Mainstreaming of the far-right politics in the attitude to migration, integration and Islam in the Netherlands
Drgáč, Zdeněk ; Váška, Jan (advisor) ; Emler, David (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the process of mainstreaming of far-right political ideas in the Netherlands, which can be observed in the country at least since the beginning of this century, in connection with the approach to the Muslim population and Islam as such. An analysis of the pre- election programs of six selected political parties from the right and left spectrum for the parliamentary elections in 2002 to 2021 examines how the phenomenon of growing popularity of the far right, defined in the Dutch environment by two parliamentary political bodies, the Freedom Party and the democracy, signed on program changes in the traditional democratic political current. At the same time, the thesis places the mainstreaming in the context of the crisis of multiculturalism as a social order that the Netherlands began to face after the assassination of Pim Fortuyn.

Matoušek, Jan ; Filipová, Lucie (advisor) ; Emler, David (referee)
Bachelor thesis abstract This bachelor's thesis deals with the issue of attitudes to the Nazi architectural heritage in Munich between 1945 and 2015. In Munich, which was described by Adolf Hitler as the Capital of the Movement and the Capital of German Art, Hitler built several representative buildings to serve Nazi propaganda and to demonstrate the magnitude of Hitler's regime in the Third Reich. This bachelor thesis examines specific examples of Munich's Nazi buildings - Königsplatz, Ehrentempel pantheons, Haus der (Deutschen) Kunst, Führerbau and Verwaltungsbau. After 1945, when Munich was occupied by the American army, it was necessary in the post-war denazification to take a stand on these Nazi buildings in the interest of the city's new democratic future. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to present the history of Munich's Nazi buildings and research post-war attitudes towards these specific Munich buildings burdened by the Nazi past in the so-called architectural denazification strategies since 1945, when World War II ended until April 2015, to the opening of the Munich Documentation Center for Nazism. Based on research into the history and post-war attitudes towards individual buildings, I came to the conclusion that all studied buildings in Munich had at least partial suppression of their Nazi...

Lujcová, Drahomíra ; Emler, David (advisor) ; Šmidrkal, Václav (referee)
Předložená diplomová práce se zabývá subkulturou krajní pravice ve Svobodném státě - pojednáno v multidisciplinárním kontextu, práce vysvětluje důvod také využívá politologické roviny, vymezuje pojem pravicového extremismu a ukazuje jeho rávní úrovni je rozvedena reakce státu ve formě legislativních a represivních opatření. V kontextu občanského vzdělávání jsou prezentovány instituce a aktéři, kteří v Sasku na tomto poli působí s cílem eliminovat pravicový extremismus ve společnosti. Text rovněž definuje, jak velké nebezpečí subkultura ve společnosti představuje. Vláda se snaží s pravicovým extremismem vypořádat, i když se žádná politická strana nedostává přímo do parlamentu. Jde především o hrozbu společenskou spočívající v páchání trestné činnosti, schopnosti mobilizace a tvoření chybných ideologických přesvědčení. Stát chce primárně svoje občany chránit před kriminální činností, vzdělávat je a rozvíjet demokratické uvědomění, přičemž systém občanského vzdělávání Spolkové republiky Německo je celosvětově považován za vzor, jelikož se obor po druhé světové válce stal díky specifickému vnímání pravicového extremismu součástí německé identity

Vaidišová, Kateřina ; Váška, Jan (advisor) ; Emler, David (referee)
The thesis French Policy to Institutional Reform of the European Union under the President Chirac analyses the European policy of France in the period 1995-2005, which means from the beginning of Jacques Chirac's presidency to the rejection of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe by the French in referendum by which the Chirac's European policy in fact ceased to exist. The thesis mainly deals with the approach of France to the reform of institutions of the European Union, particularly with the reform of the European Parliament, European Commission, and Council of the European Union and in case of Treaty of Nice also with the Court of Justice of the European Union. This approach is analysed by the documents from intergovernmental conferences antecedent to the particular treaties regulating the Treaty of Maastricht, which are Treaty of Amsterdam, Treaty of Nice and the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe. Each of these intergovernmental conferences is examined in terms of the goals and topics introduced, subsequently discussed and really reached by the French politicians during the conference. Also, it is dealt with the topics about which compromises with other countries had to be made and with the requirements that the French managed to implement into the text of the treaty....

J. Chirac and the French politics of multilateralism: content analysis of presidential discourse (1995-2007)
Koptišová, Evelína ; Tomalová, Eliška (advisor) ; Emler, David (referee)
Jacques Chirac is one of the most prominent French politicians emphasizing the multilateral agenda in international relations. However, the French multilateralism is specific in a way it opposes unilateralism and especially the "Americanisation" of the world politics - a phenomenon that is seen as a core of globalisation from the French point of view. This thesis focuses on the content analysis of Chirac's speeches concerning multilateralism between the years 1995-2007, and it aims to demonstrate that some of the geopolitical issues - particularly the Iraq War in 2003 - influenced Chirac's attitude and confirmed him in his multilateral agenda. This paper works with the methods of content analysis in order to compare individual speeches and to observe Chirac's developing stance. First chapter is dedicated to the historical and political context and to the role of the president in French politics. Second and the most important part then presents selected Chirac's presidential speeches in a chronological order and focuses on the content analysis of their transcripts. The primary objective is to find out how has Chirac's attitude towards multilateralism changed and how it was influenced by geopolitical issues, such as the Iraq War. Furthermore, this work also studies how has Chirac's multilateral...
