This study is a strategic analysis of the profound transformations reshaping the international order since 2020. Through a geopolitical reading of major contemporary crises, this study deciphers the emergence of a multipolar world where power dynamics, supply chains, energy, and diplomacy are becoming the primary levers of competition between states.
