Status of Women in Turkey and Changes in the Context of European Integration
Ferenčáková, Lenka ; Rovná, Lenka (advisor) ; Pachta, Lukáš (referee)
Diploma thesis "Status of women in Turkey and changes in the context of European integration" deals with the situation of women's rights in Turkey and the reform process which has been accelerating under the accession negotiations with the European Union.

The paper also displays opportunities for further progress and obstructions to overcome in cooperation among all involved, and particularly between the movement and the EU, to achieve the desired result - gender equality in a potential...

French defence policy after the Cold War. The Changing role of the army
Rubešková, Martina ; Perottino, Michel (advisor) ; Pachta, Lukáš (referee)
The present thesis deals with the changing status position of the army in the French defence policy according to the expanded security concept of the Copenhagen school. The concept of security in France has changed after the end of the Cold War, the consequent disappearance of the threat represented by the clash of the East and West and with the expansion of the threat sector and referent objects. It was necessary that the role of the state and its army has to change based on the newly defined threats. Throughout French history its army occupied an important position as it ensured France its independence and grandeur. However, events associated with the end of the Cold War have resulted in changes in the French defence policy. There is an expansion in the tasks that the military must assume to protect its state. On the basis of three factors (France's approach to the international system, the protection of the individual and the receding role of the army) the present thesis analyzes the changing role of the army in the defence of France.
