The Import and Distribution of Gramophone Records under the Normalization in Socialist Czechoslovakia
Andrs, Jiří ; Vojtěchovský, Ondřej (advisor) ; Michela, Miroslav (referee)
This work engages in the import and distribution of the audio storages, concretely the gramophone records to Czechoslovakia. A gramophone record - differently to other audio storages like reel-to-reel tape records or later the cassettes - was meanwhile also an artefact that personified an attractive exoticness of the western world and because of its format and graphical elaboration it represented a valuable object of popular culture. The work is based on the assumption that the development of Czechoslovak musical subcultures depended largely on the distribution of gramophone records. That is why author focuses his attention on the unofficial import of the LP records by private persons. The very limited state-controlled import of this product will be also partly taken in account. An important question within this work is the import of the west-made music from other socialist states. In many of those countries licenses of those LPs were released much more often than in CSSR. Compared to the original western LPs it was easier for Czechoslovakian citizens to reach them - because of better possibilities to travel to socialist countries and yet because of a relatively low prices of eastern presses. Student also tries to revise the common notion (typical for both academic and non-academic sphere)...

Demographic changes in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 90s of the last century. Forced migration and its spatial impacts
Žíla, Ondřej ; Pelikán, Jan (advisor) ; Vojtěchovský, Ondřej (referee)
Stěžejní pozornost této práce, zabývající se demografickými proměnami v prostoru Bosny a Hercegoviny, je zaměřena na porovnání etno-demografické situace na počátku devadesátých let 20. století se stavem v zemi po ukončení válečného konfliktu. Současná etnická a demografická situace byla (a nadále zůstává) zásadně ovlivněna procesem tzv. nucených migrací. Původně jsem svou práci koncipoval v naivním předpokladu, že může být založena pouze na sekundární literatuře a pramenné bázi v podobě veškerých dostupných dílčích statistických materiálů. Po čase jsem si ale uvědomil, že pokud má mít práce určitou vypovídající hodnotu, musí být doplněna ještě o třetí zdroj informací, čímž by měly být výsledky terénních šetření provedených v prostoru Bosny a Hercegoviny.l Ty jsem postavil do srovnání s výsledky analýzy primárních a sekundárních zdrojů. Vznikla tak práce, která není klasickou historickou studií. Naopak je, i vzhledem k mému studijnímu oboru HistorieGeografie, interdisciplinárního charakteru, usilující o sledování proměn jednotlivých procesů v prostoru a čase, řešená historickými metodami i formami výzkumu, jež využívá současná socioekonomická geografie. Éra devadesátých let 20. století je dobou, za kterou se řada historiků nerada pouští, neboť se jedná již spíše o "přítomnost",2 což přináší četná rizika...

Forming of the Yugoslavian cominform emigration in Czechoslovakia
Vojtěchovský, Ondřej ; Pelikán, Jan (advisor) ; Tejchman, Miroslav (referee)
Politické události roku 1948, které poznamenaly podobu evropského kontinentu na čtyřicet let, byly zvláště osudné pro dvě v lecčem podobné a přitom tolik rozdílné země - Československo a Jugoslávii. Únorový převrat v Československu byl jedním z mezníků v konečné fázi utváření sovětského bloku. Roztržka mezi Stalinem a Titem, která vyvrcholila červnovou rezolucí Informačního byra komunistických stran, byla pak impulsem k jeho přeměně v monolitní celek, kde se suverenita jednotlivých států podřizovala linii určované Moskvou. Také pojem "lidová demokracie", označující vnitropolitické uspořádání zemí v sovětské zájmové sféře, začal měnit svůj obsah. Zavržena byla teorie o vlastních cestách k socialismu, respektující specifika té které země a vyhýbající se užití násilných prostředků. Místo toho začal být uplatňován jediný známý model, totiž sovětský. Systém formální demokracie, v jejíž reálné náplni na jedné straně stálo relativně svobodné Československo a na druhé komunisty nepokrytě ovládaná Jugoslávie, ztratil nyní pro Sověty opodstatnění.
