Czechoslovakia-Japanese International Relations in Times of The First Republic
Gecko, Tomáš ; Sýkora, Jan (advisor) ; Labus, David (referee)
This thesis aims, based on the available literature and printed and archival sources, to understand the development and changes of the economic relations of Czechoslovakia and Japan in the period of 1918-1938, therefore during the existence of The First Czechoslovak Republic. Emphasis is placed on the analysis of institutional background of Czechoslovak export to the Land of the Rising Sun (both the state and the private) and the interpretation of entry barriers with a view of eliminating them. The methodological approach is based on the theory of international trade and on the structural and the institutional analysis, which corresponds to the division of the text into relevant chapters. The issue is examined from the perspective of The First Czechoslovak Republic and the sources of Japanese origin were not used.

The History and the Current State of Czech-Japanese Relations
Koutník, Vojtěch ; Veselý, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Voráček, Emil (referee)
The aim of this paper is to describe the history of Czechoslovak-Japanese relations and Czech-Japanese relations since their conception until now. The paper is based on the social constructivist theory formulated by Alexander Wendt. The development of the relations is interpreted through Wendt's concept of national and social identities, while the main focus lies on the political dimension and historic context, under which the interactions between Czechoslovakia and Japan (or Czech Republic and Japan) were acted out. The final part of the paper, which describes the current state of Czech-Japanese relations, introduces the phenomena of globalization as a crucial power transforming the international system and the socially constructed reality of international relations, and analyses its influence on the relations between the two countries.
