Bokeria, Levan ; Kučera, Tomáš (advisor) ; Karásek, Tomáš (referee)
The following master`s thesis focuses on small states security strategy choices, namely the case of Georgia. According to neorealist assumptions small states choose their security strategy to minimalize the potential threat to their existence. The case of Georgia is anomalous, as it has increased the security risk by choosing its alliance strategy. This work analyses the factors influencing the preferences in choosing a security strategy by neorealist and constructivist approach. The aim of this work is to research whether the selection of the security strategy is a rational choice and if so what other factors influence this choice

Bokeria, Levan ; Romancov, Michael (advisor) ; Valková, Irena (referee)
The main objective of this thesis deals with the efforts of de facto states of Abkhazia and South Ossetia on secesionism. The first part studies the historical roots of dispute among Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Georgia. Mutual disputes have led to an armed conflict in the early nineties after which Abkhazia and South Ossetia broke away from Georgia and began seeking the international recognition. After the Georgian-Russian war in 2008 they managed to achieve the partial recognition. The biggest ally of the afore-mentioned countries seems to be Russia which provides them with political, economical and military support. The thesis also analyzes the role of Russia in the conflict and its subsequent implementation. The final chapter focuses on the evaluation of Abkhazia's and South Ossetia's statehood.
