Features of competition between jurisdictions (states, municipalities, regions) for mobile factors (labor, investment, human capital) in the integrated world economy are con­sidered, in which there are four freedoms (freedom of trade (mobility of goods), freedom (mobility) of services, free movement of capital) and free movement of people) are guaran­teed. The main features of international rivalry in a globalized world are analyzed. Pro­spects for the development of states in the conditions of constitutional competition in the existing integration structures are established.

Given the conventional claim that external threats increase internal cohesion and government capacity, cross-country studies have examined how interstate conflict events influence domestic politics. This article reevaluates the in-group and out-group mechanisms by examining how international strategic rivalry, which indicates the presence of persistent external threats even in the absence of military conflict, affects domestic political competition. An alternative explanation suggests that the effect of external threats on political incentives of domestic actors differs between regime supporters and oppositions. We posit that the presence of international threats from rival states inflames domestic unrest and oppositions’ antiregime challenges, while making governments rely more on repressive tactics given resource constraints and a high level of domestic political intolerance. In addition, we propose that the domestic consequences of international rivalry are heterogeneous depending on the characteristics of political systems and the level of threat perception. Empirical tests reveal robust evidence for the hypotheses.
