The Attitudes of the Czech Republic's Presidents towards the European Integration
 Simon, Filip ; Ditrych, Ondřej (advisor) ; Knutelská, Viera (referee)
The main aim of this rigorosum thesis is to interpret the development of attitudes of three Czech presidents to the process of European integration in a broader international context.

Organized Civil Society from the Perspective of Vaclav Havel, Vaclav Klaus and Milos Zeman.
 Simon, Filip ; Pajas, Petr (advisor) ; Navrátil, Jiří (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to compare the concept of the civil society and the attitudes towards it, as understood by Vaclav Havel, Vaclav Klaus and Milos Zeman. Furthermore, the thesis examines the evolutions of their attitudes and their particular actions within the organized civil society. The comparison is carried out using available materials and relevant existing works by authors expertizing in the authors' political legacy. The first part introduces basic terms and three crucial phases in the development of Czech civil society. The second part critically analyses the authors' attitude to organized civil society. Comparison findings suggest that their concept of civil society does not concur: their attitude to influential organizations of civil society varies, yet a certain agreement is apparent in their support of voluntary activities of various interest groups.
