Training Research and Diplomatic Personnel in the Era of the Global Order Transformation
Abstract
In the world of today diplomats, as well as researchers in the field of international relations and political science, must possess a wide range of skills and expertise, which is why their professional training has been and remains a priority at the state level. However, the realities of the third decade of the 21st century are characterized by transformation of the global order in all spheres — from political and economic to social and cultural. Thus, the adequacy of current training methods of corresponding specialists is under question, given contemporary requirements. The article aims at analyzing established programs of training research and diplomatic personnel in Russia on the basis of MGIMO University and at formulating possible ways of addressing the identified problems.
