Towards Multipolarity: Historians’ Contribution to the Concept of a New World Order
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In April 2024, Moscow hosted the international scientific conference “Transition to Multipolarity and the Formation of a New World Order” organized by the Institute of World History of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Russian Historical Society. The event was attended by leading Russian experts, as well as foreign speakers from China, India, Iran, South Africa, Vietnam, Great Britain, France, Ireland, Canada, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Serbia and Bulgaria. The conference participants discussed a wide range of topical issues: from clarifying basic concepts and terms to analyzing the fundamental foundations of the new world order that is emerging today. Particular attention was paid to identifying the factors that led to the crisis of the unipolar world led by the United States, and the challenges that will be faced in building a more equitable world order. The emphasis was placed on studying the role of Russia and its BRICS partners, as well as the countries of the global South at the present historical stage. Within the framework of the conference, Russian and foreign experts discussed the concept document “The Multipolar World: Prospects for Development”. In the near future, international scientific events on this topic will continue.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
