Vokálek, Martin ; Rolenc, Jan Martin (advisor) ; Hlavsová, Aneta (referee)
The thesis deals with the events that predated the death of Muammar Gaddafi and particularly examines whether the subsequent reactions of the persons involved were in accordance with international law. The essence of a war crime and its definition in terms of international law is researched in the theoretical part of the thesis. Further tackled is the perspective of both the main actors of the conflict and the main institutions active in the field of international law, such as the UN or the International Criminal Court. The author subsequently describes and analyses the main circumstances in which the long-time leader of Libya Muammar Gaddafi died. On the basis of prior examination of the issue the thesis tries to answer the question of whether this case can be described as a war crime for which punishment should fall. The third part examines the reactions of the main actors who were influenced in the Libyan civil war. Of importanance is also the subsequent analysis of how was this incident reported in the media.

Responsibility to Protect - Concept and Application
Sitter, Tomáš ; Dubský, Zbyněk (advisor) ; Sršeň, Radim (referee)
Topic of this thesis is the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) doctrine that has become very current at the present time because of its use in legitimising the operation of NATO and other countries during the uprising in Libya in 2011. Apart from a number of sympathetic opinions, it has caused a wave critique, which has been of two types. Some criticised even the fact itself that the UN Security Council had labelled the Libya situation as a case suited for the application of this doctrine. There were also those who had agreed wholeheartedly with this designation, but who were disappointed by how the operation that followed had proceeded. This section of critics claims that NATO and other states that took part in the operation overstepped the mandate granted to them by the Security Council and thereby caused at least a partial delegitimising of R2P.

The civil war in Libya
Varjan, Milan ; Kochan, Jan (advisor) ; Kočišíková, Viera (referee)
The thesis covers the topic of the armed rebellion in Libya that gradually spiraled into a full-blown civil war and thanks to a timely military intervention ultimately led to the collapse of Muammar Gaddafi's regime. Drawing on a set of CDA principles I identify main features of the political discourse set in the socially-political milieu of the civil war in Libya prior to the adoption of the UN Security Council Resolution No. 1973, which provided a mandate for a military intervention in Libya that was subsequently carried out by the USA, NATO and other members of the ad hoc coalition. Also, through a prism of realism I elaborate on the circumstances leading to said military intervention, its development (of the intervention) and finally its outcome.

The importance of conflict in Libya for development of world oil prices
Mikešová, Alžběta ; Stuchlíková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Jiránková, Martina (referee)
Conflict in Libya was the most serious of a series of uprising at the beginning of the year 2011 in the Middle East and North Africa. Following the current situation of world production and consumption of oil, the work focuses on the reaction of oil markets to the conflict and estimates the future development of the oil industry. The aim is to analyze how much the Libyan Civil War influences the development of oil prices on world markets. The second main point of this work is to determine to what extent the current situation in the country could damage the Libyan economy. Much of the information comes from documents and statistics of the U. S. Energy Information Administration, the International Energy Agency and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.

The aim of this thesis is to introduce the Maghreb countries and the historical background and current events to clarify the common issues between the two shores of the Mediterranean Sea. Specifically, this thesis introduces the relations between Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Mauritania, Libya with their former colonial power, France. Although Libya differs in many aspects from the other Maghreb countries, it cannot be isolated in the region. Thus this thesis, with the emphasis to the differences, takes Libya also in account.

Historie spolupráce mezi státy ve Středomoří a Barcelonský proces s jeho důsledky
Tomková, Marianna ; Zamykalová, Miroslava (advisor) ; Novotná, Yvona (referee)
In this bachelor thesis I aim to analyze the development of relations between the northern and southern Mediterranean. I focus on monitoring the approach of individual European countries to their neighbors in the Mediterranean and the adopting of a common policy by the EC/EU towards the Mediterranean. From Brussels' perspective and starting with the Barcelona Process and also in the Union for the Mediterranean this concept has many advantages: the southern and eastern Mediterranean countries have always been closely connected to Europe. They represent a greater objective than the rest of the region economically, politically and also in terms of European security. In the last chapter I focus on the latest political developments in the Arab world and how they could affect the approach of the EU towards the region. I use official EU sources, textbooks by doc. Ing. Cihelková, statistical data from UNCTAD and newspaper articles concerning recent news in Arab countries.
