Modernity and the Holocaust
Kolomazníková, Pavla ; Mačuda, Michal (referee) ; Rozwalka, Szymon (advisor)
The topic of the diploma thesis Modernity and the Holocaust refers to the book of the same name by the Polish sociologist Zygmunt Bauman. In this book, Zykmund Bauman analyzes the relationship between modernist thinking and the Holocaust from a sociological perspective. In my diploma thesis I deal with the design of the Documentation Center, for which a closed architectural competition was announced in Brno. The topic is a continuation of the previous project, in which we analyzed mainly Bauman's work. These analyzes helped us to continue designing the center with a completely new perspective of thinking not only about the society, but also the architecture itself. In my project, I work with the issue of borders and barriers in connection with the division of people and spaces. I am looking for a ways of creatig the space that, by its very nature, call into question what is the real meaning of borders and barriers. In my proposal, I work with the idea of borders at different levels. As at the urban, service or material level.In my projcet I am disrupting som of the barriers and borders, I am creating new ones, but I am also reversing the relation ship between each other.

Rygálová, Monika ; Pfeiffer, Jan (referee) ; Sterec, Pavel (advisor)
The work aims to artistically compile perception of maps as a fact, what let us think about The world - how we know it from the map. I work with data, which I gain by displaying technology – eye tracking, which helps me to record track of moving eyes during watching any kind of picture. The observations will be people from different places such a place of stay etc. Gained data I am going to use as a study, which I will componate to maps and different vizualizations of world, countries etc. "Where i have not ever been before, it does not exist" – is idea of percepting world, wich I also work with on that project. Study will contain all aspect of perceiving maps and systematicly shown world related to the person, his memories to that place, fyzical contact and his impact in his scale person versus a the world.

Analysis and solution of the use of traffic areas of border crossings
Hladůvková, Blanka ; Chaker, Manar (referee) ; Matuszková, Radka (advisor)
The Diploma Thesis is composed of two parts: text-based and project-based. Text-based part deals with universal use of border crossings. Most of the border crossings is in private ownership, therefore it is not known how it will be used in the future. Deputies of villages, districts and local authorities were approached because some of the border crossings lie within their competence. The intention of the private owners was discovered. The project-part deals with particular border crosing between the Czech Republic and the Slovakia Republic – Starý Hrozenkov. Zlín district is interested in reconstructing of the mentioned border crossing. A project dealing with the future purpose of the rest area, such as building a gass station, a restaurant, a relaxation zone and a space for checking vehicles, was suggested within the technical study.

Wine Farmstead in Jaroslavice
Bauer, Karel ; Kristek, Jan (referee) ; Marek, Jiří (advisor)
The building of winery forms at the border created by recently defunct brickyard, located between break made by extraction and basement alley is creating pass into the vineyards. Its shape complements the landscape, leaving the vines to break through, create a place for relaxation and tasting their close contact. The underground part of the building is effectively used for wine making, tasting rooms on the first floor overlook the center of the action. Aside from the main building in a quieter part of the site are placed accommodation facilities for all visitors. The centrality of the working space and the availability of new vineyards makes workflow significantly easier. The new object so becomes part of the surrounding distinctive nature.

Hranice – redefinition of urban structure
Mokrá, Lucie ; Eichlerová, Eva (referee) ; Ponešová, Barbora (advisor)
Hranice na Moravě is Middletown, which is situated in the middle of protected natural territory. Because surrounded area of the town is consisting of smaller villages, we can find Hranice as local important catchment point of region, what means local centre of business and services, culture and education and work opportunities as well. However, this prediction is not real. Even though there are several equipment’s of education, witch product new graduates and potential residents of Hranice every year as well, there is deurbanisation and social and cultural decline because of low diversity of labour market and bad urbanistic strategy of development. In my project I design Centre of Craft. This Centre is reaction on nowaday‘s issues of low level quality of Crafts in Czech Republic and anachronistic bad general opinion about craftsmanship. Centre of Craft constitutes opportunities for students and graduates of local secondary schools with craft‘s subjects, for small tradesmen as start-up and for public as public workshop as well.

Geopolitics of Border Hardening: Protecting Statehood through Re-territorialisation
Mičko, Branislav ; Romancov, Michael (advisor) ; Doboš, Bohumil (referee) ; Lepič, Martin (referee)
The presented dissertation seeks to answer why states construct barriers on their borders. In order to provide an answer, a new theoretical approach is proposed based on re-reading the works of Carl Schmitt. The offered theory builds upon existing scholarship and is centred around the concept of nomos, defined as a political order consisting of a performative way of life and land division that is underlying the political existence of states. The basic argument advanced here is that border barriers are constructed against hard-to-identify strangers to this order. Seven case studies are offered where the process of barrier construction is tracked back- to-back with various developments pertaining to the identified nomos. The results confirm the existence of hard-to-identify strangers challenging the respective nomos in different ways and their role in the process leading to the barrier construction. For the study of border barriers, this implies the importance of the issue of strangeness and identification in predicting barrier construction. The work also demonstrates nomos' potential usefulness as an analytic prism for geopolitical research.
