Political parties as one of the democracy-guarantees in the Federal Republic of Germany
Berger, Vojtěch ; Mrklas, Ladislav (advisor) ; Jeřábek, Martin (referee)
This thesis aims to describe the consolidation process of democracy in West Germany by the example of the political parties. Firstly, it analyses historical reasons for the negative approach towards the parties in the German area and compares how two different law- and constitutional systems, the Weimar Republic and the Federal Republic of Germany, were dealing with the political parties. The main focus is put on the parties' role in the current German society and on the parties' influence on the democracy-durability in Germany. Special attention is paid to two aspects - financing of the parties and political education. The final part of the thesis summarizes arguments, which confirm the positive tribute of the parties to the German democracy. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Citizenship of the European Union: rights of EU citizens and its impact on the legal order of the Czech Republic
Růžek, Lukáš ; Jeřábek, Martin (advisor) ; Šlosarčík, Ivo (referee)
This diploma thesis explores content, purpose and impact of citizenship of the European Union. The European Union is an international organization that affects day-to-day lives of citizens of its Member States. From the beginning of its existence, the European Union (formerly the European Community) has always taken into consideration the interests of its Member States. As it has accrued more power while widening and broadening its competencies, it has made it possible for the European Union to tackle new problems. Eventually, in order to reduce democratic deficit participation of individual citizens became inevitable for the purpose of creation of a genuine link between individuals and the European Union, which helps to ensure its proper governance. Although some rights linked with citizenship had been already incorporated into the law of the European Union, citizenship of the European Union was embedded into the primary law of the European Union by the Maastricht Treaty. Entering into force on 1 November 1993, this represented a milestone for the quality of the relationship between the European Union and citizens of its Member States. Citizenship of the European Union, which is a citizenship sui generis, is characterised by its accessority and additionality to the citizenship of a Member State....

Multilateralism in German Foreign and Security Policy 1999-2011
Schwarzová, Petra ; Střítecký, Vít (advisor) ; Jeřábek, Martin (referee)
The analysis of the German foreign policy multilateralism and its transformation showed that each examined period evinces clear tendencies which meet three concepts of multilateralism outlined in the theoretical beginning of the thesis. Regardless of some fundamental changes in understanding of multilateralism and its new dimensions, it is not possible to speak about development towards any hegemonic or unilateral policy. What could have been seen in the last analyzed period, was an apparent preference for pragmatic and short-term foreign and security policy. During the nineties, Germany hesitantly normalized its international role by breaking some of the taboos typical of the past decades. Foreign and security policy, however, was still based on pacifist identity and values, which have been replicated for years. This tendency corresponds with the reflexivist approach to multilateralism. Following period witnessed the emancipation of Germany and its interests. The government was neither afraid to decline participation in the operation, which did not have UN approval, nor to end up in isolation. The relationship with the United States cooled down and Gerhard Schröder stressed instead the bilateral alliance with France. European integration was no longer an obligation, but rather became a voluntary...

The Republic of Turkey - with or without? A comparative study on German and British policy towards the question of the EU-accession of Turkey.
Georgievová, Hana ; Jeřábek, Martin (advisor) ; Kučerová, Irah (referee)
The main target of my thesis is to determine the causes of divergent positions of two countries - the Great Britain and Germany - on the issue of Turkey joining the European Union. Using three theoretical approaches - neo-realism, neo-liberalism and constructivism - I am identifying three possible causes: overall positive/negative profits for the security dimension, overall positive/negative earnings for the economic dimension and the cause of the national identity. On the basis of the positions of Germany and the Great Britain three hypothesis are made rising from these theories. Within the security dimension the potential of Turkey of maintaining the security of both countries against security threats is researched. An important concept here is the intensity of perceived security threats to individual states. Within the economic dimension are examined economic benefits or costs for both countries, allowing them accepting Turkey would arose. This section focuses on three main areas: economic implications for both countries from the inclusion of Turkey into the internal market, consequences for budgetary policy and consequences for both countries arising from the free movement of Turkish workers. Recent theory to determine the causes of different attitudes is constructivism. Here I identify the...

Czech Republic, Slovakia, and the monetary integration in the EU
Bendl, Ondřej ; Karlas, Jan (advisor) ; Jeřábek, Martin (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on the process of euro adoption in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Regarding the time frame, it mainly covers a period of 2004-2014. Nevertheless in order to maximise plausibility of results, this thesis focuses on relevant moments beyond the above mentioned period as well. The main aim of this thesis is to analyse a variation in the relationship of both examined countries towards the process of European monetary integration. Whereas Slovakia joined the Eurozone in 2009, the Czech Republic has not fulfilled its obligation stemming from the EU membership yet. The secondary aim of this thesis is to verify the power of IR theories dealing with transfer of sovereignty on the supranational level. Thus, this paper strives to identify whether the constructivist or rationalist (for the purposes of this thesis represented by ideational liberalism and commercial liberalism / liberal intergovernmentalism) theoretic paradigm is more accurate in its attempt to explain the examined variation. In order to fulfil this aim, methods of difference and congruence are applied. However, each of these methods shows different results. According to the method of difference, an explanation based on commercial liberal / liberal intergovernmentalist logic of economic-materialistic consequences may...

Sudetendeutsche Landsmannschaft in the 21st Century in the Czech Republic and Germany
Jechová, Veronika ; Kučera, Rudolf (advisor) ; Jeřábek, Martin (referee)
The diploma thesis "Sudetendeutsche Landsmannschaft in the 21st century in the Czech republic and Germany" deals with the position and influence of this organization on present Czech-German relationship. In the theoretical part of this work there is described the creation, structure, aims and needs as well as present problems of Sudetendeutsche Landsmannschaft. Further in the text is the analysis of the position of this organization in the Czech Republic and in Germany. The cooperation of the representatives of Sudeten Germans with German political parties and the attitude of Czech and German governments towards this association is the main part of the second - 4 - chapter. The last chapter deals with the influence of Sudetendeutsche Landsmannschaft, especially of sudetendeutsche question, on the selected periods of Czech-German relationship. Strained elections in 2002 and complicated entry of the Czech Republic to the European Union which was caused by the attempts of the Sudetendeutschen representatives to violate the Beneš Desrees approved that Czech-German relationship on the government degree can be cooled under some circumstances. Ten years of the existence of the Czech-German Declaration shows that Czech-German relationship is from a long-term, complex view very good and that Sudetendeutsche...
