The War on Drugs in American Think Tanks
 Faltys, Jan ; Kozák, Kryštof (advisor) ; Schulzová, Helena (referee)
This thesis focuses on current situation in the USA that revolves around the legalization of marijuana from the perspective of American think tanks also known as policy institutes. The aim was to compare approaches of these institutions which differ from each other in their ideological background as well as in their proposed solution. It was necessary for a complex analysis to cast light on the institution of think tanks, their history and influence on lawmaking. Four different groups of think tanks were chosen - libertarian, conservative, centrist and liberal/progressive. It was found out that their impact is hard to measure but they certainly do have some impact. Individual think tanks propose different drug policies from legalization to decriminalization to preservation of current situation and not even two think tanks in the same ideological group share the same opinion.

Reasons for Declaration of War on Drugs in Mexico: Two Perspectives of View.
 Drhlíková, Eva ; Kozák, Kryštof (advisor) ; Raška, Francis (referee)
Bachelor thesis Reasons for Declaration of War on Drugs in Mexico: Two Perspectives of View deals with reasoning of Mexican War on Drugs that was proclaimed by Mexican president in 2006. It describes two different perspectives on the war. One of them is adopted by the Mexican government and is based on arguments that Mexico became a country - drug consumer; level of violence increased and security situation in country significantly deteriorated; drug cartels exercise more influence in Mexican politics. The second view is based on the situation that occurred in the country after the presidential elections in 2006. Untransparent elections and Calderón's very close victory resulted in the thesis that Calderón needed a strong theme which would be supported by people and at the same time would lead away from the unstable political situation in Mexico. This paper aims to analyze these perspectives and answer the question why the war was proclaimed and what stands behind the different approach of the government.
