Anotace

čeština

This is one of the courses of the CET Academic Programs (Central European Studies and Jewish Studies); the comprehensive information is available at https://bakalar.fhs.cuni.cz/SHV-211.html#2. The course starts with a brief overview of the main theories of international relations to summarize and build on students’ previous knowledge and understanding of potential and limitations of the theories in the study of international politics. The first couple of lessons cover the most influential IR theories – realism, liberalism, behaviorism, English school, and constructivism. All of them focus on explaining two phenomena in international relations: conflict and cooperation. The main focus of the course is on concrete examples of cooperation and conflict in international politics mostly in Central and Eastern Europe to acquire better understanding of the region in the light of IR theories. The topics include the Cold War with a number of selected events during its course (such as the Cuban Missile Crisis and invasion to Czechoslovakia in 1968), European integration and enlargement, dissolution of former Yugoslavia, contemporary Russia, EU election observation missions, Visegrád Group and Czech diplomacy in the Balkans, among others.

Požadavky k zápisu

The teaching period of the CET courses begins already within the week from January 27, 2025, onwards. 

Because of the early beginning of the CET tuition period before the Faculty course registration is opened, students will not be able to register for the CET courses through the SIS.

In order to be allowed to enroll in the course, you have to:

  *   attend all classes of the particular course during the first week and sign in the attendance sheet form 

  *   send a registration e-mail to [e-mail] by January 31, 2025, to confirm that you would like to be enrolled in the course

If the number of students who fulfill these conditions exceeds the capacity of the course, the time of the registration e-mail decides the order of their enrolment. 

Successful students will be enrolled in the course in the SIS by the FHS International Office.


To get access to the CET facilities during the first week of classes, the students need to ring the doorbell at the main entrance to the CET Center in Palackého 3, Praha 1, and wait to be let in by a buzzer.

INFORMATION FOR EXCHANGE STUDENTS:

Because the teaching period of CET courses begins early, these courses are available in spring semesters only for those exchange students who are spending a full academic year at Charles University. They can enroll in 2 CET courses per semester depending on the available capacity and are expected to select regular courses in addition to the CET (YBAC-coded) courses.
