The development of trade relations in the global economy and their impact on international economic processes

The subject of the study is international trade relations as a component of the global economic system and the mechanisms of their influence on the transformation of international economic processes in the context of globalization and structural changes in the world economy.The purpose of the study is to substantiate the theoretical and methodological principles of the development of trade relations in the global economy and determine their role in the formation of modern international economic processes, in particular in the redistribution of resources, the transformation of production chains and the change in the competitive positions of countries.Research methods. The work uses methods of analysis and synthesis to generalize theoretical approaches to international trade, a systemic approach to study the relationship between trade relations and global economic processes, institutional analysis to assess the role of international economic institutions, as well as comparative analysis to compare traditional and modern models of world trade development.Results of the work. It is proven that the development of trade relations in the global economy is one of the key factors in the transformation of international economic processes, as it determines the dynamics of economic growth, structural shifts in production and the level of integration of national economies into the world economy. It is substantiated that modern trade relations go beyond the exchange of goods and cover services, capital, technologies and data, which significantly changes the nature of international economic interaction.Field of application of the results. The results of the study can be used in the formation of foreign economic policy of states, the activities of international economic organizations, as well as in the scientific and educational process when studying the problems of the global economy and international trade.Conclusions. The development of trade relations in the global economy has a system–forming impact on international economic processes, determining the directions and rates of transformation of the world economy.
