This bachelor's thesis will focus on the development of social systems in Baltic countries (Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia) from 1991 to 2011. Closer analysis will be focused on unemployment policy. Although these three countries are usually evaluated together as one region, nowadays, in the time of economical crisis, this view is vanishing slowly.

Comparative analysis of foreign policies of the Baltic states
Gromilova, Anna ; Druláková, Radka (advisor) ; Cibulková, Petra (referee)
The aim of the diploma thesis is to analyze and to compare the foreign policies of Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia in the period from 1991 until 2004 and to reach a conclusion, whether the frequent and very common generalization of the foreign policies of those states is correct. The first part of the paper explores the main approaches to the analysis of foreign policy and state's national interest. In this part of the paper, the appoach to analysis of the state's national interest, offered by the Copenhagen school of theory is chosen, and this approach is then used in the second chapter of the diploma. The second part of the paper, examines the threats of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania in political, societal, military and economic sectors. Finally, the conclusion describes the results of the analysis of each sector and provides the assessment and comparison of the main problems of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and of the ways in which the states were trying to solve them in the chosen time period. It is shown, that despite the fact, that Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania were often facing similar challenges, they did also have an abundant number of different and specific problems of their own, were not able to work in concert, and often showed resistance to be deemed as "Baltic". This leads to the conclusion that treating their foreign policies as a joint "Baltic foreign policy" is incorrect and can be misleading.

Filip, Michal ; Munzi, Tomáš (advisor) ; Štěpánek, Pavel (referee)
The focus of my work is to analyze the economic trend and development of the so-called "Baltic Tigers", from the beginning of the 21st century up to the present time. Here belongs the states of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. I'd like to concentrate on their mutual economic boom in detail, due to which they became an example for other successful transit economics, and also I'd like to depict the main cause of their GDP slump in the last period, which is related to the inception of the financial crisis. I'll be describing the situation in Latvia in particular, their unfavorable economic condition and future outlook. My paper holds forth on certain issues, such as reasons of the overheated economy, emigration, GDP negative accrual, short-term debts participation, increasing unemployment and social disturbance. In the closing part I'll try to outline possible economic forecast and solution of the actual matters.
