The article presents the approaches of political scientists studying the impact of foreign policy and international environment on the formation of a specialized part of political consciousness. Reflection of the international political processes in human and social consciousness has led to the emergence of new terms that take into account the specifics of their display in the modern consciousness. Among them are global (globalist, planetary, geopolitical) and foreign consciousness which served as the starting point in the development of the concept “European political consciousness” interpreted as regional consciousness. According to the author, political consciousness is complicated, and without reflection of the international processes there can’t be successful transformation of foreign policy and global problems of mankind.
