The second decennium of the Munich Betrayal. Reflection of the year 1938 in Czechoslovakia 1948-1958 - formulation and development.
Nožička, Josef ; Čechurová, Jana (advisor) ; Mücke, Pavel (referee) ; Němeček, Jan (referee)
The dissertation explores the creation of a historical portrayal of the 1938 events in Czechoslovakia and the transformations of this portrayal in 1948-1958. In particular, it analyses the mechanism of its creation, its fundamental pillars, the most characteristic interpretation devices, motifs, and patterns, their changes and shifts in their priority; the materials examined include, primarily, specialist historiography publications and opinion journalism on political issues, and in selected cases also films, poetry, and fiction. Furthermore, the dissertation highlights the links between these transformations and the propaganda campaigns of the Cold War - the 'war of documents' and the campaign against bourgeois falsifiers of history. It searches for parallels between the Soviet and Czechoslovak historiography of this period, focusing on their mutual ties in their narrative about the Munich events of 1938 as well as on the gradual weakening of these ties in the mid 1950s.

Czechoslovak exil and holocaust. Arnošt Fišer, the member of czechoslovak State council in London and his help to Jews in occupied Europe
Láníček, Jan ; Němeček, Jan (referee)
Holocaust je právem považován za jednu z největších katastrof, které lidstvo ve dvacátém století zažilo. Během pouhých šesti let bylo systematicky vyvražděno téměř šest milionů civilních osob, jejichž jedinou vinou bylo, že z hlediska zvrácených rasových zákonů byly považovány za Židy, tedy za méněcenné. Během desetiletí následujících po válce se vžilo mylné klišé, že za války neexistoval židovský odboj. Židé se dle této teorie nebránili konečnému řešení a někteří autoři zašli až tak daleko, že chování Židů přirovnávali k "ovcím jdoucím na porážku." 1 Skutečnost byla jiná. Židovský odboj existoval a můžeme jej dle prostého klíče rozdělit na dvě skupiny, a to na vnitřní (domácí) a zahraniční. Prvním, mezi jehož vrcholy patřily heroická povstání varšavských či białystockých mučedníků, se zde zabývat nebudeme. Zaměříme se na druhou skupinu, a v ní převážně na činnost jediného židovského člena československé Státní rady v Londýně - exilového parlamentu - Ing. Arnošta Frischera. Zahraniční židovský odboj měl podobně jako nežidovský v podstatě dvě formy: vojenskou a politickou. Českoslovenští Židé tvořili velké procento v řadách československé zahraniční armády v Sovětském svazu, Velké Británii i na Blízkém východě.2 Z hlediska politického odboje můžeme taktéž zmínit více činovníků, hlásících se k židovským...

Kubík, Petr ; Rychlík, Jan (advisor) ; Němeček, Jan (referee) ; Ďurica, Milan (referee)
Slovak-ltalian relationsbips between 1939 and 1945 Diplomatic relations between the fírst Slovak Republic and the Kingdom oOtaly began developing after Apri1 11, 1939, when tbe ltalian govemment acknowledged the independence of Slovakia.

Cortese in March 1942. ln tbe years ]939 to 1943 tbe Slovak-ltalian relationships were very active and rapídly extended in many fields of diplomacy, business, culture, propaganda and sports. These activities are described in detail in several chapters. This period of contacts was very fruitful, but compilation of a cultural agreement was not fina1ized and the planned visits at tbe highest level never took place. Tbe above communication abruptly came to an end after the· ltalian miIitary and politica1 break down in summer of 1943. Slovak Republic tried to keep diplomatic contacts witb tbe ltalian Sodal Republic newly established in northem Italy by Mussoliní under German protectorate, but these relations could not be as íntensive as those in the ear1ier years. They functioned...

