Millennium Development Goals: Comparison and Analysis of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia
Bunatyan, Hayk ; Cahlík, Tomáš (advisor) ; Chytilová, Julie (referee)
This thesis analyses three South Caucasus countries: Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. The main point of analysis is the eight Millennium Development goals created by United Nations, during Summit on September 8, 2000. Each of the countries will be analyzed individually and then compared with each other to see the strong and weak points of each of the countries in the process of reaching the eight MDG goals. I will try to include all-important factors, which may play role in distinguishing those points. The main goal of my thesis is to prove and try to show that my hypotheses, which are mentioned below in the thesis proposal are really actual and might benefit the South Caucasus region.

The civil war in Somalia
Netopilová, Eliška ; Kochan, Jan (advisor) ; Pavlicová, Vendula (referee)
The level of living in many states in Africa is below-average, when compared to the European standard. One of the main challenges of the UN is peacemaking and peacekeeping in an international community. The UN tries to reach the point by using various means. In case of Sub-Saharan Africa, therefore Somalia too, exerts the UN an influence by force of peacekeeping missions and indirectly by means of specialized agencies of the UN. The aspiration of this bachelor thesis is to assess the effects of the UN and the specialized agencies of the UN on the conflict solution and on the level of living of the people living in Somalia. Somalis suffer from malnutrition, dehydration and mortal diseases by reason of a civil war that has lasted for more than two decades. High rate of illiteracy also reduces prospects for well-paid job and thus the ability to make livelihood. The UN tries to handle the situation inter alia by security reasons. By ensuring primary human needs would be created social harmony and reduced crime that could be a potential threat to the international community.
