The article is dedicated to an essential scientific problem of international system organization, hierarchy specifics of its elements and correlation between them in the new world order forming. The peculiarities of new order composition and its global and regional trends are accentuated. A special attention has been paid to the theoretical basis of the world order studies. Assuming that the concept of international system is the key to the whole subject of international relations, the main attention is focused on alternative models of the new world order within the system evolution of international relations. Characteristics of new world order formation, its global trends and regional tendencies and their direct influence on Ukraine are being defined as well. In building a world order, a key question inevitable concerns the substance of its unifying principles. The Westphalian model relied on a system of independent states refraining from interference in each other` s domestic affairs through a general equilibrium of power. But now the Westphalian principles are being challenged on all sides. It means the necessity of modernization of the Westphalian system informed by contemporary realities. Comparative analyses of the alternative models of world order was performed. Special attention is being paid to Chinese and Indian development paradigms in conditions of new world order composition. China was the center of its own hierarchical and theoretically universal concept of order. The process of China’s perception of its status as a global power was long and difficult. China has agreed with its self-identification as a responsible global power. The emergence of China to the position of responsible global power has become as a result of a country’s development. Chinese political analysts have devoted more attention since the late 1990s to the elaboration of the concept of the responsibility of China as a global power. The concept of “peaceful rise” of China and the formula of “peaceful development” have evoked broad response. The foreign policy activity of India is accompanied by putting forward a number of concepts, which are aimed at showing the world community the main targets, forms and methods of the country’s activity in the international arena. Authors investigated the nature of Islamic model, the main provisions of its ideology, relating to international relations and the new world order forming. Islamic fundamentalism dismantles states in quest of vision revolution based on the fundamentalist version of their religion. It was outlined that the new world order cannot be achieved by any one country ore civilization acting alone.
