The ideas discussed in this edition lead us to a speedy integration of the sixth great debate in international relations theory into the main currents of IR theory that will inherently revolve around the imperatives of clarity, accountability, and transformative compartmentalization. This process was already initiated in the publication titled Dealing with Regional Conflicts of Global Importance (2024) and followed by the Analyzing Global Responses to Contemporary Regional Conflicts (2024).

​

The sixth debate is ongoing and probably will be until the war in Ukraine ends, or when Ukraine is admitted to NATO and the European Union. The voices of academics who have already taken part in this debate add a unique perspective to the main current of this debate. If we want to strengthen conflict management and reanimate our conflict resolution endeavors, IR theory must simply revamp its methodology to increase accessibility for everyone, regardless of their background. The main observations of this part of the debate will be integrated in the main current of the sixth great debate in IR theory, which revolves around clarity in describing various stages of any given ongoing regional conflict of global importance, which in turn contributes to the broader efforts to devise the most applicable solutions to ongoing confrontations and tensions between various countries and other non-state actors.
