Abstract

Aim. To study the geopolitical causes of the process of guided dismantling of the global socialist project during the second half of the XX –first quarter of the XXI century.

Methodology. The main content of the study is an analysis of the causes, main forms and stages of the struggle of Western countries against the global socialist project during the second half of the XX – first quarter of the XXI century. Systematic, comparative and phenomenological research methods are used.

Results. The struggle against the global socialist project on the part of Western countries has as its main goal the preservation of the parameters of the capitalist mode of production throughout the world, which throughout the XX – first quarter of the XXI century was consistently carried out in the following regions: USSR/Russia and Eastern Europe; Middle East and North Africa; Latin America; East Asia.

Research implications. A certain contribution to the theory of political systems is establishing a direct relationship between the process of guided dismantling of the global socialist project and the interests of the largest business corporations, as well as consideration of the main forms and stages of manifestation of this phenomenon.
