Philosophical Models for Understanding International Relations in Today`s Chaotic World.

Abstract

There are reasons to affirm that the international scenario of today's world is marked to a large extent by chaos, which is expressed in the development of a set of conflicts, internal and external, in progress or latent. In this sense, the objective of the research was to describe a-priori some philosophical models to understand international relations in today's chaotic world. Methodologically, geopolitical phenomenology and documentary compilation were used as a sufficient condition for the achievement of the set objective. The conclusion is that the integration of systems thinking and chaos theory with hermeneutics, phenomenology, critical analysis of political discourse and the neorealist approach, provides scholars and analysts with a greater ability to anticipate the multifaceted and often unexpected consequences of global interconnectedness.
