Germans at the Special People's Court in Brno: the image of German in regional newspapers from Brno between 1945 and 1947
Pechová, Iva ; Himl, Pavel (advisor) ; Schreiberová, Zuzana (referee)
THE ABSTRACT I was dealing with the image of the German in the way how it had been constructed in the articles in regional newspapers from Brno. I was interested about how, in which consequences and with which metaphors or language instruments had been this image of German created. I was working with the articles about Special People's Court in Brno and about only the German defendants. There were two groups of these defendants. The first was created by people who had been Germans also before the World War II. There were also Germans who had accepted the German Nationality during the World War II. I was interested in both groups. I chose the newspapers from the period which starts with the end of the World War II and ends with the end of July 1947 - that is also the end of the special People's Courts established by the President's Decree Nr.16/1945 Sb. Then I was trying to find the consequences between the image of the German in regional newspapers from Brno and the image of German which had been constructed in the Political Speeches of Edvard Beneš, Prokop Drtina and Ivan Herben. I was also trying to answer the question what was the role of Special Public's Courts in the Czech- German equalization and if it is possible that these Courts were one of the culmination of these equalization.

"Kuličkáři a Zetoráci"
Pechová, Iva ; Vaněk, Miroslav (advisor) ; Hlaváček, Jiří (referee)
The Abstract The main topic of this thesis is the Zetor, an industrial factory in Brno. This factory is a part of Czech (Czechoslovak) industrial history for a long time. His role was also very important in Brno. The first topic was the history of Zetor from its beginning to present years. I was also interested how the changes in November 1989 were visible in Zetor and what were their impact on the factory itself and its staff. I was studying the years between 1989 and 1992 in detail, too. The industrial titan from Brno went through a several economic depressions in these years. What were the reasons of this depressions and their impact on factory's working class? Zetor was a kind of a "family firm" for most of them. They were working here for years, their ancestors were working here too, they met here their husbands, wifes or lifelong friends. A lot of them were impressionable to the changes not only because of their proffesional but also from their personal perspective. And it is a true, that the Zetor is a really good example of positives or negatives of the post revolution time in Czech industry and tens of thousands members of the working proffesion. Key words: industrial factories, workers, the "velvet" revolution, economic depression, privatization
