Program Overview
The Master's program is aimed at training specialists in the field of research of socialist and post-socialist societies in the context of international relations. The modern system of international relations is developing under the influence of socialist and communist ideologies (in the countries of Southeast Asia, South America, etc.) and political practices that had and continue to have a huge impact on all spheres of human life in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Despite the collapse of the USSR and the world socialist system, leftist ideas play an important role in the life of modern society around the world. These processes need comprehensive scientific expertise within the framework of international scientific cooperation.
