Ukrainian Community in Prague and Central Bohemia after 1991
Trávníčková, Klára ; Kopeček Šustrová, Radka (advisor) ; Spurný, Matěj (referee)
The bachelor thesis focuses on the formation and organisation of community life, non-institutional activities, and identity of the Ukrainian minority in Prague and Central Bohemia from the 1990s (1991) to 2004. The start of the chosen time period is defined by the emergence of an independent Ukrainian state and the associated freedom to travel to other European countries for work due to the collapse of the Soviet Union. On its other end stands the Orange Revolution - the first major polarising political conflict of the Ukrainian Republic, which may also have impacted the community in the Czech Republic and its activities. The author aims to apply the methodology of transnational migration and diaspora studies to the selected source base (mainly from the production of associations of the Ukrainian national minority in the Czech Republic). The central part of the thesis entails a detailed analysis of two distinctive outputs of the compatriot associations - the magazine Porohy and the documentary film Easy Answer - and the labelling of its transnational and/or diasporic aspects. The thesis also provides insight into the journey taken by the Ukrainian national minority in the Czech Republic from the fall of state socialism to 2004.

Finsterschott, Theo ; Spurný, Matěj (advisor) ; Kopeček Šustrová, Radka (referee)
The primary focus of the thesis "Sadism and Masochism in Medicalization and Culture During the Last Third of the Long 19th Century in the Czech and European Context" is, firstly, to examine the distinctive notions of sadism and masochism in the works of Austro-German psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing (1840-1903); secondly, to analyze how these two perversions came into being and took shape in the field of medicine, in literature and in society itself; and, thirdly, to explore how these concepts were then received and reinterpreted - namely in the study "Culilinctus et fellatio" by Czech forensic physician Václav Bělehradský (1844- 1896), which appeared in the Časopis lékařů českých journal and where the concepts of neronism and encolpism, counterparts to sadism and masochism, were first introduced. The thesis further explores the continuities and, more importantly, the discontinuities in sadism and masochism, starting with concepts prior to Krafft-Ebing's distinctions, focusing on their genesis as complementary perversions, and ending with their significance for the 20th century and the present day. The text is devised as an analysis of the position of erotic desire and practice, namely in their role as primary constituents of sadism, masochism and other related concepts; it is endogenous desire,...

Moravanský, Matěj ; Spurný, Matěj (advisor) ; Šustrová, Radka (referee)
The bachelor thesis aims to describe the development of the Czech child care system in the turbulent period between 1938 and 1948. The research is based on archival probes into three particular institutions, which provided care of young people. At the regional level, research focuses on District Youth Care (Okresní péče o mládež) in Benešov and Neveklov, at the national level, the Czech Land Youth Care Center (Zemské ústředí péče o mládež v Čechách). The thesis asks questions about continuities and discontinuities across three periods, which are fundamentally different in many aspects, but there are surprising similarities in the field of children care. Through the observation of personnel continuities, the practice of biopolitics or long-term process of centralization and nationalization of child care system, we can uncover not only the development of the care system but also changes in the world of thoughts of the inhabitants of Czech lands during the Second Czechoslovak Republic, the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia and the Third Republic.

Šustrová, Radka ; Čechurová, Jana (advisor) ; Kučera, Jaroslav (referee) ; Kuklík, Jan (referee)
Social policy belonged to the key areas of the construction of the Nazi rule in Germany and in the occupied territories in Central and Western Europe. This work addresses the public social policy in the context of the change of ideology in the second Czech-Slovak Republic and in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. The goal of the public social policy was to aid stabilization and securing peace and order in the occupied territory. Consequently, the policy was an object of great interest not only on the part of the Protectorate (Czech) elite but also of the representatives of the occupation (German) power. The first chapter sketches the social policy development in the inter-war period and points to the fundamental problems and questions that the political representatives of the time were unable to address satisfactorily. The Great Depression and growing social inequalities were the primary causes of the crisis of liberal democracy and the onset of radical movements. The conclusion of the Munich Pact boosted the anti-liberal atmosphere in the Bohemian lands and brought a change of the state ideology paradigm consisting in the shift from the construction of a liberal democratic state to the building of "national communality". The second chapter depicts this process from the perspective of the...
