Cognizant of increasing chaos in world politics, American, European, and Russian politicians discuss the need to regulate the emerging world-order. The article compares typical concepts the politicians use to describe the new world-order. To analyze the American perspective, those authors look at views of both republicans and democrats. President Putin stated the Russian position at the 2014 Valdai club meeting. To understand the European view the authors use the article “The New European Disorder” by I. Krastev and M. Leonard. The article differentiates approaches to describing a new world-order, values that can serve as a basis for world-order models, as well as temporal and spatial dimensions of the above models. Comparing these models seems relevant and timely, as there appear new challenges in world politics and relations between Russia and the West are increasingly riven by discord. Both American and Russian thinking about this world-order is done within the framework of modernity and is based on assumptions of classical political realism. The European post-modern post-Westphalian model contradicts the very idea of sovereignty and is unlikely to serve as the basis for a global world-order. While the European view differs from the Russian and the American ones, all see the future as a world-order of regions.
