The goal of this theme is identification and analysis of factors conditioning functioning of contemporary states, constituting states’ environment and qualitatively new features of that environment. The theme is based on a presumption that contemporary states are based on an environment of factors dynamically influencing the states as well altering the conditions of states workings. For analytical purpose we will diversify these factors into internal factors and factors in international system, taking under consideration the overlapping and mutual conditioning of both dimensions.
