Sažetak
Situation in the world system has been characterized by huge and long-standing challenges caused by global economy and reinforcement of military power in the American foreign policy since George W Bush gained power. International politics has become extremely sensitive to possible threats arising in the world order from uncontrolled economic globalization and all the more present elements of hegemony in the foreign policy strategy of the USA. As long as the rules of globalization are not established and formed in the way that weaker countries can accept and implement them, control over globalization won't be possible. It is important to secure coherence of swift and big changes in international economic relations with changes in international political relations which would take place at a slower rate. The Bush Administration strives to step up these changes by securing a global political framework that would be adjusted optimally to the American needs of providing and sustaining security. If such policy is shaped up exclusively as a policy of securing the American hegemony, then the consequences could be threatening for stability of the world order.
