Spartakiada theme in Czechoslovak propaganda in years 1955-1985
Fliegl, Tomáš ; Köpplová, Barbara (advisor) ; Švec, Štefan (referee)
Since the overall topic of my diploma thesis is propaganda in socialist Czechoslovakia , I focused my attention on mass sporting exhibitions, the socalled Spartakiada. To limit the scope of my research to a reasonable size, I selected years 1955, 1965, 1975 and 1985. I analyzed the content of the periodical papers published during this period. For this purpose I chose the following publications: Mlada fronta (published by the Socialist club of youth) and Lidova demokracie (published by the Czechoslovak People's Party). The aim of this thesis is to determine whether and if so howthe communist party used propaganda in relation to the mass sporting events. My hypothesis was that participants of the events were not influenced by the socialist propaganda. au contraire they focused mainly on sports without anypolitical underlying meaning.

Czech comics for children serving the new regime on examples of Rychlé Šípy and Jiskrovci comics (1945-1949)
Kubalík, Jiří ; Švec, Štefan (referee) ; Suk, Pavel (advisor)
Diploma thesis deals with the relationship between totalitarian propaganda and the comics. Special accent is laid upon the extraordinary comics series Jiskrovci and Rychlé šípy. In the thesis we explore possible connections of ideologically driven communication and its infuence in the field of the magazines for children and young people - especially the magazine Vpřed and Junáci vpřed!. We deal with the possible propagandist continuity, which connected all totalitarian regimes through the spectrum of that time. We deal with the level of conscious usage of the propaganda, following the timeline forma the nacistic Germany to postwar Czechoslovakia. The Czechoslovakian area is the key one for the purposes of this work. We support out findings with the analysis of the comics series a their mutual comparison. Similarities found in that comparison are the basis for proving or denying the propagandist tendencies in postwar Czechoslovakia. The thesis concentrates on the rise of the propagandist trends in the time of regime change. Comics Rychlé šípy was chosen because of its special status in the czech history and its educational dispositions. Jiskrovci was chosen because the comics aimed to reach the continuity with the Rychlé šípy, but was made after the totalitarian takeover in 1948.
