Multipolarization¹
The Munich Security Report²2025 [see attached file], analyzes the far-reaching consequences of the multipolarization of the international order.
For many politicians and citizens around the globe, a more multipolar world holds significant promise. But recent trends suggest that the negative effects of greater multipolarity are prevailing as divides between major powers grow and competition among different order models stands in the way of joint approaches to global crises and threats. The report therefore makes the case for “depolarization,” highlighting the need for substantial reforms of the international order
