Abstract
The post-Cold War international system has been characterized by the coexistence and interplay of contradictory centrifugal and centripetal forces both at the political level (where there are manifestations of unipolarity but at the same time the emergence of the PRC as a new global power prepared to challenge in the future the current US monopoly) and at the economic level, where the intensification and acceleration of globalization coexists with the expansion and consolidation of regionalism.
