Geopolitical Summer School at FSV UK

Europe undergoes a period of great geopolitical shifts. With Brexit, Russian influence, rise of radical Islamism and secessionist tendencies in many parts of the continent, study of the European geopolitics returns back to a foremost prominence. Instability in a neighbouring region also further impacts the nature of the European politics. Understanding of the disintegration tendencies is the key skill that the contemporary and future policy-makers need to posses in order to navigate through the complex world of threats and opportunities that these changes in the international system bring. 

The Geopolitical Summer School at FSV UK has a highly interactive character, with a focus on the various geopolitical traditions. The module offers lectures, workshops and final student presentations. It also involves individual as well as group assignment.
