Fall of the German empire and some aspects of the social-cultural development of Weimar Republic on the pages of selected memoir literature
Bříza, Aleš ; Kovář, Martin (referee) ; Tajovský, Ladislav (referee)
Český akademický svět doposud práci, která by komplexně a ve všech aspektech rozkryla (rozkrývala) složitost německých dějin daného období, postrádá; přitom je ale nutno právě v něm hledat příčiny pozdějšího ztroskotání prvního vážně zamýšleného pokusu o demokratické zřízení v nové německé republice. Rok 1918 znamenal mezník v politických, hospodářských a sociálních dějinách Německa. Pro oblast kulturních dějin to neplatí až tak doslova (viz v první kapitole Předmět práce a úvod do teorie memoárové literatury); ty podléhají jiným vlivům, jsou doménou pouze omezené skupinky lidí, kteří jako nositelé určité tradice, mající hluboké kořeny v minulých dobách, zajišťují kontinuitu mezi minulým, přítomným a budoucím a do jisté míry mohou pomáhat zmírnit sociální, hospodářské a politické otřesy. Pojem "na stránkách vybrané memoárové literatury" neznamená, že bych došel kjiným závěrúm, než jaké je možné najít v seriozní odborné literatuře. Jedná se spíše o metodologický problém; moje analýza vybraných událostí vychází ze zápisú memoárového charakteru, jejichž zastoupení je zde v obráceném poměru, tj. převládá nad odbornou literaturou. Úkolem historické vědy však je hledat nové relevantní postupy, metody a rozšiřovat pramennou základnu.
Beginnings of Czechoslovakian-Turkish relations in years 1918-1926
Novák, Petr ; Nálevka, Vladimír (advisor) ; Tajovský, Ladislav (referee)
Poli ti ka mezi válečného Československa vůči mimoevropským zemím není v české a slovenské odborné literatuře prakticky vůbec zpracována. Příčinou, proč tato tematika dosud z valné části leží na okraj i vědeckého zájmu, je patrně s ku tečnost, že československá republika v těchto zemích až na nečetné výjimky neměla žádné zvláštní politické zájmy. Vztahy k mimoevropským státům byly pro meziválečné Československo důležité především po hospodářské stránce. Jednou z uvedených výjimek byla Osmanská říše, respektive Turecká republika. Důvodem byla především skutečnost, že tato země ležela na pomezí oblasti, o kterou Československo projevovalo hluboký zájem - na pomezí Balkánského poloostrova. česká a ve značně menší míře i slovenská politika a veřejné mínění se o oblast Balkánu začaly zajímat již po krymské válce. Období intensivního zájmu však nastalo až v 70. letech 19. století v souvislosti s tzv. dubnovým povstáním na území dnešního Bulharska a s následnou rusko-osmanskou válkou. Tehdejší česká liberální politika neskrývala svůj kladný postoj k emancipačnímu hnutí balkánských národů, které souviselo s obecnějším procesem pozvolného rozkladu mnohonárodnostních říší v druhé polovině 19. století. České (a také slovenské) sympatie Sl získaly hlavně balkánští Slované - Srbové a Bulhaři, částečně pak i Řekové....
Nuclear Society - United States of America 1945 - 1964
Ulvr, Michal ; Kovář, Martin (advisor) ; Skřivan, Aleš (referee) ; Tajovský, Ladislav (referee)
Michal Ulvr Abstract It was the near-end of the Second World War, which defined the popular reception of the Atomic bomb for upcoming decade. In the first year of the nuclear monopoly, the feeling of uncertainty and fear of death in the nuclear war was not yet present in strength. The mood of relative safety dominated the American society till the fall of the monopoly in 1949. Since the first atomic explosion occurred in the USSR, the atmosphere of fear, that never faded back and was latent since August and September 1945, made an exuberant appearance in press and other media. Suddenly, the American government made (after years of neglect) a great effort to calm down the uncertainty of the public. A Federal Civil Defense Administration was established at the end of 1950 and provided more or less useful information, propaganda, material and logistical support for a war with the Soviet Union, which was expected to come sooner or later. Plenty of educational and propaganda pamphlets, books and training films were produced in determination to make it clear, that survival under nuclear attack was possible. And indeed, at that time, there was even a good chance, that keeping some basic survival rules in mind an individual could come out of a nuclear attack relatively unscathed. Administration even tried to...

