TELO, António José. Multipolar or apolar: a confused new world. []. , 31, pp.05-23. ISSN 1645-9199.

This article explores deeply the international system organization arguing that we are in an apolar world, bearing in mind a reflection about the 9/11. We will explore the evolution of the pole concept, and then evaluate the new balances of power through the analysis of three elements: the shifting of the traditional balances of power, the change on the rivalries and loyalties and the great emerging challenges.
