From rhetoric to reality? Analyzing the gendered dimension in peace agreements
Gokarn, Nivedita ; Nisbet, Jolan (advisor) ; Karásek, Tomáš (referee)
According to UNSCR 1325, the involvement of women in peace processes is evaluated in this article. It draws attention to the discrepancies between 'representation' in peace accords like the R-ARCCSS and JPA and 'participation' in the peace negotiations to determine the degree to which their perspectives were considered, and overall gender aspect was highlighted. This article contends that women's involvement in the peace talks in South Sudan was only a checklist activity. The social structure of the society and the absence of institutional mechanisms hindered the substantive representation of women. The paper goes on to say that since female negotiators must shoulder the burden of a peace deal, symbolic inclusiveness may even have unintended consequences. The investigation discovers a significant discrepancy between the peace accords and the whole process. It also makes note of the fact that Sudanese society tends to make it difficult for members to participate meaningfully, which has an effect on how long the peace will survive. Consequently, this research emphasizes how institutional processes are gendered by adopting a constructivist viewpoint.

Water conflict resolution in international law
Gregorová, Markéta ; Sobotka, Michal (advisor) ; Falteisková, Sabina (referee)
Water conflict resolution in international law Abstract Riparian states across the world share common water resource in more than 200 international river basins. International law regulations of riparian states' rights and duties in the field of shared water resource utilization at the regional level is not sufficient. Conflicts between states arising from it constitute a threat to international peace and security. Given effects of climate change on freshwater resources, it is presumed that these conflicts would become more frequent in the future. This thesis deals with the topic of the water conflict prevention and resolution in the international water law. The aim of this thesis is to evaluate which conflict resolution mechanism is suitable for water conflicts. At the same time, the author asks the following research questions: What are the factors that determine the efficiency of conflict resolution mechanisms in maintaining international peace and security? How are the international legal principles of shared water resource utilization reflected in the water conflict resolution mechanisms? The thesis applies the method of theoretical analysis to water conflict resolution mechanisms and their ability to fulfill their primary objective to maintain international peace and security. It presents findings...

Stabilizing role of Egypt in the Middle East
Bednářová, Klára ; Střítecký, Vít (advisor) ; Hindlsová, Lucie (referee)
The thesis deals with the question of Egypt's role of a biased mediator towards the Palestinian side in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and its stabilising effects on the region in the form of a case study applying the theory of a biased mediator in conflict resolution on the Egyptian example. In addition to this, the goal of this thesis is to demonstrate the beneficial effects of different forms of mediation activities and their combination, including biased and neutral mediation, in the transformation of intractable and protracted conflicts into their tractable form, using the example of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The identification of Egypt's positive role in contributing to the resolving of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, of which it was once a warrying party, portrays the transformational capacity of conflicts. The thesis also highlights Egypt's potential in moderating extremist trends in the region, also through the successful mediation efforts in the inter-palestinian conflict involving the Fatah and Hamas movements, contributed to by Egypt's changing position in the region, her historical role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and her strategic and security concerns in the region.

Different Mentality as a basis of international conflicts. The case of escalation relations between Russia and the EU in 2008 - 2018.
Kruglikova, Ekaterina ; Cviklová, Lucie (advisor) ; Černý, Karel (referee)
Since 2008 with the Russo-Georgian war we observe the gradual deterioration of relations between Russia and the European Union which achieves its apogee during the Ukrainian crisis and the annexation of Crimea. The cultural approach is to be applied for understanding and exploration of the conflict: its reasons and mechanism. The work is aimed to define conflicting beliefs and values, considering them on a cultural basis. The current escalation of relationships is reviewed as a cultural conflict, the author claims different mentality as one of the influential factors and possible dimensions of conflict analysis. This work also points out internal cultural mechanisms and features provoking aggressive external policy and considers cultural identity as a container of ideas which justify and originate opposition and conflict with other cultures. This work is an attempt to introduce a concept of an individual's mentality, to link personal and group mentality and find out how cultural meaning content influences on formation of a personal mindset - a system of personal beliefs and values. Research part consists of preliminary comparative questionnaire-based survey with 30 respondents, secondary analysis of World Value Survey, and 10 depth interviews based on 3 survey questions, analyzed by means of mental...

Linked Data Integration
Michelfeit, Jan ; Knap, Tomáš (advisor) ; Klímek, Jakub (referee)
Linked Data have emerged as a successful publication format which could mean to structured data what Web meant to documents. The strength of Linked Data is in its fitness for integration of data from multiple sources. Linked Data integration opens door to new opportunities but also poses new challenges. New algorithms and tools need to be developed to cover all steps of data integration. This thesis examines the established data integration proceses and how they can be applied to Linked Data, with focus on data fusion and conflict resolution. Novel algorithms for Linked Data fusion are proposed and the task of supporting trust with provenance information and quality assessment of fused data is addressed. The proposed algorithms are implemented as part of a Linked Data integration framework ODCleanStore.
