aic Studies as a Possible Sponsor of International
Relations
Mihály Dobrovits
BHKKA (Center for Security and Defense Studies), Hungary
In our paper we intend to continue a long lasting discussion that hawe been
initiated by Jacues Legrand (in Vladivostok) and continued by Oliver Corff
(in Dunajská Streda) on the possible role of Altaic Studies as a sponsor of
International Relations.
Our standpoint is that IR began its discussions on the area covered by Aétaic
Studies without consulting our academic activities and use a lot of misleading
conceptions regarding this field. To avoid total misunderstanding, Altaic Studies
should enter the academic discussions of International Relations and make clear
what was the reality behind their misunderstood conceptions.
Keywords: Clan politics, sultanic regimes, tribalism, nation building.
