Chudoba, Jan ; Havlová, Radka (advisor) ; Volenec, Otakar (referee)
The thesis deals with the topic of the organization Islamic State, which has expanded in the territories of Iraq and Syria where it announced an establishment of a caliphate, which has not been recognized by any state. The Islamic state has challenged the status quo of Iraq and Syria and has significantly contributed to the destabilization of the region of the Near East. The aim of the thesis is primarily to analyze factors that have led to the radicalization of the locals, eventually to the support and expansion of this organization. The theoretical part of the thesis explains how the states of the Near East were created, describes the roots of the Sunni-Shia split and analyzes the socioeconomic and partly security development of Iraq and Syria. The practical part focuses especially on the development in Iraq after the fall of the regime of Saddam Hussein in 2003 and on the development in Syria after the beginning of the civil war in 2011 because these events are of great importance for today's situation. The last chapter of the thesis summarizes the efforts in fighting against this organization and outlines the influence of its existence on the region of the Near East.

Israeli Security and Existential threats in 21. Century
Podracká, Petra ; Havlová, Radka (advisor) ; Dubský, Zbyněk (referee)
This Master Thesis aims to present the current existential threats to Israeli security. Israel is a Jewish country in the middle of the Muslim region and her demise is wished by many involved parties. The Author describes sophisticated security systems of Israel, their efficiency and its unofficial nuclear program. From the state actors, it is Iran that has become the number one perceived threat in Israel thanks to its officials' rhetoric, its support towards terrorist organizations and its nuclear program. Israel is often involved in asymmetrical conflicts against non-state actors like Hamas and Hezbollah. The new extremist group Islamic State can also potentially pose a threat. Has Israel got reasons to worry about her existence? Has the Arab Spring brought about positives, negatives, or new possibilities? The Author aims to answer these questions.
