the system – raison de système – emphasising the intersection of intelligence and diplomacy across primary and secondary institutions of international society. In terms of ES theorisation, the meaning of strategic empathy reaches farther and deeper into what are both primary and secondary institutions of international society, and the practical challenge is to place intelligence within a recognition of ‘deep pluralism’ (Acharya & Buzan, 2019: 261–284).…”

“…Taking a longer view of world history from nineteenth‐century colonialism, through the two World Wars, the Cold War and decolonisation, up to our post‐Ukraine time, suggests that making sense of current and future international society requires moving beyond the analytical and normative strictures of realist and liberal modes of IR thinking. Whether we like to call it a post‐Western world order or not, international society is a deeply ‘diffuse distribution of power, wealth and cultural authority’ (Acharya & Buzan, 2019: 265). Therefore, strategic empathy is no longer solely about recognising strategic interests of America, Russia and China, nor merely accepting that ‘the rest’ may have interests and ideas that are not in line with a Western conception of a good (international) society.…”

Despite the recent prominence of intelligence in post‐Ukraine global policy, it is a Cinderella in international relations studies. Using English School (ES) theorisation, we locate intelligence within the constellation of primary and secondary institutions in international society. Through looking at the Five Eyes, we explore where intelligence sits within widespread claims of a crisis of the post‐1945 liberal international order (LIO) and what role intelligence plays in diplomacy, war and great power management in the context of shifting global power dynamics. Following major twenty‐first century Western intelligence controversies, we argue against raison d'état approaches and for raison de système thinking. In the face of claims of a new Cold War between Russia, China and the West, we see an urgency for policymakers in open societies to re‐think intelligence from an international society perspective that is realistic and normative, and that pays attention to Global South dynamics. Insulating intelligence from politicisation is more important than ever but does not mean that intelligence is a value‐neutral government function.

“…On the other hand, Johansson (2022) developed the concept of the impact of multiculturalism on the development of modern social sectors through the prism of current challenges analysis. The peculiarities of the formation of globalising international relations are presented in Asatryan & Kalpakian (2021). The problem of developing the education of the future is presented in the study by Devadze, Gechbaia & Gvarishvili (2022).…”

Modern globalization processes are changing the perception and definition paradigm of the role of acquired knowledge in society. Based on new challenges, new ideas about this category are being formed. The purpose of the article is to determine the philosophical and intellectual contexts of the knowledge value in the context of modern globalization challenges based on a study of scientific literature. The object of the study is the knowledge phenomenon in philosophical, intellectual and educational discourses. The work is based on the use of theoretical research methods: analysis, synthesis, abstraction, comparativism. The methodology is also based on the principles of objectivity, criticality, and tolerance. Particularly, in order to broadly cover theoretical ideas about the essence of knowledge in the modern era, 50 positions of scientific literature, works of modern intellectuals and philosophers were analysed. The results consider globalization challenges to the modern system of knowledge acquisition and its value, trace the possibilities of using artificial intelligence for study and research, and explore the use of digital tools in order to improve the perception of information and knowledge. Particular attention is paid to the impact of globalisation on the modern knowledge system. Namely, it is determined that current changes in the labour market dictate new requirements for the knowledge formation. Traditional forms of education are being replaced by independent and non-formal learning, which are supported by self-motivation and the need to meet the expectations of employers. The author emphasises the relevance and further evolution of lifelong learning, the use and deepening of the integration of knowledge acquisition and digital information technologies. It is proposed that these vectors are adequate responses to globalisation challenges. The theoretical significance of the study lies in the attempts to predict the main vectors of knowledge development and systems of its acquisition in the future through the prism of philosophical and intellectual discourses. The practical significance of the work is to substantiate the effectiveness of non-degree education as a methodology for acquiring knowledge in the future. The conclusions note that the phenomenon of knowledge in the modern paradigm of globalisation processes is gaining new meaning and content, emphasising the role of knowledge in the system of uncontested educational trends. At the same time, in addition to summarising the main results, the conclusions also draw attention to the fact that the problematic point in determining the role of knowledge is the creation of artificial barriers to its dissemination.

“…Apart from a few English-language journals with quite diverse authorships, a study on the geographic diversity of authorship in 17 IR journals from Africa, East Asia, Europe, Latin America, North America, and the United Kingdom found that global IR is fragmented and provincial as all journals frequently publish works by authors located in their own region (Lohaus & Wemheuer-Vogelaar, 2021). In spite of the expansion of non-Western nations, the field of IR has evolved and for a considerable amount of time, has continued to be developed as a "Western know-how" (Asatryan & Kalpakian 2021). Even Central and Eastern Europe have been underrepresented in the IR literature (Alejandro, 2022).…”

As communications technology, air travel, and a complex international economy continue to make the world smaller, the importance of peaceful and cooperative relationships between nations increases. However, it is unclear to what extent research on international relations (IR) has expanded as a global discipline; narrated by balanced perspectives and provides an impact. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of 4,986 documents related to IR as recorded in the Scopus database from 1913 to 2022. Specifically, this paper analyzes (a) the trends and developments; (b) influential documents and frequent keywords and (c) major players in terms of productive journals, authors and institutions in IR studies. This paper provides a new panoramic view through tables and science maps on the publication of IR studies. The findings show a gradual interest in the IR field before the Second World War and this accelerated during the mid-twentieth century. Political economy is gaining more importance and most publications centre on IR theorieswhile discussing prevailing events affecting the world. However, the Western influence of IR is still primarily mainstream, whereIR publications are mainly controlled by large Western publishers, influenced by Western authors affiliated with long-establishedWestern institutions. Seemingly, the non-Western contributions to the IR field have yet to establish their own footing in the field despite much discussion about diversifying IR. This remains a challenge for non-Western scholars, journal publishers, and institutions seeking to contribute to the ongoing debate in the study of international relations.
