Abstract: Understanding the forms of regional orders in the contemporary international system requires a clear picture of its basic characteristics and the context in which the prevailing order was formed. Relationships between the actors have to be taken into account as well as the dominant behaviour patterns of the entities and institutions that created and shaped the regional order – power and behaviour of the regional powers, conflicts, cooperation and integration within the given region, and interference from external forces. This article presents a theoretical and analytical framework for determining the level of (in)stability of regional orders in the contemporary international system. The aim of this text is to help to measure the level of stability of individual regional orders and to enable their comparison across world regions.
