Kaizl versus Bráf. Economic liberalism versus economic nationalism in Czech lands at the turn of the 19th and 20th century?
Slavík, Jan ; Soběhart, Radek (advisor) ; Chalupecký, Petr (referee)
The bachelor thesis, called "Kaizl versus Bráf. Economic liberalism versus economic nationalism in Czech lands at the turn of the 19th and 20th century?", concerns with economic nationalism in Czech lands and understands it as a definite kind of protectionism. The thesis wants to prove that economic nationalism is aimed only at restriction of competition and for achieve this aim is used national question. The opposite of this interpreted economic nationalism is liberal theory, which gradually disproves with its arguments all the ideas, on which stands economic nationalism. I support my thesis with economic thinking of two important Czech national economists from the end of 19th and the beginning of 20th century, who often devoted to questions of protective measures and liberalism in their works.

The main part of the work consists of analysis of schoolbooks for the subjects History, Civics and Literature. Insitutional pespective, analysis of school curriculum and a case study focusing on faculties of Pedagogy are also considered. The thesis concludes that the concept of the Czech Educational system is monocultural and thus not responsive to the change of social reality. A few strategic and concrete steps deriving from the outcomes of the analysis and a comparative approach are presented. These steps should help to switch from a monocultural educational system to a multicultural one. The author argues that key changes need to be realized in the field of future teacher traning as well as in the area of schoolbooks, that are currently largely reproducing cultural stereotypes and that don't reflect culturally plural composition of the society.
