Concepts of theories of secession and their application at case studies of South African bantustans and Katanga
 Kotlanová, Veronika ; Riegl, Martin (advisor) ; Romancov, Michael (referee)
The topics of the thesis, "Concepts of Theories of Secession and Their Application on the Case of Independence of South African Homelands and Congolese Katanga", are the most important theoretical concepts of secession. The beginning of the first part deals with issues closely related to the secession, e.g. the state and its definitions in the field of political science or constitution of new political units in the system of international law. The main part is focused on the discussion between two dominant schools - Primary Right and Remedial Right theories. This paper primarily proceeds from the classification of the theories of secession by Allen Buchanan. To fully picture the intellectual development of thinking about secession, this paper also includes three modern approaches to the topic. The second part consists of two case studies, more specifically "Katanga's Secession from Newly Independent Congo in 1960" and "The Independence of South African Homelands". The aim of this section is to study the process of secession, but also to evaluate them through the perspective of different theories of secession as they were presented in the first part.

Transition to Democracy in South Africa and the role of the United Nations
 Jarolímová, Lucie ; Lisa, Aleš (advisor) ; Prorok, Vladimír (referee)
The apartheid regime represented the official state ideology in South Africa in the time period from 1948 to 1994. The diploma thesis deals with the issue of South Africa's transition to democracy, in particular, it focuses on the role which was played by the United Nations in this process. Its activities can be sorted out into three main phases. The first phase dated between the years 1948 -- 1966 can be distinguished mainly by the key role played by the General Assembly. The second phase which took place in the period 1967 -- 1989 was primarily focused on the international campaign against apartheid and on the adoption of economic sanctions. The final and the most recent phase occurred in the early 90s (1990 -- 1994) and could be characterized by the role of the UN as a mediator of peace negotiations.
