Skřítek, Radim ; Soběhart, Radek (advisor) ; Chalupecký, Petr (referee)
The bachelor thesis focuses on the theoretic concept of socializing (humane) democracy made up by chairman Edvard Beneš in London during the Second World War. I want to analyse and explain this concept in the first part of the thesis. The other parts of the thesis concentrate on particular themes which was influenced by Benes's activity and concide with the time of creation of the concept. The particular themes are Benes's relationship to Soviet Union, expulsion of Germans from Czechoslovakia and negotiations about first government after the second world war. Both theoretic and practical view are considered. The main task of the bachelor thesis is to give answer, whether the concept was purposeful and whether the realization of this concept was possible.
