Abstract (English):
The monograph introduces readers not just into a complex, but into an exceptionally complicated history of international communication through a very simple and understandable entrance, which is torn off by the science of onomastics, which studies proper names. This knowledge, concerning the names of those personalities who have left their mark in the history of international relations, becomes a kind of anthroponymic guide to international relations. Toponymy, which explains the names of geographical objects, is the part of geopolitics that will help to identify the edges of agreement and conflict. Since not only things, phenomena, processes have their own names, but also symbols, including those that permeate the space of international interaction, the state of the world, its stability and security may depend on the accuracy of the use of such names. It is addressed to specialists in the field of geopolitics, history, sociology, and cultural studies. A narrative about the history and peculiarities of modern international relations, in which the main facts are taken from the world of proper names, will be interesting to a wide range of readers.
