Guilt, Purification, Forgiveness
Slezáková, Veronika ; Keřkovský, Pavel (advisor) ; Halama, Jindřich (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the conceptions of Guilt, Purification and Forgiveness. Based on the study of the writings of Karl Jaspers, Božena Komárková, Martin Buber and Helmut Weber, the thesis comes to an understanding of the issues of guilt, forgiveness and purification in both philosophical and theological terms. Furthermore, this work introduces other issues that relate to the chosen topic, for example, the concepts of Repentance, Penance and Conversion. Thanks to the acquired findings, I want to come to an understanding of the concept of guilt in Bernhard Schlink's novel The Reader. This thesis is concerned with Schlink's comprehension of guilt as well as with the foundation for reconciliation with guilt that Schlink outlines. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Religious Hatred - Case of Northern Ireland
Nedbalová, Dagmar ; Keřkovský, Pavel (advisor) ; Halama, Jindřich (referee)
Tato bakalářská práce se týká problematiky nesnášenlivosti v Severním Irsku, jež bývá vykreslována jako konflikt příslušníků odlišných křesťanských denominací. Jejím cílem je dopátrat se příčin konfliktu, poukázat na politické, ekonomické, sociální a náboženské faktory, které stojí za současnou nedůvěrou a násilím v regionu, charakterizovat náboženskou nesnášenlivost jako problém, který nespočívá "pouze" ve věroučných různicích, a navrhnout několik myšlenek, jež by mohly přispět k nalezení cesty ke smíření. Práce popisuje jednotlivé fenomény vzešlé z historického vývoje, které dodnes "vyživují" severoirský spor, nastiňuje soudobé trendy v životě severoirské protestantské a katolické komunity, zamýšlí se nad vlivem nábožensko-politické propagandy v soudobé lidové kultuře, českému čtenáři zkouší situaci přiblížit zamyšlením se nad paralelou v jeho vlastních dějinách a pokouší se zamyslet nad možností budoucí ekumenické spolupráce. Vzhledem ktomu,že svýjimkou "obecných"dějin nejsou českojazyčné zdroje příliš bohaté, tato práce si klade za cíl nastínit komplexnost severoirského konfliktu a také doporučit zahraniční literaturu, jež se touto problematikou podrobněji zabývá.

Jonová, Kateřina ; Halama, Jindřich (advisor) ; Keřkovský, Pavel (referee)
I've chosen Animals as a tool used by mankind as a topic for my thesis. The reason to choose this topic is my closeness to it because of my education in fields of ecology and ethics. I presume, that it would be interesting to connect gained knowledge from ecology and my current study of bioethics. The aim of my thesis is to find out, discover, explain and prove, whether and to what measure is it justified to use animals in favor of a human. I would like to try to describe most important aspects of this topic in my thesis. I'd try to answer to this aimed goal through collected information from worldwide and local authors. My thesis will be structured in three main parts. First part will be aimed on animal rights, in a second part, there will be desribed in which ways we use animals and in a third part there are stated ethical and theological aspects of this problem.

Telínová, Gabriela ; Halama, Jindřich (advisor) ; Bartoň, Daniel (referee)
The thesis deals with the prostitution and its casual links to both moral and legislation matters. In this context, it focuses on recent efforts to legalize prostitution in the Czech Republic. The thesis starts with a brief treatise concerning an image of the prostitution as a phenomena, including a few possible reasons for getting involved in it. Thereafter, the thesis addresses a human sexuality and standards, which, through their application in practice, have an influence on our perception of this phenomena. This is also linked to the way we are proceeding to regulate prostitution, and why. The following chapter shows linkages to prostitution-related criminality, in which the majority of standards are broken. The point of this chapter lies in the fact that there is a real necessity for action, longed for by society, in order to regulate this field and to ensure both legal- and practice-wise protection to all threatened categories of people. This thesis also includes a chapter on current legal regulation of prostitution and its legalization in the Czech Republic. It covers various matters, e.g. how to take preventive measures against the crime in question; how to protect prostitutes, their clients or even a society; and how to comply with all these three parties' wishes in the most favourable...

From Luther to Lochman: The Shift in the Interpretation of the Ten Commandments
Peltanová, Anna ; Halama, Jindřich (advisor) ; Keřkovský, Pavel (referee)
My thesis focuses on the interpretation of the Ten Commandments. Mainly with the shift, which occurred between the interpretation of Martin Luther and one by Jan Milíč Lochman. The compared works are Luther's Treatise on Good Works and Lochman's Signposts to Freedom. To make the picture complete, I added quotations from other interpretations of the Ten Commandments. Each chapter deals with one commandment. At the beginning of a chapter there is a survey of Luther's ideas, followed by Lochman's ideas and a summary of the differences between the two interpretations. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the shift that occurred in protestant interpretations of the Ten Commandments in the past half millennium is large, or how big it is.

Ethics of Liberation in the Works of Enrique Dussel
Hlásek, Vít ; Halama, Jindřich (advisor) ; Jandejsek, Petr (referee)
The purpose of this thesis Ethics of Liberation in the Works of Enrique Dussel is to present and critically evaluate significant aspects of the ethics of liberation in the works of the Latin American author Enrique Dussel in connection with the historical circumstances of its origins and following development. Emphasis is laid upon the motif of community, which plays a vital role within Dussel's ethics sub pauperum lumine. Theological ethics of liberation with its methodological foundations is often considered to be problematic from the western perspective; in particular comprehension of eschatology, the reception of Marxist thoughts and its emphasis on social, economic and cultural context, is often misunderstood and rejected. The question this thesis poses is: Does the ethics of liberation with its social, economic, geopolitical and cultural transformation of contemporary global society belong as "obsolete fashion" on the "rubbish heap of history" or is it still relevant to today's society?
