Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to analyze the usefulness of the liberal paradigm of international relations to scientific research aimed at explaining the disintegration trends functioning in some institutions of world politics. It is worthwhile to reflect on the possibility of applying this theory to the analysis of decomposition processes that can be perceived, for example, in Europe. The hypothesis is based on the statement that the research value of liberal thought, especially in the field of exploration of causes, course of actions, and the consequences of erosional phenomena of international regimes, is characterized by specific constraints, however its selected elements still remain valid. Considering the above, the liberal theory has been presented based on the beliefs of the leading foreign policy researchers who represent various trends in the analysis of international affairs. The qualitative concept used in the study led to the generation of a research method, which was used in order to reflect on the problems of disintegration of transnational bodies. The scientific procedure contained in article is aimed at capturing a new phenomenon of disintegration, an example of which is the perspective of the secession of Great Britain from the EU community, within the framework of one of the well-known paradigms of international relations.
