Abstract
Abstract: When discussing the role of states in the world system, the conventional wisdom among scholars means different configurations of relations between leading states, i.e. the system of international relations. Such approach was fully grounded in the past, but in present-day conditions it is not only the place of the state in international relations system that counts, but also its place in the modern world political system, which includes also non-Westphalian states and their critical mass exceeds that of the Westphalian ones. The article suggests that a different approach has to be used and the research of leading states has to be replaced by the study of states within the broader framework of the world political system. In this view it is not only an individual state but the whole system being challenged today, thus it needs to be determined how the states so different in nature can coexist in one political system and whether a radical restructuring of the system should be expected.
