Ethical dilemmas of social working with children with malfunction of behaviour
VOŠAHLÍKOVÁ, Iva
The aim of the thesis is to articulate individual dilemmas in social work with children with behavioural problems. Thanks to the specification of the facility in which I work as a social worker, i.e. an educational institution for girls, which includes a unit for underage mothers with children, I will break down at work the various dilemmas associated with working with this target group. The dilemma itself may be whether pregnant underage girls should be placed in institutions of institutional education, whether they are competent to care for their child when they are still children themselves. They have behavioural problems, some of them also suffer from psychiatric disorders, are or have been drug users. They have different value orientations. Social workers in institutional education deal with various dilemmas, it is (according to Matthew): formalisation and deformation, professionalisation and deprofessionalisation, normalisation and abnormality, assistance and social control, polyvalence and specialisation. In Musil's view, complex or simplified objectives can be addressed, neutrality or favoritism, procedural or situational approach, material or non-material assistance, intervention or non-intervention. The work will be complemented by ethical theories that can help a social worker make decisions.

Isolationism in IR
Mgeladze, Shota ; Kofroň, Jan (advisor) ; Mičko, Branislav (referee)
This thesis focuses on analyzing the phenomenon of isolationism by testing the IR theories. The research examines the four historical cases of Ming and Qing Imperial China, Tokugawa's Japan, Great Britain under the Gladstone and Disraeli's stewardship, and finally, the U.S. behavior throughout the 1930s. The study distinguishes between the whole and limited isolationism, arguing that it is impossible to pursue complete isolationism due to globalization, interdependence, domestic constraints, and other factors. Furthermore, by explaining the phenomenon, neoclassical realism appears to best grasp the full image. Finally, by comparing the cases of American state behavior in the 1930s and under Donald Trump's presidency, the paper argues that the latter's policy should not be considered isolationist.

The New Middle Age: Theory of Irregular
Doboš, Bohumil ; Riegl, Martin (advisor) ; Romancov, Michael (referee)
Thesis deals with the issue of the conceptualization of the post-Westphalia world system by using the New Middle Age theory with focus on its geopolitical aspects. First the theoretical concepts concerning state, sovereignty, and the basis of the neomedievalist world view are tackled. After creating a theoretical tool to assess the appearance of the neomedieval world order we apply the criteria on four selected case studies - Somalia as an example of failed state, Pakistan as failing state, the European Union as a supra-state entity, and the People's Democratic Republic of Korea as a classical example of Westphalia-type state. In the conclusion the four case studies are brought together and our findings lead to the creation of an analytical tool which can be used for understanding basic geopolitical issues of different territories.
