Challenges and contradiction of the "modern state" in the liberal world order

The liberal world order that the United States has led since the end of the Cold War is based on a standard of civilization that includes within its requirements the protection, promotion and dissemination of the modern state model: sovereign, independent, democratic, respectful of freedoms and fundamental, capitalist and globalized rights. In order to guarantee the preservation of the liberal order, the United States and its allies have been carrying out diplomatic, political, social, economic and cultural actions for more than three decades in defense of compliance with this model of statehood. However, these efforts, paradoxically far from contributing to the consolidation of the modern state, have indirectly ended up undermining its fundamental principles, compromising the standard of civilization, and consequently the stability and durability of the liberal order itself that they seek to safeguard.
