A contenção da Rússia: geopolítica, estaticídio e astropolítica / The Containment of Russia: geopolitics, statecide and astropolitics

Sousa, Danilo Rogerio de 05 August 2019 (has links)
A ideia central desta tese é discutir o fenômeno da contenção russa a partir de três frentes dimensionais: a expansão territorial da OTAN, o estaticídio dos aliados russos e a Astropolítica, bem como a pertinência ou não da teoria do Neoeurasianismo nesse processo. A abordagem teórica girou em torno das teorias e conceitos da geopolítica clássica bem como das abordagens realistas das relações internacionais, no intuito de ressaltar a pertinência do fator geográfico no fenômeno em questão. A representação cartográfica, sobretudo em sua vertente temática, fez-se presente por meio de uma série de mapas, boa parte confeccionados pelo autor. No tocante à gama conceitual, foram utilizados sobretudo os conceitos de checkerboard e shatterbelt, de Phil Kelly, bem como o modelo de Robert Jervis. Da mesma forma, a noção de equilíbrio de poder norteou toda a busca deste estudo. Ademais, foram salientadas as críticas de importantes realistas acadêmicos (Henry Kissinger, John Mearsheimer e Stephen Walt) e sublinhou-se, também, a primazia do espaço geográfico na determinação dos fenômenos estudados. Emergiu desta análise um novo conceito, o do Estaticídio, produto direto da relação entre a contenção russa e a formação de checkerboars geopolíticos, bem como o estabelecimento de shatterbelts. A estrutura desta tese está dividida em seis capítulos, a saber: Introdução Metodológica, 1) a Geopolítica como ciência, 2) os problemas territoriais da Rússia, 3) a expansão da OTAN rumo a fronteira russa, 4) o Estaticídio, intervenção e desordem mundial, 5) a Astropolítica e 6) Neoeurasianismo como Ideia Russa. O esforço intelectual deste estudo procurou ressaltar a importância do fenômeno da contenção russa bem como a urgência da retomada da ideia de equilíbrio de poder como moderador do acirramento geopolítico do momento histórico no qual se encontra a política internacional, sempre colocando ênfase na importância da Geografia e da Geopolítica no entendimento dessa questão. / The central idea of this thesis is to discuss the phenomenon of Russian containment from three-dimensional fronts: the territorial expansion of NATO, the statecide of Russian allies and Astropolitics, as well as the relevance or not of the theory of Neo-Eurasianism in this process. The theoretical approach revolved around the theories and concepts of classical geopolitics as well as realistic approaches to international relations, in order to highlight the relevance of the geographical factor in the phenomenon in question. The cartographic representation, especially in its thematic aspect, was present through a series of maps, most of them made by the author. Regarding the conceptual range, the concepts of checkerboard and shatterbelt, by Phil Kelly, as well as the Robert Jervis model were used. In the same way, the notion of balance of power guided the entire search for this study. In addition, the critiques of important academic realists (Henry Kissinger, John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt) were emphasized and the primacy of geographic space in determining the phenomena studied was highlighted. A new concept emerged from this analysis, the Statecide, a direct product of the relationship between Russian containment and the formation of geopolitical checkerboars, as well as the establishment of shatterbelt. The structure of this thesis is divided into six chapters, namely: Methodological Introduction, 1) Geopolitics as a science, 2) Russia\'s territorial problems, 3) NATO\'s expansion towards the Russian border, 4) Statecide, intervention and world disorder, 5) Astropolitics and 6) Neo-Eurasianism as a Russian idea. The intellectual effort of this study sought to highlight the importance of the phenomenon of Russian containment as well as the urgency of resuming the idea of balance of power as moderator of the geopolitical escalation of the historical moment in which international politics finds itself, always emphasizing the importance of Geography and Geopolitics in understanding this issue.

Giannetti, Giuliano January 2009 (has links)
Diploma thesis "Astropolitics" analyses of the evolution of the geopolitical a strategic thought from the classical geopolitical school of Mackinder to the Astropolitik, which is the brainchild of E.Dolman. This essay is focused mainly on space and on the military doctrines and strategies that were applied to it from Cold war to the present. The last capitol analyses the potential of the environment in the present and in the imminent future. A last thought will be dedicated to the cyberspace. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Spacepower and space warfare : the continuation of terran politics by other means

Bowen, Bleddyn Endaf January 2015 (has links)
Space technologies and the tools of space warfare are proliferating across Earth. The use of spacepower in conflict necessitates strategic thinking. Strategic theory can guide and improve strategic thought about outer space. Drawing on strategic theory, this thesis develops a spacepower theory in the next step of a collective theory-making effort about warfare in the Space Age. This spacepower theory is based on seven distinct, complementary, and interacting propositions that aim to shift the debate of spacepower away from space weaponisation and the Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA), and towards a more holistic view of the vast possibilities granted by spacepower. This spacepower theory proposes that space warfare only has meaning in so far it works towards the command of space; that the command of space is about manipulating celestial lines of communication; that spacepower in Earth orbit is a place to conduct strategic manoeuvres to influence the wider war and grand strategic goals; and that the command of space can have direct meaning for battlefield success through its dispersing effects. The theory is based on three major strategic analogies from terrestrial strategic theory and experience. First, space warfare is a continuation of terrestrial politics. Second, space is like the sea in its most basic concepts. Third, Earth orbit is like a coastal region. The contributions of this work are a theory that assists the individual’s education on warfare in the Space Age that takes emphasis away from space-based weaponry and the RMA, and a treatise that demonstrates and encourages a pedagogical method of analysis in strategic studies. This has tentative implications for wider discussions of astropolitics in International Relations (IR) as well. IR will continue in its usefulness in the cosmos, while Terran IR today must account for the realities of the Space Age.

"Globální bezpečnost kosmických aktivit a soupeření mezi USA - Čínou - Ruskem" / "Global Space Security and the U.S. - China - Russia Rivalry."

Robinson, Jana January 2016 (has links)
UNIVERZITA KARLOVA V PRAZE FAKULTA SOCIÁLNÍCH VĚD INSTITUT POLITOLOGICKÝCH STUDIÍ ABSTRACT OF DOCTORAL THESIS GLOBAL SPACE SECURITY AND THE U.S. - CHINA - RUSSIA RIVALRY 2016 JANA ROBINSON 2 ABSTRACT This study concentrates on whether the spacepower projection strategies of China and Russia, as communicated through their actions, key initiatives and public diplomacy positions, will, in the near future, undermine or advance global efforts to preserve the stability of the space environment and sustainability of outer space activities. In order to arrive at key findings, the analysis presented in this study is guided by two theories, the Astropolitik, a well-established spacepower theory of Everett C. Dolman, and the "preventive arms control in space" theory of Max Mutschler. It was concluded that arms control in space will not advance space security and prevent systemic destabilization of the space domain, and formal top-down arms control does not effectively restrain counterspace activities1 . It was likewise concluded that there exists a high probability (i.e. possibly greater than 75%) of near-term space 'incident' among the U.S., Russia and China. To prevent an escalatory spiral leading to conflict in space, the U.S. should continue to engage China and Russia (including in multilateral venues) in an...
