Summary/Abstract: Present unipolar international relations’ structure is a previously unknown situation. Authors present some aspects of the phenomenon discussed among scientists and scholars. Paper is focused on the following issues: arguments for long durability of unipolarity, and the benefits of the system – for the unipole and the lesser partners. Not only theoretical arguments are presented, but also the empirical data for different interpretations of unipolarity are presented. Some examples form the history of the last quarter of century, up to present times (summer 2015).
