Abstract:
This article examines the types and forms of state sovereignty in the context of the global political system’s transition to a multipolar model. It also explores the impact of contemporary geopolitical processes on new opportunities for states of the global majority to exercise their sovereignty. The sovereignty of a modern state is examined considering the relevance of the principles of indivisibility and inalienability. The article concludes that the categories of cultural and digital sovereignty are significant, and that there is a direct connection between the formation of a multipolar geopolitical model and the development of certain forms of state sovereignty.
