The British and Jews in Palestine, 1944-1948
Zamrazilová, Barbora ; Tumis, Stanislav (advisor) ; Soukup, Jaromír (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the withdrawal of Great Britain from Palestine and the reactions of the Zionist movement on her mandatory policy. In 1937, the British planed to divide the mandate between the Arabs and the Jews, terminate the administration and establish an alliance with the successor states. Disapproval of the Arab world, worsened security in Palestine and the threat of a war in Europe led the mandatory power to prolong the administration and restrict the jewish immigration.These meassures caused a deterioration of Anglo-Zionist relations. During the Second World War, the Zionist Organization put forward a request for the establishment of a Jewish Commonwealth in Palestine. No long after, the British restored their preparations for the termination of the mandate. As before the war, they sought for the pernament teritorial solution for postmandatory Palestine and new allies. Due to unstable geopolitical situation and the loss of her hegemonic position, Great Britain had to consider the attitudes of the Arab world and the United States of America.

Arab Revolt in Palestine (1936-1939). A Contribution to the History of the Jewish-Arab Conflict in the Middle East.
Zamrazilová, Barbora ; Tumis, Stanislav (advisor) ; Valkoun, Jaroslav (referee)
This contribution focuses on the Arab revolt in Palestine in the years 1936-1939. This uprising was a breakpoint in the Arab-Jewish coexistence and its consequences affected the rest of the British Mandate period.

Revolt was a result of a persisting long-term Arab frustration which arose from fear of Jewish domination and desire for sovereignty.
