Secularization as a provocation Christianity to the theological basis of the social theory of P. Berger and Ch. Taylor
Doležal, Kryštof ; Gallus, Petr (advisor) ; Hošek, Pavel (referee)
This master thesis is focused on interpreting theological motives in the social theory of P. L. Berger and Ch. Taylor, particularly in relation to their interpretation of the concepts of secularization and secularity. The first objective of the thesis is to demonstrate whether these partial sociological concepts can be read as theologically conditioned. Consequently, to elucidate how the dependence of these concepts on their theological origins influences the explanation of the pertinence of Christianity in the contemporary world. The second aim of this thesis is to testify the inner connection between the ideas of both authors; in order to explain how and for what reason the concepts of secularization and secularity acquire the same or different expressions. This thesis is organized into four sections, the first section defines the framework of the secularization debate in which the topic of this work operates. The second and third sections provide an analysis of Berger and Taylor's sociological approach. The last section compares the concepts that prove to be essential for the interpretation of secularization and secularity in Berger and Taylor.

Dialogue Rádl versus Hejdánek
Doležal, Kryštof ; Kučera, Jan (advisor) ; Franěk, Jakub (referee)
The problem of nation and nationalism is the subject of reflections in Czech political thought from the late 19th century; broader problem with definition of nation and its meaning constitutes more than centennial polemic called "the Czech question". This bachelor thesis inquiries chapter of this controversy, the works of two Protestant philosophers: Emanuel Rádl and Ladislav Hejdánek. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to compare concepts of these authors that are related to the nation, nationalism and philosophy of history. Furthermore, this bachelor thesis discloses continuity of certain idealistic-theological tradition, whose roots are discoverable (according to one interpretation) in ancient Israel. For Rádl and Hejdánek nation is a moral category, which is why the ethic aspects are central motive for their analysis of nation.

Confession as a Technique of Subjectification in the Political Thought of Michel Foucault
Doležal, Kryštof ; Franěk, Jakub (advisor) ; Salamon, Janusz (referee)
This thesis is focused on interpreting constitutive components of Michel Foucault's political thought (power, knowledge, subjectivity) from the viewpoint of the subjectification. The first goal of this work is to pursue the technique of confession as a crucial mechanism that participates on constructing the subjectivity in Foucault's work. To uncover in which connections it is usually pursued and what forms according to Foucault did it gain during history depending on various configurations of bonds between power and knowledge. The work's second goal is to substantiate a technique of confession defined by Foucault in contemporary human sciences, specifically in the foundations of the processes of data collection and then to demonstrate confession as a necessary element for creating an empirical type of knowledge.

Warriors of Faith in the Third Czechoslovak Republic
Doležal, Kryštof ; Klimeš, Ivan (advisor) ; Czesany Dvořáková, Tereza (referee)
! Warriors of Faith is the first Czechoslovak colored feature film, which narrates the final stage of Hussite Wars. This film should approved the legitimacy of nationalized cinematography and beca- me the representative work of the Czechoslovak art. This movie fitted in the nationalistic folklore of Czech culture, hussite tradition and allowed the argumentation against Germans, liberals and to em- phasize other aspects of Czech nationalism. Cinematography and press were the most important mass media in those days and were regulated or controlled by the government of National Front. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to clarify (through media analysis) in what matter the press reflec- ted the movie, or rather in what sense resonated the Czech nationalism in the selected texts.
