Security and Strategic Culture of USA, EU and CRBook review

It is the title of homonymous publication by Jan Eichler from the Institute of Foreign Relations. The author depicts basic characteristics of main features of security and strategic culture of present world. He tries to answer the following three questions: What are historical and political factors of security /strategical culture of respective actors, what are main features of their doctrinal documents, and their impacts on the development of global international relations in the early 21st century? He deduces that the participation of the CR in military interventions in third world countries could generate a risk of terrorist's attacks against not only members of armed forces abroad, but also installations in our state territory.

    15. Popperův pojem falzifikace. Britský filozof vědy Karl Popper (1902-1994) staví svou základní tezi na argumentu, že hromadění empirických dat, jakkoli exaktních, samo sobě nevede k vytvoření teorie. Žádná teorie nemá charakter absolutní pravdy a její správnost nelze dokázat, ale toliko vyvrátit. Experimentem nebo pozorováním správnost teorie nepotvrzujeme, ale testujeme její odolnost proti vyvrácení. Teorie, pokud má charakter vědeckého zobecnění nějakého jevu, musí být tedy vyvratitelná čili falzifikovatelná. Dostupné mj. na http://www.sisyfos.cz/sisyfos/zpravodaj/sis04_04.htm.