This study provides institutional and economic analysis of the phenomenom of consumerism in China. It identifies confucianism, maoism and dengism as key determinats of its development.

Deng Xiaoping reforms proved to be key break point for rising Chinese consumer society.

US Federal Budget as an instrument to enforce ideological principles at the beginning of the 21st century.
Joukl, Petr ; Tajovský, Ladislav (advisor) ; Chalupecký, Petr (referee)
In my diploma thesis, I deal with the federal budget of the US as an instrument designed to promote partisan policies on the example of the administrations of George W. Bush and Barack Obama in order to find out whether there are ideological differences in the budgetary policy of Democrats and Republicans at the beginning of the 21st century. The main part of the thesis is devoted to the analysis of the revenue side and spending side of the budgets of both presidents and the development of the balance they managed. The analysis suggests that, although the nature of the time, phase of the economic cycle and other external influences have a significant impact on budgets, the federal budget can still be considered as an effective tool for expressing partisan preferences.

Wachal, Viliam ; Johnson, Zdenka (advisor) ; Tajovský, Ladislav (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with mutual trade between the United States of America and the Third Reich during the years 1933 - 1945 and analyzes the influence of American companies that had their branches or other business interests in Germany during Nazism. The thesis analyzes the international trade and its development between both states in the pre-war period as well as international trade during the war. Thesis deals with the contribution of American companies to the German war economy and analyzes their influence and behavior change after the outbreak of war. The hypothesis on the reduction of business co-operation with the on-going war at state level has been confirmed, just as hypothesis of continuing the cooperation of American firms after the outbreak of war.
The Introduction of Medicare and Medicaid Programs and First Experiences with Their Functioning (untill 1967)
Křivánek, Jan ; Tajovský, Ladislav (advisor) ; Johnson, Zdenka (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the introduction of Medicare and Medicaid programs and examines their functioning in 1966 and 1967. It summarizes the historical development of American health care until 1965 and notes the possible causes leading to the emergence of their specific market based healthcare. It shows a different view on healthcare solutions from representatives of the Republican and the Democratic parties. Detailed analysis of individual programs shows their shortcomings and possible problems. A key part of the thesis is the analysis of empirical data from 1964 to 1967. This part confirms the main hypothesis about the impossibility of self-financing in the first years of its operation. The charts illustrate the need for reform and the percentage changes in different types of healthcare costs. At the same time, it also points to the marginal cost of the programs in the context of the entire federal budget. It also shows the introduction of Medicare and Medicaid as a turning point and a starting point for the rise in total health spending in the US.
Economic Policy in the USA and Germany 1933–1939
Johnson, Zdenka ; Tajovský, Ladislav (advisor) ; Krebs, Vojtěch (referee) ; Slaný, Antonín (referee)
The dissertation provides an analysis, evaluation, and comparison of selected areas of economic policy in the United States of America and Germany from 1933 to 1939 within the context of the 1920s, the Great Depression, and the Second World War. Based on a thorough analysis of the determined objectives, tools, the intended and unintended impacts of their fiscal policies, monetary policies, and foreign-trade policies, the dissertation thesis aims to verify the basic hypothesis that the United States and German economic policies were largely similar as responding to similar issues that both advanced economies had to face. During the verification process, the author relies mainly on the genuine processing and analysis of original statistical sources. In the individual chapters of the dissertation both identical, and also different features in selected types of economic policies are presented. On the basis of a comparison of the main economic-policies trends, despite some differences in the partial characteristics of chosen economic policy types, it can be concluded that economic policies of the central governments of Germany and the United States of America were similar in surprisingly many respects.
