Abstract
The current process of globalization is making contemporary threats more acute, in particular armed conflict, the spread of viruses and infections, environmental problems, or destructive activities of organized criminal gangs. The global network and new technology will not only make our life easier and better but will also pose fatal threats to the international community. For instance, using the advantages of the global network to overthrow «undesirable political regimes» will lead to growing social tensions and create a fertile ground for the activities of extremist organizations.
