Bolivia: Capitalism, Socialism, and Feudalism Balancing between Cuba and the USA
Smetáček, Martin ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Kochan, Jan (referee)
The work is dealing with the research of the socio-economic structures in the Bolivian society, which as a result of historical evolution embody distinct anomalies with an implication into the political sphere. The goal of the work is to offer a material on the basis of which it will be possible to detect and understand those inner tensions and to orientate ourselves in the present turbulent environment which the Bolivian society is currently undergoing. The fore theme is the approach of these processes in the light of the ongoing "indigenous revolution" conducted by the platform MAS led by Evo Morales. The author is using a synthetic method, when first he concentrates on the individual problematic fields and later summarizes, connects and synthetically implies concrete conclusions. The very results of the work can be used by those interested in the study of Bolivia for economical, sociological and political purposes or even by economic entities planning an entrance into the Bolivian environment. In the work the author has used his personal experience and pieces of knowledge gained during his three months staying in Bolivia as well as other information obtained from broad currently accessible scientific publications, documents ant further up-to-date resources.
Cyprus: the Crossroad between Europe and Asia
Smetáček, Martin ; Adamcová, Lenka (advisor) ; Němečková, Tereza (referee)
In my work I consider the cultural-political routing of Cyprus from its position between Europe and Asia with respect to its economical orientation. In the view of the fact that Cyprus was a profoundly developing country in the year 1960, when winning its independence from Great Britain, I focus mainly on its economic development after the year 1960 and the performance of the economy on the threshold of the 21st century, whereas I ask myself if Cyprus has already completed its transformation from a developing country into a socially and economically developed country with modern free market economy. The work briefly records the history of the country since its infancy in as early as 8th millennium BC up to the end of the 20th century AC, it further considers the economic development of Cyprus at the end of the 20th century, and finally it focuses on the current social-economic conditions in the country under the pattern of dividing economies between developing and developed countries. The work also regards the intercommunity rupture, which dominates Cyprus since 1974 and factually divides it in two parts: the Cyprus Republic and the internationally unrecognized Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. I accentuate exclusively the date regarding the Cyprus Republic.
