The human rights discourse in Japan and Japanese foreign policy
Zícha, Lukáš ; Karásek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Plechanovová, Běla (referee)
This diploma thesis attempts to provide an analysis of the human rights discourse in Japan and Japanese foreign policy. The author analyses the most important current issues (falling under the category of first-generation human rights) including: Korean minority issue, discrimination against persons of burakumin origin, gender issue and the topic of comfort women. In the second part of the thesis, the author explores the human rights discourse in the foreign policy of Japan. With the help of his research conducted in 2013 in Tokyo among diplomats, academics and NGO representatives, he examines three possible approaches to explain the current state of affairs: a national interests approach, a constructivist approach (cultural conditionality) and a policy-making approach (taking into account the role of intrastate actors).

Formation of the Japanese foreign policy in the 1950’s and 1960’s
Vatulya, Anna ; Knotková, Vladimíra (advisor) ; Druláková, Radka (referee)
This thesis disserts on the formation and development of the Japanese foreign policy in the 1950's and 1960's. It covers factors that have influenced it and also deals with concrete moments that were significant for the particular period. It analyzes Japanese foreign policy from various points of view and provides a review of its key aspects. The whole development of the two examined decades is often called The Japanese Miracle. Japan succeeded in catching up with developed countries in only twenty years and managed to range itself among the three most developed countries in the world. Japan became a member of many international organisations and has won a solid political credit to be able to standardize relations with the world and that way to go through a massive and remarkable development.
