The development of nuclear weapons and their proliferation: A comparison of Iran and North Korea
Marek, Martin ; Střítecký, Vít (advisor) ; Smetana, Michal (referee)
The development of nuclear weapons and their proliferation: A comparison of Iran and North Korea Master Thesis Author: Martin Marek Supervisor: PhDr. Vít Střítecký, M.Phil., Ph.D. Year: 2016 Abstract The text deals with nuclear proliferation in the cases of Iran and North Korea. The motives of nuclear ambitions are examined using models of Scott D. Sagan and other selected theoretical concepts. Gradual analysis of exposed states in the perspective of historical development, national security, domestic politics and norms forms the basis for understanding the perception of nuclear weapons by these states and approach to them as to a mean to accomplish certain objectives. Subsequent comparison reveals both similarities and difference between examined states in the perspective of motives of nuclear proliferation and shows explanatory potential of each model, which is various, in given cases. The effort of ensuring national security seems to be the strongest motive in both examined cases. It is followed by domestic influences, whereas norms stand rather for additional factor. Nevertheless, variety in explanatory power of the models is apparent in the cases of Iran and North Korea, notably in relation with their limitations. Other factors, such as regime type or parallel development of other type of weapons of...

Collection of vietnamese graphic art of 20th century from Náprstek Muzeum
Vohradníková, Karolína ; Hejzlarová, Tereza (advisor) ; Štěpánová, Irena (referee)
Vietnam went through diverse historical development that contributed to the diversity of today's culture and specific craft industry. Vietnamese culture was mostly influenced by China, where we can probably find the origin of folk prints production. Two famous folk prints production workshops gradually developed in northern Vietnam, but many other smaller centers can be found throughout Vietnam. The diversity of folk motives illustrates the richness of traditional vietnamese folk culture. Vietnamese collection from Náprstek Museum started without any approach of systematic collecting, mainly from purchases or gifts of travelers or professionals who reside or traveled to Vietnam for work or research purposes. Within approximately past fifty years collection of vietnamese folk prints has become the most comprehensive part of asian collections from Náprstek Museum.

The 2008 Russia-Georgia War. Russia's Dilemma
Doležel, Martin ; Ditrych, Ondřej (advisor) ; Střítecký, Vít (referee)
Russian government justified the war with Georgia by a set of normatively-legislative arguments. Intervention in Georgia was in accordance to those arguments legitimate. This rationalization proved to be invalid. Main goal of this diploma thesis was therefore to find Russian motives for the war with Georgia. Our hypothesis was that the reaction to Georgian military operation in South Ossetia was a result of a certain dilemma in Russian government. We used two methodological concepts introduced in the book of Graham T. Allison "Essence of Decision: Explaining the Cuban Missile Crisis" for the analysis. The first model, "rational actor", presumes that countries act in the international relations always rationally. "Rational actor" showed that Russian reaction was a result of the rational choice - Russia evaluated military confrontation with Georgia as the most advantageous alternative. The governments' behavior is in accordance to the second model, "organizational process", always limited by behavior of their parts - organizations. The second model revealed that the Russian reaction was result of activated programs, whose character led to massive military action. Our analysis showed that the model which fits better in the case of finding motives of Russian government for the intervention in Georgia...

Student motivation for studies at secondary medical schools / for university studies to earn a Bachelor of Medicine´s degree
JELENECKÁ, Hana
This thesis focuses on student motivation for studies at secondary medical schools, as well as on drivers of motivation of secondary medical school students for Bachelor studies. We wanted to know how motivation of present-day students differs from that of general nurses attending medical schools prior to 2004 and what is the impact of practical training teachers of secondary medical schools on professional motivation of students. Theoretical part describes development of nursing care education since 1945 until now, changes in concept of nursing care as they result from Act no. 96/ 2004 Coll. on ?acquiring and recognition of qualifications for execution of non-doctoral medical professions and activities relating to provision of health care and on amending some related legislation?. Further, we focused on job selection and its factors, and last but not least, on motivation and some motivational drivers. The first objective was to find out what motivates students of secondary medical schools in their first and fourth years. The second objective was to look at motivation of students for General Nurse Bachelor studies. The third objective was to describe motivation of general nurses for studies at secondary medical schools prior to 2004. Finally, the last objective was to find out how practical training teachers of secondary medical schools motivate students for their future profession. In the thesis empirical part, we used methods of qualitative and quantitative research. As far as quantitative research is concerned, anonymous questionnaires were used to collect data. The first population of 102 (100%) respondents included first-year students of three secondary medical schools. The second research population of 100 (100%) respondents included fourth-year students of three secondary medical schools. The third population of 107 (100%) respondents included general nurses of two medium-size hospitals. As far as qualitative research is concerned, questioning method and, in particular, semi-structured interview technique were used. A population of six practical training teachers of two secondary medical schools was involved. These practical training teachers were asked two questions: 1. Is there enough time scheduled for practical training to motivate students? 2. In your opinion, are motivational drivers used in practical training sufficient to get medical assistants involved in the practical training nursing process? Quantitative research has the following results: the first assumption that first-year students were influenced more by external motivational drivers than by internal ones, was not borne out. The second assumption that fourth-year students perceived acquired experience as a more significant motivational driver than external motivation, was not borne out either. The third assumption that motivation of students of secondary medical schools for university studies was depending on experience acquired in practical training was not borne out either. Similarly, the last assumption that motivation of students of secondary medical schools prior to 2004 was depending on the then existing value system, was not borne out either. On the other hand, it is clear from qualitative research that practical training teachers do not have enough time to motivate students and that motivational elements used not always achieve their defined goals. This often results from excessive number of students per group. The above research results will be provided to medical schools for thein self- examination. They may also be used for professional public at specialist seminars or congresses as well as for publication in specialized journals.
