Dvořák, Michal ; Riegl, Martin (advisor) ; Soukup, Jaromír (referee)
The aim of the thesis is to analyze specific phenomenon of non-economic neocolonialism and its conflicts. I have done the analysis of two conflicts (in Western Sahara and in Namibia) in context of the Cold War, I was trying to discover the context between dynamics and domestic political development of metropolitan country and the conflict. The next aspect was a regional dimension of the conflicts, that is why I analyzed the influence of neighboring countries and their motivation in the conflicts. The main aspect was an international dimension of the conflicts, that is why I examined the approach of the Soviet Union, the United States of America, the United Nations and the Organization of African Unity to the conflicts. The main research question was: What types of processes and mechanisms have led Namibia to independence, while the Western Sahara was still under foreign control? The next questions were: What led the superpowers to affect the conflicts, which were in the periphery of world competition? How behaved the world organizations during the conflicts? Had any influence in these conflicts? And last: What kind of interest had the neighboring countries in these conflicts?

Growing Role of China in African Security
Květová, Lenka ; Karásek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Werkman, Kateřina (referee)
Chinese economic expansion in Africa is a widely discussed topic, but less academic attention is being paid to the role China plays in African security. Since the late 1990s Chinese activity in Africa had been growing rapidly. Beijing's interests are predominantly economic, mostly represented by market seeking and foreign direct investments, and political, generally perceived as a mutual support in international organizations. The thesis focuses on the traditional principle of non-interference in how Chinese policy towards African security has been evolving together with growing Chinese interests on the continent. The People's Republic of China influences African security matters in four areas: diplomatic involvement, arms deals, support and financing, and military cooperation. By analyzing those areas with a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, concrete cases have been identified, when China interfered in internal affairs of particular states, thus altering its policy of non- interference towards more pragmatic and case by case based approach.

It is possible to state that mediation and its use has been existing in our society since time immemorial, however it is necessary to point out that modern society got to know mediation better only in connection with its legislative alteration in the Act on Mediation which implemented the Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2008 on certain aspects of mediation in civil and commercial matters.
