The Collapsing Global Order: A World in Transition
The world's old rules are breaking down.
The US, which used to be the main power, isn't as strong or reliable anymore.
There are wars and problems in places like Ukraine and the Middle East, making things worse.
Groups like the UN can't agree and new groups of countries are becoming powerful, changing how the world works.
This means countries like India need to be careful and smart about how they deal with others.
The post-World War II global order is collapsing due to various factors.
The US's declining power and erratic foreign policy are contributing to instability.
Conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East are destabilizing Europe and West Asia.
Global governance mechanisms are faltering, with the UN Security Council paralyzed.
The rise of new blocs like BRICS signals a rebalancing of global power.
