Šárka, Libor ; Falada, David (advisor) ; Seltenreich, Radim (referee)
1 Corporative system of fascist Italy Abstract and keywords The topic of the thesis is the corporative system of fascist Italy. The aim of the thesis is to describe the corporative system in Italy and the roots from which it was based, its gradual development, its organisational structure and its actual functioning in comparison with fascist and Mussolini's claims about what corporatism was to represent for Italy and the world. The thesis is divided into four parts, each separate part divided into chapters and paragraphs that flesh out that part. Initially, the thesis focuses on fascist ideology and its intellectual and philosophical foundations, as these are essential to understanding fascism, with which the corporatist system is significantly associated. The thesis also pays attention to Gabriel D'Annunzio and his loyalists as the forerunners of the fascist movement in Italy, their march on Fiume, which largely inspired the later march on Rome, also the Carta del Carnaro constitution. Also discussed is the emergence of the fascist movement itself, led by Benito Mussolini, and its gradually growing influence, culminating in the march on Rome, and the subsequent infiltration of the fascists into politics and the entire state establishment in Italy at the time, laying the foundations for the introduction of...

The Influence of Corporatism on State Security in (South)East Asian States
Mališ, Jan ; Karmazin, Aleš (advisor) ; Karásek, Tomáš (referee)
In the world of politics, and anything that surrounds it, any kind of outcome gets decided, in huge part, by the influences it went through, it absorbed and which it stood in opposition to. One of the most cited and talked about influence-paths are those of the economy of a state and how it influences other parts of the state. One aspect of such a phenomenon we can look at can be how the economic sectors are set up in the state - more specifically, how the corporate framework of a state looks, and how this economic part of the state influences the state's security policy, in particular its grand strategic policy. For the analysis of this occurrence, we have chosen 4 countries in Southeast and East Asia, more specifically those that display a single ruling, dominant party for most of its modern history - Singapore, Japan, The PRC (China), and Vietnam. Each nation offers different unique peculiarities, that make each analytical chapter differ in many instances, which then get distilled into a final chapter, with a spectrum for each corporate framework. Japan and China land on opposite ends of the spectrum with Japan showing the most societal corporate system, and China the most statist-authoritarian one. Both Singapore and Vietnam share a "mixture" of these two extremes. Following upon this...

Batism - ideology of utility
Úšela, Jan ; Mlejnek, Josef (advisor) ; Kouba, Karel (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with theme of so called Bataism as specific kind of societal order realized in the frame of so called company town. Bataism is characterized by that kind of political power sui generis which primarily depends on economic strength of Bata Shoes Company. Political power of Bata is substantially realizing its political power especially in the frame of town of Zlin. By researching Bataism we define term of so called capitalist paternalism which primarily describes specifics of capitalist/paternalist rule over enclosed area of his own company town (de George, Salt), then historically secondarily also specifics of his rule over broader area (Ford). By researching Bataism from an angle of political science we concentrate on the definition of its power structures and the very character of that power itself. For these purposes we use concepts of Michel Foucault as disciplinary power and model of so called Panopticon. In addition we provide definition of Bataism from the perspective of ideology and utopia. Aim of our work is describing and explaining (seeming) paradox: political program of Bataism is continually legitimized by democratic method although its performance can be seen generally non- democratic.

Batism - ideology of utility
Úšela, Jan ; Mlejnek, Josef (advisor) ; Kouba, Karel (referee)
This master thesis deals with topic of specific urban political régime of the town of Zlín between years of 1923 and 1938. In the interwar period Zlín was ruled by monopolist rule of Baťa Shoes Company. This firm had dominant economic position in the respective town and it created own candidate list composed of company managers which was winning municipal elections. Town of Zlín is example of specific phenomenon of capitalist paternalism (our own term) realized over area of so called company town. In our study we provide basic historic background of mentioned terms. Then we explore particular aspects of Baťa's rule over Zlín like factors of cultural, economic or employment policies. After all of these aspects we try to create whole picture of Baťa's régime. We compare it with other flourishing régimes of the period too. Baťa's Zlín régime ("batism) had strong modernist and emancipatory effect on its participants. In the same time it formed and manipulated with these respective participants without expectable defense reactions of these people. We would like to examine specific power relations of Baťa's rule and to describe its behavior and reception in Zlín society of interwar time.
