Tkadlečková, Dorothea ; Aslan, Emil (advisor) ; Kubát, Michal (referee)
This bachelor thesis concerns the causes of the change in the outcome of the Turkish parliamentary election in November 2015. First, the outcomes of the June and November parliamentary elections are compared, and on these grounds the shift of the MHP and HDP voters towards AKP is evaluated. The results of the autumn election are then appraised through analysis of the inter-election period's events and the strategic steps taken by AKP. The thesis comes to the conclusion that the change in the November parliamentary election was connected to the events in the inter-election period, particularly the transformation of the internal security situation in Turkey and the parties' inability to agree upon the building of a governmental coalition. The shift in the November parliamentary election was also related to the strategic steps made by AKP to change the candidates on the parties' electoral lists.

The relation between the legislative and the executive power, the electoral system and the party system with the list of relevant parties are presented as other key factors related directly or indirectly to the coalition behavior. Political parties had decisive influence, that's why the group of their leaders called "The Five" was able to fade the importance of the parliament and the government during a certain period. On the other hand, there was also a great popularity and authority of T. G. Masaryk, the first Czechoslovak president. The main part of this thesis deals with the actual coalition behavior in years 1918-1938 and analyzes coalition formulas.

Cooperative game theory in dealing with local conflict
Ilavská, Adriana ; Mazal,, Jan (referee) ; Hrdina, Jaroslav (advisor)
The bachelor thesis is focused on introducing terms and solution concepts of the Cooperative Game Theory. The mathematical apparatus is then applied to the hypothetical local conflict in Scandinavia and in the countries of former Yugoslavia. The aim of the thesis is to point out the range of possibilities for using the Cooperative Games in the field of International Relations. For hypothetical conflicting situations, the potential gain of different coalitions is expressed by a characteristic feature. For the composed games is calculated the Shapley's value, expressing the fair distribution of profits between individual players, and Myerson's value, taking into account the impossibility of creating some of the coalitions. The work provides interpretations of results in the field of International Relations. It points out a wide range of possible applications of Cooperative Game Theory when conflicts occur at international scene, where this application is not common.

Jusko, Radoslav ; Neumann, Pavel (advisor) ; Šaroch, Stanislav (referee) ; Kosír, Igor (referee) ; Sipko, Juraj (referee)
Multilateral trade negotiations are widely influenced by various forms of cooperation among countries and by international organizations. There is a wide spectrum of differences in cooperation between the Uruguay and the Doha round of multilateral trade negotiations. Multilateral forums of developed countries are not able to provide sufficient impetus for negotiations, views of developing countries must be considered. There are differences in formation of coalition of countries, which are more wide-spread and more influential, though mainly by setting the negotiations agenda. There has been even a shift in policies of multilateral organizations; their direct and indirect influence is more noticeable. Though financial crisis led to diversion from multilateral trade issues, changed some positions, since 2009 there are signals, that there might be a shift in negotiations leading to successful conclusion of the Doha negotiations.
