The Relationship between National Social Party and its Platform of Young Members in years 1901 - 1910
Herc, Svatopluk ; Doubek, Vratislav (advisor) ; Polášek, Martin (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the relation of the Czech National Social Party and its youth organization during 1900 and 1910. National Social Youth was an autonomous radical wing of the party to a large extent. It didn't hesitate to form its own political opinions and exercise an independent political activity which caused a risk of conflict between the youth and the party leadership. The work analyses the relation of both subjects to the idea of socialism and to the antimilitarist activity. It is also investigated how the different attitude of the party and youth to these two topics was reflected in their mutual relation and political profile of the entire party. A part of the work is also a brief description of the origin of National Social Party and its youth organization.

Sources of the Ukrainian Elite's Identity Problems
Žernov, Denis ; Voráček, Emil (advisor) ; Doubek, Vratislav (referee)
This thesis addresses identity issues of the Ukrainian elites using two parallel Ukrainian narratives. In search for conflict lines, we look at 20th ct. milestones which played a major part in the formation of the Ukrainian elites. An emphasis is placed on the modernization of Ukrainian society in 1920s and 1930s. We also analyze the impact of these two Ukrainian narratives on the formation of the Soviet nation using strong historical ties between the Ukrainian and the Russian nation. These ties still have an impact on the formation of Ukrainian identities; however, the conclusion of this thesis suggests that it will be possible to assess the definite shape of the Ukrainian identity only after a new supranational identity - similar to the Soviet one - has been shaped. KEY WORDS: ELITES MODERNIZATION NARRATIVE IDENTITY RUSSIAN UKRAINIAN SOVIET

The doctoral thesis deals with comparative analysis of historical examples in the search for national identity in texts of Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk (1850-1937) and Roman Dmowski (1864-1939). Both Masaryk and Dmowski belonged to prominent representatives of public and political life in their countries at the end of the 19th and in first decades of the 20th centuries. The question of national identity is a theme often associates with their life and work. Masaryk and Dmowski influenced Czech and Polish politics, political and intellectual thought before 1914. During the First World War, they were leaders of Czechoslovak and Polish politics in West European emigration (Masaryk as the president of the Czechoslovak National Committee, Dmowski as the president of the Polish National Committee).

Masaryk became president of Czechoslovakia and symbol of the Czechoslovak identity, Dmowski represented rather the opposition against mainstream development in postwar Poland. The first and the second parts of the thesis deal with Masaryk's (first part) and Dmowski's (second part) concept of historical examples in search of national identity in context of their thought and life.

Struggle for Slovakia. The separatist states in Slovakia 1918-1919
Bandžuch, Tomáš ; Doubek, Vratislav (advisor) ; Pejša, Robert (referee)
Roku 1918 se rozpadla dualistická Rakousko-Uherská říše na několik nástupnických státních útvarů. Zatímco v "rakouské" části soustátí se podařil tento přerod vcelku pokojně a jednotlivé její oblasti nastoupily poměrně rychle nezávislý vývoj, země Svatoštěpánské koruny prodělaly vletech 1918 - 1919 bouřivý přerod ze středně velkého státu s kvazivelmocenskou pozicí v malou středoevropskou zemi. Tento vývoj byl podmíněn mimo jiné rozdělením dvou třetin území bývalého Uherského království mezi okolní země. Tato práce se tedy zabývá těmito "nepokojnými léty" na Slovensku - jednom z území, nad nímž tehdy ztratila budapešťská vláda kontrolu. Neklade si pochopitelně za cíl prozkoumat v komplexnosti tuto turbulentní dobu, neboť studie takového rozsahu by byla zdaleka nad její rámec. Snaží se podchytit pouze jeden její aspekt, který je zvláště v posledních letech silně opomíjen - problém separatistických státních útvarů, které oficiálně odmítaly státoprávní spojení svého území jak s Maďarskem, tak i s Československem. A to ať se jednalo o regionální státní útvar utvořený menšinou k zajištění její svébytnosti (Nezávislá spišská republika), stát vybudovaný na národním základě (Slovenská lidová republika - SLR) či snad stvořený na revolučně-marxistické pozici (Slovenská republika rad - SRR). Tato práce má poukázat na...
