Jaroš, Jan ; Čechurová, Jana (advisor) ; Kuklík jun., Jan (referee)
Czechoslovak Embassy and Consulate Buildings During the Inter-war Period: Selection and Acquisition Strategies In the Diplomatic Service of Austro-Hungarian empíre worked only few Czechs and Slovaks. For this reason the new established Czechoslovakia had to educate many diplomats and also to create its own network of embassies and consulates. This involved also the buildings. When choosing the right estates were above all important the following factors: representativness, security and costs. Own buildings provided better presentation opportunities and it was easier to adapt them for diplomatic function. Thanks to the stability of Czech currency in the interwar period were the costs for the buildings reasonable. For building, adaptations and equipping the buildings was used stable group of professionals. The critisism of purchase of some particular objects and its equipment was mostly sourcing from the relationships among some diplomats and political situation in Czechoslovakia.

Political ideas of Bohumil Laušman - story of the democratic socialist
Horák, Pavel ; Čechurová, Jana (advisor) ; Kuklík, Jan (referee)
Bohumil Laušman (born August 30th, 1903) was a member of the Social Democratic Party. He was elected member of the National Assembly for the Pardubice region after ten years in regional politics. At the age of thirty-one he became the youngest Member of Parliament. He organised the foundation of the second parliament formation after the Munich events within the system of limited democracy, the National Labour Party. Not only did he show courage, he also showed sense for reality, when he was regulating some left-wing radicals in the weak party. He participated actively in the resistance after the establishment of the protectorate. In his resistance, he promoted collaboration across the political spectrum. That is why the selfconfident Laušman entered the exile with the idea that the left-wing party should have a moral right to determine political direction of exile institutions, which were forming at that time. His obvious left-wing tendency and non-constructive behaviour are possible to be seen after the failure of his political formation of Czechoslovakia's resistance movement in Paris and London. He travelled to the USSR in the middle of the year 1942 to get acquainted with political ideas of the representatives of the Czechoslovak resistance residing there, possibly to get their political support. During...

Křiváček, Tomáš ; Adamová, Karolina (advisor) ; Kuklík, Jan (referee)
- 94 - Rašín's monetary reform This diploma thesis is dealing with the Czechoslovak monetary reform performed in March 1919 whose originator was the first finance minister Alois Rašín. After the dissolution of Austria-Hungary at the end of WWI new-formed Czechoslovakia assumed a heritage in form of totally depreciated currency. The Austro- Hungarian Bank as the central bank of monarchy financed the war through war loan to the state. The central bank de facto became a money printer and the result was galloping inflation. The Aim of monetary reform was mainly to separate the currency from the original Austro-Hungarian currency and create a new own one, eliminate inflation money and appreciate the new currency. The longer-range aim of reform was to connect the Czechoslovak currency with gold, thus to establish the gold standard currency. All preparations for reform passed absolutely secretly. The law about monetary reform was adopted during the secret session of Revolutionary National Assembly on February 25th, 1919. Even that night from February 25th to 26th, the state boundary was enclosed and all communication with foreign countries was interrupted to prevent inflow of Austro-Hungarian money from neighbouring countries. The separation of the currency was executed by stamping of banknotes. The stamping was...

This work deals with legal aspects of changes in Czechoslovakia in 1938-1939. Firstly, it outlines the historical background and relationships that were being formed during the First Republic. It further deals, in particular, with the constitutional development in course of so-called Munich crisis, i.e. describes plans for rebuilding of Czechoslovakia, as well as adopted measures and the Munich agreement itself that led to reduction of the territory of the state and liquidation of its political and economic independence. It also deals with development of the Second, post-Munich Republic from both internal and international perspective. Regarding internal changes, it points out to creation of autonomous lands, election of president Hácha, adoption of Enabling Act and elections to autonomous assemblies.

The end of the work deals with disintegration of the state, i.e. declaration of Slovak independence and invasion in the Czech lands...

This period was very interesting from social and economic point of view. During this time was rise substituted by recession. Except from this, with the formation of the independent state a great normative effort was on the rise too. Problems of solution of bankruptcy in so called "first-republic era" are introduced by brief description of historical development, which is mentioned to remember some elementary legal institutes, on which the bankruptcy law is based up to these days. During the work on this text of lead experts of the period in this branch were critically compared in order to realize the positives and negatives of the then regulation in the view of the praxis due to their opinions and possible conflicts as well as the way, in which the juristic theory and normative might reacted on the practical problems and public meaning. Studying of the Explanatory memorandum for the bill of the Act No. 64/1931 Coll., on bankruptcy, composition and resistance, helped a lot in this effort. The analysis of this Act is the axis of the work. Both the mentioned Act and the former Austrian regulation were compared as well as the...

Muse upon "Red Assimilation" of Jews in Czech Lands
Strobach, Vít ; Kuklík, Jan (advisor) ; Pullmann, Michal (referee)
The name of my thesis represents few problems, which influenced birth of the text and stand in its background. "Muse upon" is a kind of jink from us ing an ordinary title, that characterizes an analytic elaboration of some partial subject-matter. This text is rather a synthesis. On the other hand the synthesis presuppose the existence of some analytic studie s and that is a mission, which is waiting in the context of "red assimilation" of Jews in the Czech Lands for completion. And so I am not bolt for more, than "musing up on" . . I am interested in the relation of J ews In the Czech Land and socialistlcommunist movement. If I deviate from this subject some time - especially in the last chapter - it is in the intention of colouring the politic and strategy of communists, eventually of whole context, in which took place the dialog between J ews about nationa! and supranationa/ in the twenties and thirties of 20th centuly. This dialog is also the reason, why I focus on Czechoslovak Communist Party after the divorce of Social Democratic Party in the 1921. It was the communist platform that adopted more thoroughly the conception of supranationa!, which was crucial for socialistic inclination of Jews from nineties of 19.th century. I am conceming about the "Jewish question" in Czech socialists movement, but...
