unilateralních

Unilateralních is a grammatical form used in Czech as the genitive plural of the adjective unilateralní, which means relating to or performed by one side. In everyday and formal usage, unilateralních appears in phrases describing actions, measures, agreements or conditions that involve only one party or side. Examples include unilateralních opatření (unilateral measures) or unilateralních dohod (unilateral agreements). The form signals that the referenced noun is governed in the genitive plural, and it commonly appears in legal, political or medical contexts.

The base term unilateralní is borrowed from English unilateral, itself from Latin una (one) and latus (side). In Czech, the word is used in a range of disciplines to indicate single-sided or one-sided character, contrasting with bilateralní (bilateral) or multilateralní (multilateral).

In political science and international relations, unilateral actions describe steps taken by a state without requiring or seeking consent from other states. Such actions can encompass recognitions, sanctions, withdrawals, or policy changes implemented independently. International law debates often address the legality, legitimacy, and consequences of unilateral measures, weighing the benefits of prompt action against potential disruption to cooperation and norms of non-interference.

In medicine, unilateralní describes conditions affecting only one side of the body, such as unilateralní bolest (unilateral pain) or unilateralní sluchová ztráta (unilateral hearing loss). The term thus spans both social sciences and clinical usage, illustrating how a single-sided focus can apply across domains.
