Zusammenfassung:Underlying the process of the ending of the Cold War are the forces of internationalization represented by the market and forces of democratization rooted in civil society. Each of these two dynamics has developed unevenly in modern history, giving rise to contradictions, particularly between capitalist internationalization and political democratization.
