Voraussetzungen / Organisatorisches: The course is designed for regular students and international exchange students from the social sciences and neighboring disciplines.
Inhalt: The destruction of the bipolar system of international relations as a result of the Soviet Union collapse gave a significant impetus to the geopolitical transformation of the post-Soviet space and international security system in general. However, the appearance of fifteen new independent states on the territory of former Soviet Union and seven countries which were part of the Soviet sphere of influence (former Yugoslavia) on the political map of the world was accompanied with a period of political turbulence. Therefore, one of the phenomena of the new regional security system was the emergence of self-proclaimed state entities that declared themselves as sovereign countries, but until now, for more than 30 years, they have not received full international recognition. Possessing the main formal features of the state and comprehensive support of "patron states", some of them are still continuing the movement for political recognition. This is a threat to the European security system and international community. Main purpose of the discipline is to make a complete picture of the "de facto states" with determination features of their genesis, evolution, modern specifications and forecasting of international recognition in the future.
