In Ben Ali's ruled Tunisia the revolution started, Libya went through a civil war that ended with Gaddafi's death giving chance to the people to change the regime. Egypt is considered to be politically the most important Arab country and during Mubarak's rule it used to be a stable state. The revolution disclaimed this hypothesis. The thesis aims at comparing the way that two Czech weekly magazines Respekt and Týden wrote about the dictators. If we compare the pre-revoltuion era (from 2007 until early 2011) and the revolution year 2011, we can see the increase in the number of the texts published and that the way of speaking about the dictators has partically changed.

The year 2011 witnessed the change and in case of Gaddafi, also the dictator's death. The dictators were presented by media as the guarantors of the stability in the region. Then in...

Comparison of the regimes and foreign policy of Hosni Mubarak and Mohamad Morsi
Tománková, Zuzana ; Eichler, Jan (advisor) ; Dubský, Zbyněk (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with comparison of two regimes in the Arab Republic of Egypt, namely with the reigns of Hosni Mubarak and Mohamed Morsi. The first chapter analyses the internal factors as the objects of comparison: legitimacy and the status of army. The second chapter is concerned with the group of external factors, including the foreign policy of Egypt towards the region and towards the USA, since the relationship with the USA has been a long-term determinant of Egypt's foreign policy towards the region. The biggest difference between the two regimes is considered to be embodied in the position of army, particularly regarding its relationship with the presidents. Moreover, there are diverse origins of legitimacy of the regimes and causes of its loss. On the other hand, foreign policy of Egypt did not get through distinctive changes.
