The paper is dedicated to the foreign policy programmes of the Czech political parties and movements in connection with the election to the Chamber of Deputies held in October 2021. The attention is paid to those political subjects that were represented in the lower chamber of the Parliament during the last term (2017-2021) as well as those with the potential to gain seats after the election.

The analysis results in a categorisation of the political actors based on their outlook on the international politics and global order. The basic categories are Atlanticism and sovereigntism.

The paper shows which subjects are in favour of progressive reshaping of the global order in line with its multipolarisation and democratisation on one hand, and those defending Western hegemonism on the other.
