Global Crisis and the Liberal International Order: Critical Nodes in a Totality
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract This article explores the interconnectedness of diverse critical nodes within global capitalism. The crisis of legitimacy facing the Liberal International Order, combined with the rise of new geopolitical tensions, is analyzed as one facet of a deeper global crisis of hegemony, from which new far-right political forces emerge at the national level. This perspective considers how these seemingly unrelated events constitute a single unitary totality. The analysis begins with the vantage point of “internal” relations, where the crisis of hegemony represents, on a global scale, a crisis in the process of passive revolution. Brazil is discussed as a relevant example, offering insights into the concrete prospects of a global “war of position.” The discussion then shifts to the vantage point of “external” relations, critiquing this perspective as the most explicit manifestation of the same systemic process—a crisis of the Liberal International Order and the geopolitics of rising illiberal states.

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.
