The Fall of the United States as a Global Superpower
Vilímec, Tomáš ; Kozák, Kryštof (advisor) ; Ulík, Karel (referee)
The bachelor thesis The Fall of the United States as a Global Superpower examines the current position of the United States as the only world superpower. Since the end of the Cold War the United States of America is considered as the world hegemonic power. Nonetheless many circumstances have changed since then. The United states are obliged to finance the worldwide war against terrorism, they suffered the worst economic recession since the Great depression and their relations with other countries including their allies are not as bright as they used to be. Moreover their position is no longer unchallenged by other countries. Probably the most visible competitor is China which amazes the whole world by its powerful economic growth. Also other countries are experiencing their steep rise into the position of world power. This thesis will investigate separately the military, economic and political power of the United States and will try to answer whether the hypothetical decline of the United States could be real or not.

The factor of power in the international trade and in the international relations
Sheretova, Maria ; Zamykalová, Miroslava (advisor) ; Fireš, Adam (referee)
The topic of my bachelor's thesis is the issue of the factor of power in the international trade and in the international relations. The international trade began to develop intensively in the 19th century. The rate of development of the international trade started to anticipate the pace of world production. However, the power played its unique role long before, thus was one of the major instruments of influence on the state. Till today objectives are achieved with this power. The fundamental concept of theory of the power is often associated with military force, although in modern conditions the effort of the states to find diplomatic solutions for solving the problems without application of military force is growing increasingly. The subject mentioned above can be reviewed from different angles, so I would like to focus particularly on the definition and the concept of division of factor of the power in the international trade and in the international relations.
