The study is devoted to Stefanik's activities in the period 1909-1914. His scientific missions, especially the mission to Ecuador are its centre of gravity. The author depicts them mainly in the light of the French archives. The author analyses the circumstances in which it arose and its results more than the actual course of the mission. He places the mission in the wider context of international relations before the First World War. The majority of Stefanik's planned projects did not succeed for various reasons. The author does not omit the presentation of Stefanik's activity by historians

In this article, the author attempts to clarify three aspects of Stefanik's visit to Japan on the basis of little known Japanese materials: 1) The Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs received a summary of M.R. Stefanik's life and career in English as official information and had it translated into Japanese. 2) In the Diplomatic Archive of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Tokyo, we found a written record in Japanese of Stefanik's visit to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on 15 October 1918. In this document with the title 'Matter: Meeting of the representative of the minister Shidehara with General Stefanik', Stefanik still emphasizes the German threat as an argument for escalation of the Japanese expedition in Siberia, which would enable the Czechoslovak Legions to return home from Siberia sooner. 3) A group including M. Janin and M.R. Stefanik spent four days in the city of Kyoto (9-12 November 1918). Their most noteworthy activity was a visit to the important Japanese businessman Kacutaro Inabata, which was reported in detail in the regional daily.
