Anotace

Kurz se zabývá uspořádáním světového prostoru v období po 2.světové válce, zejména v těch částech světa, kde neexistují plně suverénní a funkční státy, státy se zpochybněnou teritoriální suverenitou a post-moderní státy, kde není suverenita založena na absolutní kontrole teritoria. Cílem kurzu je poskytnout studentům znalosti geografických kritérií státu či funkcí státu, pozitivní a negativní suverenity, mezinárodního uznání či eroze suverenity.

Absolvent kurzu by měl být schopen porozumět skutečné podobě mapy světa a geopolitickým faktorům, které na její tvorbu mají vliv.
