Ihnátová, Ivana ; Peterková, Jana (advisor) ; Jeřábek, Petr (referee)
The main topic of the bachelor thesis is the cultural diplomacy of Slovakia during its Presidency of the EU Council, which was held in the second half of 2016. Despite the difficult task and challenge the Presidency was for Slovakia, it also gave it the opportunity to present its art and culture to a wider audience and to be more seen on the international scene. Therefore, the aim of the thesis is to characterize cultural diplomacy during the Slovak Presidency, to describe its individual activities, the cultural program and to evaluate its overall success. The first chapter of the thesis deals with the very concept of cultural diplomacy, its definition, the placement of cultural diplomacy in the system of foreign cultural policy, the relationship between cultural and public diplomacy, etc. The second chapter focuses on the cultural diplomacy of Slovakia, its actors, strategy and tools. In addition, it points out the difference between the cultural diplomacy of small and large states. The third part eventually deals with the cultural diplomacy of Slovakia within the Presidency of the Council of the EU.
