The influence of Cyprus' accession to the European Union on a possible reunification of the island
Chábová, Tereza ; Váška, Jan (advisor) ; Najšlová, Lucia (referee)
This bachelor thesis examines the Cyprus' accession to the European Union and focuses on how this accession influenced a possible solution of the Cyprus question. The objective is to find an answer to the question how the accession influenced a possible reunification of the island, and what the significance of the European Union in the prospects on solving the Cyprus issue was. The thesis focuses on the development of the reunification process before the accession, on the Annan plan and on the following referendum, in which Greek Cypriots voted against the reunification of Cyprus. The thesis analyzes the development after the Cyprus' integration into the EU without the northern part of the island, where the European Union has been trying for many years to end the international isolation of the Turkish Cypriot community. This paper also analyzes the relations between Turkey and Cyprus, which significantly affect the European politics and the Cyprus issue itself. The thesis concludes that the Cyprus' accession set back the reunification process despite the efforts made by European Union to end the isolation of Turkish Cypriots, and to prepare the northern part of Cyprus for future integration into the EU. The fact that in 2016 Cyprus has again a good chance at uniting northern and southern part of the island...

Securitization of drought in the Czech Republic
Chábová, Tereza ; Rynda, Ivan (advisor) ; Karmazin, Aleš (referee)
This Master's thesis deals with the construction of the threat of drought in the Czech Republic (which can be perceived as a matter of environmental security) using the securitization theory introduced by the Copenhagen school. This theory describes securitization as an intersubjective process, in which a particular threat is constructed by securitizing actors as a matter of security. The goal of the thesis was to find answers to the following research questions: I set to find out if the threat of drought in the Czech Republic was successfully securitized in the last ten years, who is the securitizing actor of the threat and what or who is the referent object, or in other words, the object which is being threatened. To find out the answers to the research questions, I used a qualitative research method of single case study; I analysed relevant primary sources using discourse and content analysis. The analysis showed that the securitization of drought in the Czech Republic was successful during the last ten years, since all the three criteria for successful securitization were met; there was a security speech act present, the audience has accepted the existence of the threat and the propositions of emergency measures against the threat of drought have been made. Based on the analysis of the primary...

Greek Civil War: Greek Immigrants from Anatolia and Their Involvement in the Communist Insurgency (1946-1949)
Chábová, Tereza ; Aslan, Emil (advisor) ; Soukup, Jaromír (referee)
This Master's thesis deals with the individual's motivations for participation in the Communist insurgency during the Greek Civil War of 1946-1949. More specifically, the thesis aims to analyse the motivations of those who joined the Communist guerrillas and at the same time originated from the population which came as Greek Christian refugees in 1920s to Macedonia, Northern Greece. The Master's thesis introduces several theoretical concepts which try to explain individual's motivations for mobilization in insurgency generally, including the "grievance versus greed" theory, the social networks and collective identity approach as well as coercion approach. The theories are then applied to the empirical case of Greek-speaking Pontic refugees from Anatolia and their participation in the Greek Civil War. The thesis introduces the background and experiences of the researched ethnic group throughout the interwar period up until the Greek Civil War. The analysis of the particular incentives which were behind the Greek refugee's participation is supported by the qualitative research in the form of interviews with 21 witnesses, who fall into the researched group of families who originate from the Pontos region in Anatolia and have family experience of mobilization in Communist Insurgency of 1946 to 1949. The thesis...
