Borská, Nela ; Mlsna, Petr (advisor) ; Suchánek, Radovan (referee)
Summary: Constitutional judiciary in Spain The subject of this thesis is constitutional judiciary in Spain. According to the Spanish Constitution of 1978 Spain belongs in the group of states which have established a system of concentrated and specialized constitutional judiciary. In the Czech legal literature is the Spanish constitutional judiciary mentioned mainly as a system based on the German constitutional judiciary, writings dedicated exclusively to the Spanish system are not very common. In spite of the fact that the legislative regulation of the Spanish Constitutional Court was really importantly inspired by the regulation of the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany (especially in the area of competencies of the Constitutional Court), there are also some significant particularities and typical features of the Spanish Constitutional Court which can be an interesting subject of an analysis.

Because of the limited length of the thesis this study does not contain a detailed analysis of all aspects of the Spanish constitutional judiciary. I have focused only on some topics of the Spanish constitutional judiciary, particularly on the topic of the position and the importance of the Constitutional Court in the...

Kolínová, Kristýna ; Tomalová, Eliška (advisor) ; Menclová, Barbora (referee)
A monument known as the Valley of the Fallen is located about fifty kilometers from Madrid. The complex was built by General Franco as a memorial to the victims of the Civil War. After his death, Franco himself was buried here in the basilica caved into the rock. The remains of the dictator situated at such a monumental site together with thousands of victims of the Civil War are, according to many, an unresolved issue for democratic Spain. As many meanings are assigned to the site, the debate about the Valley of the Fallen includes other topics as well. The thesis presents and analyzes the politics of memory and debate on the contested site of memory Valley of the Fallen from the beginning of the Zapatero government in 2004 until the end of the Rajoy government in May 2018. Based on the typology of mnemonic actors of M. Bernhard and J. Kubik, the thesis identifies and classifies national institutional actors participating in this debate. Transnational actors, as well as attitudes of the Spanish civil society, are also mentioned. Therefore, the thesis connects three areas of the collective memory studies: sites of memory, politics of memory and mnemonic actors.
