This study identifies global factors conditioning the global problematics of the direction
of social development. Global threats were evaluated and defined as dangerous
processes, phenomena, and situations that cause harm to health, safety, well-being,
and the lives of all humanity, and require removal. The essence of global risks was
defined. These risks were defined as events or conditions that may cause a significant
negative effect for several countries or spheres within a strategic period if they occur.
Global problems were conceptualized. These problems were defined as phenomena,
matters, and situations that are not completely understandable, interesting, actual, require
solving and regulation, and in addition do not have unified solutions. Current
global challenges were analyzed, defined as strategic guidelines that cause transformational
changes and are receiving attention from humanity. Global trends were defined
as courses of social development. The composition and role of global actors were described,
and defined as international organizations, leading states, regional organizations,
powerful corporations, institutional investors, large cities, and well-known personalities.
The directions of positive courses of social development were developed by
means of using the authors’ mechanism of solving the global problematics.
