On October 2-5, 2023 the XX Annual Meeting of the “Valdai” International Discussion Club titled "Fair Multipolarity: How to Ensure Security and Development for Everyone" is being held in Sochi.

On October 2 Feodor Voitolovsky, Acting Director of IMEMO, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, spoke at Session 1 "A World beyond Hegemony: BRICS as a Prototype of a New International Architecture".

A polycentric structure cannot be unified by definition. The centers of power, influence and development are culturally and ideologically self-sufficient. Creating a world order means developing mechanisms to take into account the interests of everyone and to work together for the development of all. This is the content of the BRICS. The organization has entered a new stage of its development, and its expansion means a transition to the gradual creation of another world system – not against someone, but on qualitatively different principles.


On October 3 Academician Alexander Dynkin, President of IMEMO, will be a speaker at Session 5 "The Russian Economy: Against All Odds or Thanks to the Shake-Up?".

Russia was subjected to an unprecedented act of economic warfare designed to eliminate the country from the world economy. It failed to do so, and Russia is demonstrating its ability not only to withstand but also to develop. What are the challenges facing the Russian economy and to what extent will they be addressed in cooperation with external partners? What is Russia ready to offer them? Will the 2022-2023 shake-up be the catalyst for new development?
