Agricultural party in the years 1920-1921
Čapek, Jan ; Kvaček, Robert (advisor) ; Rychlík, Jan (referee)
Tato rigorózní práce se zabývá dějinami agrární strany v pro ní přelomovém období let 1920 - 1921. K výběru daného tématu mě motivoval zájem o československé dějiny meziválečného období a to především o dobu první poloviny dvacátých let, v níž po do značné míry zlomovém roku 1920 docházelo ke konsolidaci nového státu a dobudovávání charakteru a tvářnosti jeho vnitropolitického života, na jehož scéně se nezřídka zračí motivy ne nepodobné některým aspektům našeho současného dění. A právě v tomto období patří k nejzajímavějším stránkám tehdejší historie problematika agrárního politického hnutí. To totiž představuje zdánlivý paradox a jakousi anomálii meziválečné periody československých dějin, totiž v tom, že v průmyslově vyspělém a sociální aspekty života společnosti dosti silně akcentujícím Československu, hrála roli hegemona vnitřní politiky státu typicky stavovská a na zemědělské výrobce orientovaná agrární strana. K lákavosti tohoto tématu přispěl i zájem o osobnost Antonína Švehly, která je příkladem mimořádného vlivu jedince na formování nejen jedné politické strany, ale i celého vnitropolitického života státu. Práce se pokouší přispět k poznání uvedených dvou let v dějinách agrární strany a k postižení jejich přelomového charakteru. Byl to totiž právě rok 1920, respektive jeho první polovina, v níž...

Černá, Zuzana ; Kvaček, Robert (advisor) ; Čechurová, Jana (referee)
This rigorous thesis deals with the issue of political and diplomatical relationship between Czechoslovakia and Italy during 3 years from the March on Rome in 1922, by which Mussolini's National Fascist Party came to power in Italy until the Locarno Conference in 1925. The aim is to analyse the factors influencing relations between these two countries in the respective period. My work does not focus on bilateral associations solely, relations between the two countries are to be scrutinized within the frame of broader contingencies of the development in Europe in the twenties of the 201 h century, primarily under the angle of the active politics of both countries Czechoslovakia and Italy in the Central-European space. I have been looking for common and contradictive phenomenons ofboth nations on the background of the European events of that time.

This thesis deals with the development and activities of compatriot organizations of Czechs and Slovaks in the 20th century that were associated in the Union of clubs of Czechs and Slovaks in Switzerland. The first clubs, which did not last long, were established in the 1860s. The origins of more stable organizations date back to the beginning of the twentieth century, when clubs such as Czechoslovak Beseda Slovan in Geneva and Czechoslovak Beseda Svatopluk Čech in Zurich were established. These organizations expanded after the big emigrant wave caused by the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia. This period between the years 1968 and 1990 is the main objective of the following research. The thesis is divided into four chapters. The first one introduces some basic notions needed for the thesis and puts the existence of compatriot clubs in Switzerland in a broader context.

A post-war policy ofthe Czechoslovak Communist Party from 1945-1946 (from the Košický programme to the parliamentary election in 1946)
Duchoslav, Petr ; Kvaček, Robert (advisor) ; Rychlík, Jan (referee)
This work, in detail, deals with the post-war policy ofthe Czechoslovak communist party in 1945-1946. It is defined on one side by the restoration ofthe party and on the other side by the parliamentary election in 1946. The parliamentary election in 1946 ended the first phase of the party' s tactics, whose aim was to infiltrate the state mechanism and, at the same time, the election built optimal conditions for the party to finally eliminate its political enemies and seize absolute power. I have deliberately chosen this demarcation because it takes a key place in the development of the party' s political tactics, and not a period ending in astate coup ď etat in 1948. This approach would have been possible but it might have ended up growing into a simple description in which all the important and relevant matters of the party' s programme and political strategy were left out. The very core ofthis work is made of a post-war policy analysis of The Czechoslovak Communist Party, its historical development in an overall domestic and intemational context. It particularly focuses on the following crucial issues: 1. a post-war restoration of the party; 2. The party's policy in a period ofThe Provisional National Assembly (TPNA); 3. The 8th convention ofThe Czechoslovak Communist Party; 4. The May 1946 election. This...
