The Division of Czechoslovakia - Views of People from the Border Area - the Zlín Region versus the Trenčín Region
Lukáš, Roman ; Mücke, Pavel (advisor) ; Houda, Přemysl (referee)
The first, theoretic, part of my thesis is based on the historical analysis of mutual relationships of Czech and Slovak people in the common country up to the year of 1992. The thesis also takes into consideration the outcomes of recent researches in fields of political sciences, sociology and other social disciplines to produce the most accurate description of the situation that preceded the break-up of 1992/1993 itself. The second, research, part of my thesis is effected by the method of oral history. Its aim is to investigate the opinions, views and experiences of various Czech and Slovak border citizens in the first half of the 90's in view of both the political development during dividing the Federation and the impact of the break-up on their daily lives - a new state line in proximity of their homes, establishment of border crossings and customs, changes in shopping habits, problems connected with work on the other side of the border line, visiting friends or organizing common events, school trips and the newly introduced problematics of people smuggling. It also aims to reflect the possible change of mind of some people toward the division.

Lupejová, Eva ; Mücke, Pavel (advisor) ; Hlaváček, Jiří (referee)
Cílem této diplomové práce je zpracovat do podoby biografické studie životní osudy autorčina dědy Dimitrije Lupeje (roč. 1917), rodáka z Podkarpatské Rusi, který prošel nechvalně proslulými pracovními tábory Gulagu a následně se připojil k čs. jednotkám generála L. Svobody. S jeho armádou bojoval u Kyjeva, na Dukle, kde byl zraněn a posléze došel až do Prahy. Po válce zůstal v československé armádě až do svého odchodu do penze v roce 1972. Ve své diplomové práci by se autorka chtěla především zaměřit na tři okruhy dědova života - gulag, východní fronta a poválečná armáda. Získaný materiál, doprovázen vzpomínkami jeho vrstevníků - též válečných veteránů, by měl být doplněn a konfrontován o poznatky z archívních zdrojů a příslušné odborné literatury. Autorka práce využije při analýze životního příběhu svého předka metodu orální historie a zároveň se pokusí začlenit celý příběh do kontextu obecných dějin, přičemž nabídne ucelený pohled na osud jednotlivce, jenž byl ovlivněn převratnými historickými událostmi tehdejší Evropy. Klíčová slova: Dimitrij Lupej, válečný veterán, druhá světová válka, gulag, armáda, čs. jednotky, Ludvík Svoboda, Sovětský svaz, Podkarpatská Rus, komunismus.

World of wings
Vašut, Jaroslav ; Hlaváček, Jiří (advisor) ; Mücke, Pavel (referee)
The main objective of this work is to expand knowledge about the history of the 1st Air Transport Squadron, from the time it was established in 1946 until it was disbanded in 1993. Findings are based on interviews, with former members of the transport squadron serving at Ostrava Mošnov Airport, which were directed using the oral history method. The work also takes information from available archive sources and literary sources. The distinctiveness of the topic (an elite air transport squadron entrusted with special purpose tasks within the army), which is put in historic context, is reflected in the text. However, the author places the greatest emphasis on the conditions of a professional soldier's everyday life. The author does not present definite conclusions, on the contrary, he endeavours to view the specific issue from various viewpoints. The soldiers serving with the air transport squadron are not portrayed as extraordinary supermen, but as men and women for many of whom serving with the air force was not simply satisfaction of their enjoyment of flying, but was also hard, demanding and, frequently, very dangerous work, which was not always undertaken for personal benefit, but because of their deep connection with their country, and which strongly affected not only their own lives but also...

Eyes front! - Life stories by members of the Czechoslovak People's Army
Kopečný, Ivan ; Mücke, Pavel (advisor) ; Hlaváček, Jiří (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate the themes and motives that have been obtained on the basis of the analysis and interpretation of the biographical narrative with the members of the Czechoslovak People's Army. Acquired Themes do not only provide a basic insight into everyday life of the soldiers before 1989, but it partly introduces even some negotiation and interpretation of narrators, the possible directions of further questioning, the soldiers used abbreviations and slang words captured in the interviews. In the future most of the topics could be supplemented separately or together , with other sources, to help initiate independent studies related to the force components of the Czech society in the period of normalization and transformation, so in this way the work also represents a kind of elementary "catalogue" that can be used by other students or researchers interested in the issue of the monitored period and profession.