Hruška, Marek ; Horčička, Václav (advisor) ; Němeček, Jan (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with Czechoslovak-Soviet realtions and influence of czechoslovak ambassador in USSR Zdeněk Fierlinger had on their formation. Its aim is to properly describe the course of events between 1939 and 1945, which most affected the specific nature of diplomatic relations between Czechoslovakia and Soviet Union during the World War II and to evaulate how much Zdeněk Fierlinger intervened in these events. The secondary aim of the thesis is to characterize the diplomatic activity of Zdeněk Fierlinger, to verify or refute the common idea that he was a traitor of the state and finally to find out whether his political and diplomatic steps were motivated by the vision of personal gain or ideological causes.

Synthesis of substituted nitrogen heterocycles as potential antitubercular agents
Němeček, Jan ; Roh, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Vinšová, Jarmila (referee) ; Hampl, František (referee)
Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Candidate: Mgr. Jan Němeček Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. PharmDr. Jaroslav Roh, PhD Title of doctoral thesis: Synthesis of substituted nitrogen heterocycles as potential antitubercular agents Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the most common causes of death in the world. It is an infectious disease caused by Mycobactetrium tuberculosis (M.tb.). Worldwide, it is estimated that only in 2017 TB caused 1.6 million deaths and 10 million new cases of TB have appeared. TB is treatable and curable disease, but multidrug-resistant (MDR-TB) and extensively drug- resistant (XDR-TB) strains of TB have appeared and the treatment of these resistant strains of TB is very complicated. During the last several decades, only two new antitubercular drugs bedaquilin and delamanid have been introduced into the clinical practice. Thus the development of new antitubercular drug is still very important. In our group, we developed new antitubercular compounds based on 3,5- dinitrobenzylsulphanyl tetrazole and oxa(thia)diazole, whose efficient concentrations reached tens of nM against drug susceptible and drug-resistant strains of M. tb. In my work, I dealt with both structural types. At first, we prepared series of substituted 5-(3-...

Influence of 21st Century Technological Inventions on the Deprofessionalization of Journalism
Němeček, Jan ; Jirák, Jan (advisor) ; Končelík, Jakub (referee)
The objective of this thesis is to explain terms professionalization and deprofessionalization and their understanding in the context of journalism and technological advancements of the 21st century. The first section of the thesis shows theoretical ideas connected to the influence of new technology on journalists and includes definitions of basic terms, which are used in the thesis. The theoretical section also includes the basics from the history of journalism, which enable us to understand the context of this issue. The research section offers the analysis of how amateur footage is used by two TV stations, Česká televize and Prima television. By using a quantitative content analysis and a standardized survey, the thesis analyses individual types and sources of amateur footage, which are used in both TV stations. The methodological section is there to help us understand the realization of the research. The section includes a part where research questions are asked and the hypothesis is formulated. The conclusion then answers these questions and summarizes the knowledge gained from the research.

Woman and War: Czechoslovak Women serving during the Second World War in the British Auxiliary Services ATS. and WAAF
Stegurová, Karolína ; Čechurová, Jana (advisor) ; Stehlík, Eduard (referee) ; Němeček, Jan (referee)
The dissertation thesis describes and analyses military service of Czechoslovak women in British army namely in ATS (Auxiliary Territorial Service) and WAAF (Women's Auxiliary Air Force) units. First Czechoslovak women joined British armed forces in mid 1941 and served directly on the British soil in the Army and Airforce bases. Other Czechoslovak women joined ATS and WAAF in the Middle East campaing since 1943. During the WWII more than two hundreds Czechoslovak citizens served in the auxillary units. The thesis describes the course of WAAF/ATS training, working set up and everyday life in the military with all pros and cons linked. The text further deals with the approach of the Czechoslovak exile institutions e.g. National Defence ministry, towards Czechoslovak women serving in the foreign army. One of the main topics is finding answer to question why Czechoslovakian women could serve only in the army of the allied state and if there were ever thoughts or plans for creation of similar unit directly with Czechoslovak foreign units. This is being considered in the broader context of British environment and war policy. In order to achieve understanding of the Czechoslovak women situation the text further focuses on reasons behind creation/reinstating of women auxiliary units. The text describes...
