Ethics Horizons at a Gymnazium
FEJTOVÁ, Blanka
The thesis deals with the state of interpersonal relationships, students' relations to humanities and science and ethical values in grammar school. The theoretical part deals with the principles of upbringing and education at grammar school and the definition of the concepts of ethical values. The practical part includes a system of evaluation of the interpretations of students' interviews with regard to the quality of interpersonal relationships and level of teaching, students' attitudes and relationships to the school subjects taught and ethical values. The quality of interpersonal relationships appears to be at a very good level in connection with the size of the gymnasium of around 400 students. The level of teaching meets the expectations of the students and the requirements for admission to universities and thus legitimises the existence of a generally focused grammar school. The students accept with slight resentment the disbalance in favour of science while subjects of humanities are neglected, and they show the practice of basic ethical values.

Moral obligation as sociological fact and theoretical problem: a debate between Bergson and Kant
Palmea, King Reinier ; Ottmann, François (advisor) ; Serban, Claudia (referee)
This work aims to explicate the difference between Bergson and Kant's concept of obligation in light of Bergson's critique of Kant in his book Les Deux Sources de la Morale et Religion (The Two Sources of Morality and Religion). From what perspective does this critique and reading of Kant originate? I argue that it lies in their different approaches to morality. On one hand, Bergson views moral obligation as a sociological and anthropological fact. He applies an existential approach in his moral theory because the anthropological fact he engages with, namely the phenomenon of barbarism during the First World War, provides the framework for his typology of closed and open morality, and his critique of deontology. On the other hand, Kant considers morality as a theoretical problem; morality is a conceptual engagement-an investigation of the concepts that morality presupposes. Their divergent approaches underpin (1) the difference in their conception of freedom in relation to morality and (2) their conception of mysticism as a possible ground for morality. Keywords: obligation, reason, pressure, aspiration, morality, freedom, autonomy, moral creativity, mysticism

Freedom and Public Health in a Pandemic
Tomášková, Jana ; Guasti, Petra (advisor) ; Franěk, Jakub (referee)
Bakalářská práce se věnuje kalibraci demokratických svobod a jejich instrumentalizaci v době pandemického vládnutí. Problematika je demonstrována na příkladu České republiky nacházející se v nouzovém stavu a nahlížena skrze korektivní úlohu ÚS ČR, který je garantem proporcionálního vyvažování ochrany veřejného zdraví a rovněž ochrany demokratických svobod. Panující tenze bezesporu testuje právní stát i funkčnost systému brzd a protiváh, jehož existence přímo chrání povahu demokratičnosti zřízení. Ukazuje se, že i v nouzovém stavu existuje oblast občanských práv a svobod, jejíž faktické narušení zůstává předmětem legitimního sporu mezi exekutivou a judikativou.

Title : MINOR LIBERTY AND MAJOR LIBERTY: For a decolonial reading of the philosophical genesis in Colombia. Abstract : This research endeavours to restore the philosophical foundations of freedom at work in the protectorate of Indians and the praxis of the first bishop of Popayan Juan del Valle as a primordial moment of philosophical activity in Colombia, and then to show its contradictions not only as regards its provisions but as regards the freedom and tradition properly indigenous. We call this major freedom after the major right and duty of the Misak people. Key-words : freedom, Major/Minor, Relationnality/Substantiality, Nupirau, Pishi, Protectorate of Indians, Things-concepts, Snail, Concretion/Abstraction.

Berlin's Positive Freedom in T. H. Green's Thought
Hulvertová, Anna ; Halamka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Franěk, Jakub (referee)
Tato bakalářská práce je zaměřena na dva politické filozofy, kteří významným způsobem rozvinuli koncept pozitivní svobody. Isaiah Berlin je asi nejznámějším autorem rozdělujícím svobodu na pozitivní a negativní. T. H. Green, i když v dnešní době, a hlavně českém prostředí tolik známý není, byl ve své době považován za transformátora celého liberálního směru a myšlení o svobodě právě díky interpretaci pozitivní svobody. V této práci se proto snažím zjistit, zda pozitivní svoboda definovaná I. Berlinem odpovídá tomu, jak o ni ve svých dílech hovořil T. H. Green. Pozitivní svoboda je velice významný koncept v politické filozofii, stejně tak mají svůj zásadní význam oba autoři. Jejich komparace proto přináší na koncept pozitivní svobody nový pohled. Detailnější analýza jednotlivých autorů a následná komparace jejich myšlení o pozitivní svobodě ukazuje na výrazné odlišnosti mezi jejich pojetím pozitivní svobody, a tím pádem i na existenci možnosti odlišného uchopení tohoto pojmu, než je pouze obecně nejvíce známá Berlinova definice.

A missed chance? Freedom and the 1990s in the actor's reflection of Czech men
Pražská, Michaela ; Hlaváček, Jiří (advisor) ; Krátká, Lenka (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the topic of the newly acquired freedom in Czechoslovakia after the "Velvet Revolution" in 1989 in reflection of the men from the Czech regions. Attention is drawn to meaning and use of the freedom in the context of an individual who did not participate in political negotiations, but lived and experienced the times as an ordinary citizen. Therefore the work is based on the definition of a sociological term called Thomas theorem and focuses on perceiving of the newly acquired freedom as a new opportunity, primarily in the economic field. Keywords: freedom, business, economic transformation, Thomas theorem, oral history
