The study set out to evaluate the theoretical, empirical and conceptual issues on COVID-19 Pandemic. It stated that the American system is described as a liberal capitalist system, which theoretically operates upon private ownership of the means of production, pursues profit in business trading as the motivation and production are for the markets. In this system, price mechanism determines demand and supply. China on the hand, had started reforms where they transited from Communism to Socialist market economy with strong State –Owned- Enterprises driving the economy. They have acquired the capitalist ethics of profit and competition hence aiming at profit in the global market place. In the course of this, they obtained favorable balance of trade with the U.S. The former U.S. president was desirous to change the situation, and started a trade-war with China which negotiations failed. In the midst of this came COVID-19,which this study termed the third World War given the fact that the number of nations and casualties caused by COVID-19, is greater than both the first and second World Wars. The study applied the descriptive research technique and deployed the Elite theory and the political economy perspective of analysis. It alluded to the logic of competition in capitalism which operates in both systems as accounting for the COVID-19 as ammunition to outwit one another. It outlined the manifest and latent manifest outcomes of the COVID-19, showing the various military ships in which their occupants were infected by COVID-19 after participating in the 7th CISM world Military games in Wuhan,-China. It also listed a number of Cruise-Liners which were docked because the occupants were infected by the virus. It concluded that just as global alliance helped to resolve the World wars and previous pandemic, global solidarity in finding out where and how the virus started and conduct research to find potent vaccine to end the pandemic is the solution to covid-19, else mankind would live with it.

On 11 February 2020, the WHO declared the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as a new pandemic defined as the illness caused by a novel coronavirus now called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) which was first identified amid an outbreak of respiratory illness cases in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China.  It has not been previously identified in humans but WHO mentioned the virus, SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted from human to human by hand. The COVID-19 has been spreading rapidly across the world, affecting more than 185 countries. Up to 11 May 2020, over four million people are infected and over one fourth of million individuals around the world have died from the COVID-19. Till now, there is no approved medicine to prevent COVID-19 infection. WHO said, it is one year away to receive COVID-19 vaccine. The above panic situation and global pandemic insists me to consider, it is the Third World War of Divine Creator, Allah by Bio-weapon due to Human’s recent activity against the Creator such as modification of the Holy Qur’an, insulting the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), etc. This paper presents the evidence of the involvement of Divine Creator in this pandemic, and the transmission of COVID-19 by human hand is simulated with the Divine Creator’s Code “19”. Based on the simulation, a probable treatment process is proposed to immediate relief of mankind from COVID-19. Again, evaluated by Divine Creator’s Code 19, it is suggested that the vaccine mRNA-1273, developed at the biotechnology company Moderna in Massachusetts, could be applicable (2-dose schedule at Day 57) to prevent infection with SARS-CoV-2 causes the disease COVID-19 but it is taking time for testing of safe and effectiveness which is going on in the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research Center in the United States of America.

The world is changing rapidly and irreversibly. The critical value of accumulated macroeconomic imbalances requires radical managerial decisions. As a solution to the problem, catastrophe just-in-time was chosen — preparation and implementation of key extreme events aimed at fundamentally reformatting the global economic management structure with achieving a new global investment and financial cycle based on massive issue of US dollars. The classical model of transforming global crises into the format of phased global financial iterations has now been augmented with a new strategic tool — the coronavirus. The result of implementing the coronavirus superstrategy, which was similar in power to the third world war and successfully replaced it, is the shift in key macroeconomic determinants. The USA once again postponed financial collapse for 10–15 years. Dimension of the financial special operation is unprecedented in terms of resources, territorial scales and depth of impact: former key players voluntarily sacrifice their identity for the opportunity to remain on the Great Chessboard at least in the form of pawns. The other countries’ claims to world leadership have been completely removed. For Russia, unlike most countries — geo-economic competitors, coronavirus reality became a marker confirming the Great Power status. Elaboration of a strategy for the economic development of Russia in relation to new conditions is on the agenda

One of the main goals of the Big Three meeting in Yalta was to guarantee the stability of a new postwar world order in a lasting way. In taking stock today, we can honestly recognize that for 75 years the world has been protected from the worst disaster of a third world war, even if it has been the scene of numerous conflicts. The "Yalta order" was, not without reason, criticized for a kind of “dividing of the world” among the USSR and the Anglo-Saxon Powers. Nevertheless, it was more respectful of nations, of their identity, of their independence then the new globalist order that has gradually replaced it. Today it is necessary to return to some essential principles of Yalta, at least to go back to the Yalta’s spirit, so that the vision of a multipolar world is imposed on all, while respecting sovereignties, identities, and nations.

