Geopolics in Development of Civilizational Theory: in Search for Peace
Abstract
In the article the author explores the manifestation of geopolitics in the civilizational theories, how this part of political science has an impact on the interaction of peoples and nations in terms of civilizations' development. It is likelihood, that the tendency of justification of the peaceful alternatives is developing in geopolitics to resolve the contentious issues. The present situation changes the assessment of both: the fundamental basis of this science and its future perspective. Probably the relevant fields of knowledge such as history, religious studies, philosophy will be under the influence of those peacekeeping trends, too.
