Depiction of "Bloody Sunday" in the periodical press
Mrázková, Tina ; Bednařík, Petr (advisor) ; Francová, Pavla (referee)
This work analyses newspaper articles concerning the conflict between the catholic and the protestant communities of Northern Ireland and the event of January 30th 1972, which is commonly referred to as the "Bloody Sunday". The work is based on articles released by the Czechoslovak periodical press concerning the period between one month before the Bloody Sunday and one month after the event. This means articles released in January and February of 1972 were concerned. More precisely, articles printed in three national daily newspapers at that time were selected for the analysis: Rudé právo, Mladá fronta and Svobodné slovo. I will focus on how the Communist press reported about the events in Northern Ireland and place it into context with the political situation at that time on both the domestic and international level. An introduction to the regional history of Northern Ireland and a description of the events taking place on January 30th 1972 are a part of this thesis. Furthermore, I also depict how the Czechoslovak press conducted their activities in the 1970s, a period affected by both social and political changes referred to as the Normalisation. The aim of the analysis of the periodical press is manifold. First of all, I present the official stance adopted by the Czechoslovak Communist regime...

The Irish Conflict, An Example of Violent Conflict within Christianity
KENDALLOVÁ, Jitka
The Bachelor dissertation focuses on the problem of the conflict between Protestants and Catholics in Ireland. Special attention is drawn to the situation in the province of Ulster. The work focuses on two crucial issues. Firstly the systematic repression of the rights of minority groups and the inability by formally declared democracy to prevent violence in the face of the majority in a modern country like Great Britain. Secondly with reference to a particular Northern-Irish conflict it focuses on the problem of using religion for asserting political aims. Both of these problems lead to a municipal problem which is the relationship between religion, politics and society in 20th century. Analysis comes partly from reflection of the historical formation of the conflict. The conflict itself as a specific social phenomenon is examined with reference to the common theory of conflict of Ralf Dahrendorf. The problematic relationship between politics, religion and violence is examined with reference to the sociological concept of Mark Juergensmeyer and Max Weber and the concept of Christian ethics.