In the last decade significant changes in capitalism are appearing, it entered a new stage. After the political breakdown of Feudalism in World War 1 a stage of capitalism that aimed at integration of all parts of society was slowly developing. 15 years later the authoritarian regimes of national socialism, Fascism, intermitted the evolution of Integrated Capitalism. Since 1945 it flourished again, though its political governance on a global level in recent decades ran into more and more contradictions. After the deep economic crisis of 2008 a turning point towards authoritarian governance of capitalism – in particular in the USA – is evident. Since this type of new nationalist authoritarian capitalism destroys global integration it is called Disintegrating Capitalism. An immediate consequence of the global contradiction between worldwide interwoven production processes and rivalries between nationalist regimes is a rapidly rising danger of a third World War. The second, more speculative part of the paper explores possible forms, which this WW3 could take on. A conclusion provides some ideas on possibilities to react to war tensions.

Em 1983, como parte dos eventos organizados pelo Greater London Council para o International Year of  Peace, a televisão britânica exibiu um diálogo gravado em novembro de 1981 entre dois historiadores marxistas e ativistas de grande projeção pública naquele momento: E. P. Thompson e C. L. R. James. No programa, intitulado “Talking History”, os dois estudiosos debateram variados temas de sua história recente, partindo dos movimentos mundiais contrários ao uso de armas nucleares, passando por eventos políticos da Europa, África, Ásia e chegando mesmo a tecer algumas considerações metodológicas sobre o fazer historiográfico. A discussão dura cerca de 50 minutos e é acompanhada pelo som do músico, poeta etambém ativista dos direitos humanos Spartacus R. (Roy Bedeau), mais especificamente de seu álbum “Third World War” (Zara Music Records, 1983). Acreditando no valor documental da conversa e na atualidade de algumas questões nela abordadas,  ublicamos abaixo o trabalho de tradução e transcrição do dito material realizado por Erik W. B. Borda e Wanderson da S. Chaves, precedido por um instigante ensaio introdutório de autoria da mesma dupla de pesquisadores.

The author defines “war panic” and analyzes specific manifestations of the phenomenon: the war panics that Poland experienced repeatedly after the Second World War. The author demonstrates that for Polish society the Second World War was the most traumatic event of the twentieth century, and that it left behind not only the human losses and a sea of ruins, but enormous deposits of fear. These ap- peared above all in flight behavior, the hoarding of shop goods, and the withdrawal of money from banks in order, for instance, to buy jewelry – every time the pattern was the same. The first war panic occurred already in 1945. Until the end of the 1960s, Poles were convinced that a third world war was just around the corner. The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan also induced a panic. Poles were afraid of war, but war was also used to threaten them. During the Stalinist period, the threat was of American imperialism, and in the 1970s, of German “militarists” and “revanchists.” The Second World War did not entirely end in 1945. The author claims that we can speak of its long-term, post-war continuation.

Introduction. The article is devoted to the study of problematic issues of ensuring the Russian national security. The view is expressed that historically emerging challenges and threats came to a different, qualitatively new level, which became a serious factor threatening the national security of the Russian Federation.Methods. The individual issues of national security, which for Russia were actualized at the turn of the XX-XXI centuries, were largely due to the change in the geopolitical picture of the world, and in particular the transition from bipolar to a multipolar world system.Results. The causes of military-political conflicts of the post-war period, which were reduced to the political-ideological and geopolitical rivalry of superpowers and their allies in separate regions of the world, as well as the desire to extend their influence to individual countries or their groups, were determined. At the same time, military force became a special tool of politics. The brief description of the threat of international terrorism, which is united under the flags of various religious-political formations, is in fact represented by the Third World War, acquiring the form of a structurally organized phenomenon aimed at escalating the confrontation between the West and the East. The norms and principles of international law, as well as the responsibility of the world community, the United Nations for the prevention, localization and cessation of conflicts through peacemaking, are considered.Conclusions. It is concluded that it is necessary to stop the division of countries into blocs and to join efforts to make adequate political and legal decisions that ensure a “balance of interests”.
