The article discusses the connection between the theory and practice of economic integration and some observed structural changes in the global economy. This study derives a new typology of integration agreements and proposes a new, expanded theoretical framework for economic integration, including a new "three-dimensional" understanding of integration and reflecting participation and engagement in integration processes as a new instrument of international trade policy. In conclusion, some questions are posed related to the need for a new geo-economic paradigm for understanding and analysing processes in the global economy.
