This anachro-nism arises from the contradictions between the nation-state and the democratic state of the global age. Two reasons for this dissonance are important: (1) the nation-states' commitment to their national interests and (2) American hegemony. Therefore, although the world has been living in a global age since the 1990s, many institutions, especially the nation-states and the United Nations, have not been transformed yet from the international system to the global system features. In addition to this fundamental transformation prob-lem, the world is facing global problems in the fields of social, economic, and security. I define all of these problems as ‘integrated threats.’ Likewise, I ar-gue that the elimination of this threat can be solved by ‘integrated responsi-bility’ accepted by all states. This article explains why we are compelled to structural transformation, and the concepts of integrated threat and integrated responsibility. © 2022, Uchitel Publishing House.
