Mlsna, Michal ; Skřivan, Aleš (advisor) ; Chalupecký, Petr (referee)
My thesis monitors the evolution of weapons program of Skoda Works during the years 1930 -- 1939. The main goal of this paper is to analyze the evolution of production for the domestic market and for export with regard to economic and political changes during the period and also to compare the response of armament production to peaceful production. From the perspective of foreign customers, special attention is paid to the position of Skoda Works in the states of Little Entente. We can see decline comparable to the decline in the peaceful production during the Great Depression period of the armament production of Skoda Works for Czechoslovak Republic. The foreign production falls more steeply relative to the expressions of Great Depression in states of Little Entente, but on the other hand the recovery comes sooner. The arms production achieves the recovery sooner than the peace production for Czechoslovak Republic. During the second half of the 1930s we can see a rapid growth of the armament production till to sign of the Munich Agreement. The position of Skoda Works at Little Entente states was marked by declaring national bankruptcy and the internal political struggle in these countries at first, the growing economic influence of Germany and also by the economic policy of the Czechoslovak Republic.
