Annotation

The course is offered to students with interest in territorial dimension of International relations, which should be evaluated and analyzed with tools offered by political geography and geopolitics. We will focus on two main issues. Firstly, evolution of European system of states (roughly between 9. century AD to period of Napoleonic wars, when system of nations-states was established). Secondly on gradual formation of global international system under control of European powers.
