The realm of trust has of late become the subject of a new agenda of research. Withal, as this paper demonstrates, trust has always implicitly been at the core of international relations theory. The object of the research is the transatlantic relationship and the role that trust plays on the field of security, using NATO as the platform. In this connection, at first, the author considers the category of trust in international relations as a whole.

The selected research methods are determined by the theoretical basis and the available data for the research. Taking stock of the history of transatlantic relations on the basis of researching literature and using the research findings of the case study, the author estimates the level of trust between the United States and European NATO members during periods of turmoil. The aim is to reveal the causes of such state of...
American intervention in Iraq: impacts of the de-Ba'athification process
Černochová, Karolína ; Hornát, Jan (advisor) ; Raška, Francis (referee)
The bachelor thesis titled "American intervention in Iraq: impacts of the de-Ba'athification process" is dedicated to United States influence in this process, its impacts on Iraqis and the future development of the country. De-Ba'athification process was part of US policy in post- intervention Iraq. The intervention in Iraq took place following Al Qaeda's terrorist attack on the towers of the World Trade Center in New York. Using the example of the first order of the Coalition Provisional Authority, the thesis analyses the success of the transition to democracy and the mechanism of transitional justice that the US chose in the transformation of Iraq. The CPA, led by its administrator Paul Bremer, was responsible for the administration of the country after the US invasion, and the first order was the most important feature of the whole process. Its goal was to remove any security threat to the coalition forces on Iraqi territory, to cleanse the country of Ba'athist regular members and associates and ban them from future employment in the public sector. The work assessed the effectiveness of the transitional justice mechanism concerning the social group that was punished during the de- Ba'athification process. These consequences have had and continue to have an impact on the development of the Iraqi...

The 2016 Coup d'Etat Attempt in Turkey and its Impact in Kosovo: A look into the Media Discourse Surrounding the 2018 Gulenist Extraditions and the Resulting Turkish-Kosovo Relationship.
Day, Ryan ; Žíla, Ondřej (advisor) ; Hornát, Jan (referee)
The overall purpose of this thesis is three folded; to analyze Turkey's constantly changing influence since the 1990s in the Western Balkans, consider the failed 2016 coup attempt in Turkey and the anti-Gülenist campaign by Erdogan in the region (with Kosovo as the focus), and to delve into the international and local media discourse surrounding the deportations of suspected Gülenist from Kosovo with the help of Turkish intelligence on March 29, 2018. Employing a mixed methodology approach, the author evaluated existing sources in an attempt to answer the research question; "In what ways has the 2016 Coup d'état attempt in Turkey resonated in the Western Balkans, and how did the local and international media discourse portray the 2018 Gülenists extraditions from Kosovo to Turkey?" The research holds that while the media discourse displayed Kosovo and Turkey's actions as being in violation of numerous international laws, the issue was quickly swept away from the spotlight. Since 2012 (the beginning of the Erdogan-Gülen rift) and especially following the 2016 failed coup attempt in Turkey, Erdogan has been emboldened by his growing personal relationships with key Balkan politicians. This has led to continued demands (thus far met with little success) that Western Balkan states arrest and deport...
