The Evolution of Jordanian Political Regime After 1989
Ducháčková, Michaela ; Buben, Radek (advisor) ; Koubek, Jiří (referee)
The aim of this master thesis is to analyze political regime of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and to find out some possible effects, which could have had an influence on its stability and survival in the last 25 years. The Jordanian political regime had gone through several crises in the examined years. Not only did it survive all of them but also became stronger. Which factors caused the survival of the regime? In the first part of the thesis we typologize the regime from three possible perspectives (institutional, formalistic and legitimation). The second part deals with an analysis of factors, which enable the survival of Jordanian political regime. The emphasis is given on the role of institutions.

Comparison of formation and activities of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and Jordan
Jelínek, Antonín ; Lepič, Martin (advisor) ; Jelen, Libor (referee)
Muslim Brotherhood is transnational Islamic movement that operates in the countries of northern Africa and the Middle East. Originally it used to be a charity organization focused on various social issues and it only later entered the political scene as well. The main goal of this bachelor thesis is to analyze and compare its activities and achievements within the political systems of Egypt and Jordan. The thesis also aims at verifying explanatory power of the institutionalization theory within the regimes with limited democratic functioning. More specifically, the thesis discusses possible influences of the Muslim Brotherhood's level of institutionalization onto its mobilization potential. The movement originates in Egypt, where it experienced many ups and downs in term of its access to the political arena. In contrast, the position of the Brotherhood was more stable in Jordan, mainly due to the cooperation with the king of Jordan. From the beginning of 90s the movement have participated in the political life of both analyzed countries mentioned above. Getting a presidency seat and majority in parliament in Egypt after the Arab Spring events is considered as the biggest success of the movement so far. Meanwhile in Jordan, the changes after the Arab Spring were not as significant. Nowadays, the...

Dynamics of phosphates and nitrates in (Liderovice, Radimovice u Tábora, Košín and Jordán) water systems.
KURAL, Vladimír
This thesis deals with the evaluation of concentration levels of phosphates, nitrates and other parameters (pH, conductivity, suspended solids, alkalinity, total carbon, inorganic carbon, total organic carbon and total nitrogen) in fishpond systems at Tabor. Further was to consider the difference in value depending on the age of the systems and agricultural activities in their vicinity. Samples were taken in season 2015 Liderovické pond system (2 sampling points at the top of the system, one sampling point in the outflow from the system), Radimovická pond system (one sampling point at the top of the systém, one sampling point at the outlet of the system) and Jordan ( one sampling point at the outfall of the pond). The highest differences were found in the values of conductivity from 279 S.cm-1 to 1230 S.cm-1, the values of total carbon from 18.75 mg.l-1 to 67.33 mg.l-1, and the values of suspended solids from 1 mg.l-1 to 117.33 mg.l-1. The gradual increase in the value of NO3-N and PO4-P was registered during the season with Jordan. Based on the results we can say that the older (Radimovická system) showed higher levels of total carbon and younger (Liderovická system) showed higher NO3-N depending on land use in the surrounding area.

Israeli Security and Existential threats in 21. Century
Podracká, Petra ; Havlová, Radka (advisor) ; Dubský, Zbyněk (referee)
This Master Thesis aims to present the current existential threats to Israeli security. Israel is a Jewish country in the middle of the Muslim region and her demise is wished by many involved parties. The Author describes sophisticated security systems of Israel, their efficiency and its unofficial nuclear program. From the state actors, it is Iran that has become the number one perceived threat in Israel thanks to its officials' rhetoric, its support towards terrorist organizations and its nuclear program. Israel is often involved in asymmetrical conflicts against non-state actors like Hamas and Hezbollah. The new extremist group Islamic State can also potentially pose a threat. Has Israel got reasons to worry about her existence? Has the Arab Spring brought about positives, negatives, or new possibilities? The Author aims to answer these questions.
