Abstract

Predstavljena je Dobrudža, geografska regija v jugovzhodnem delu Evrope, ki ima pomembne vojaškogeografske, geostrateške in geopolitične značilnosti. Določajo jih bližina kriznih žarišč, občasna mednacionalna trenja na širšem območju Podonavja, zgodovinska dediščina in geoprometna pomembnost. V prispevku so predstavljene splošne in fizične geografske danosti območja. Prikazan je razvoj prostorskih struktur, ki odločilno vplivajo na geoprometni položaj regije. Osrednji del prispevka predstavlja Dobrudžo kot bojišče operativnih razsežnosti in udeležbo Slovencev v bojih ter operacijah prve svetovne vojne na vzhodnem in jugovzhodnem bojevališču. Nakazane so nekatere sodobne geopolitične in geostrateške značilnosti območja. Zadnji del prispevka opozarja na vojaškogeografsko razsežnost in pomen Dobrudže zaradi bližine kriznih žarišč in nestabilnosti obrobja Črnega morja. We are presenting Dobrogea, a geographical region in south-eastern part of Europe with important military geographical, geostrategic and geopolitical characteristics. These are determined by the proximity of crisis areas, occasional international frictions in the wider Danube Basin, historical heritage and geostrategic importance. The article presents general and physical geographic resources of the area. It illuminates the development of spatial structures which decisively impact the geo- traffic situation of the region. The main part of the article presents Dobrogea as a battlefield with operational dimensions, and the participation of Slovenians in World War I battles and operations in eastern and south-eastern battlefields. It points to some of the contemporary geopolitical and geostrategic characteristics of the region. The final part of the article, however, brings attention to the military geographical dimension and the importance of Dobrogea due to the proximity of crisis areas and instabilities of the Black Sea fringe.
