Summary/Abstract: The concept of global governance emerged in the 1990s as an attempt to transform the international order in accordance with the demands of globalisation and the global problems that became apparent. This article examines whether, in light of the ongoing war in Ukraine, this concept remains viable. The author posits the hypothesis that the Russian aggression of February 2022 definitively marked the end of the period in which one could speak of efforts to implement this idea. The article analyses the essence and previous attempts to realise the concept of global governance, as well as describes events related to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. The conducted analysis clearly indicates that in the third decade of the 21st century, global cooperation on issues such as climate change and economic disparities between countries has been sidelined by the resurgence of Cold War rhetoric and the conflict between the West and Russia. The methods employed by the author include the analysis and critique of scholarly literature, as well as the descriptive method.
