The Concept of Autonomy : (conditions of modern subjectivity and historicity of the concept of law)
Janoščík, Václav ; Kühn, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Maršálek, Pavel (referee)
of the diploma thesis Janoščík Václav The Concept of Autonomy (Conditions of modern subjectivity, of the concept of law and of historicity) Submitted thesis aims at articulation of the concept of autonomy in its complexity. At first it pursues specific contexts of the notion to arrive at its structure. At first we try to explore prospective of analytical philosophy of law to situate the concept of autonomy to the heart of the idea of law. This efforts unfolds itself by an unorthodox interpretation of natural right theory of Herbert Hart's early work. Second chapter discusses the framework of the philosophy of history, that are based on the idea of an autonomous subject. Seemingly paradoxical linkage of Heidegger's fundamental ontology and Kosík's dialectics of the particular articulates the historical function of the autonomy. Next chapter connects Kosík with Cornelius Castoriadis in the perspective of social theories. Also in their normative core we can identify our notion of autonomy. Fourth chapter follows the theory of disenchantment of the world of Marcel Gauchet. We reformulate it as a realization of the ideal of autonomous subject in order to contextualize the concept historically. Last topic of the first part is the framework of the intellectual history. Here we situate Dieter Henrich and...

Also included is a contextualization of the period as well as the prerequisites of the Enlightenment thought, which precede the actual analysis of the works of Enlightenment thinkers. The prerequisites shall be understood as the philosophical works of John Locke and René Descartes.

The importance of the American Revolution in John Quincy Adams's work
MACH, Tomáš
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to analyse the importance of the American Revolution in John Quincy Adams's work. The following test focuses on his printed speeches used on the occasion of Independence Day and the anniversary of the ratification of the United States Constitution. The next primary source analysed would be an essay written by Friedrich Gentz (a German conservative), which was translated into English by Adams. Thus, the main goal of this thesis is to analyse, interpret and compare previously mentioned sources. Besides that the following work should also deal with the role of providencialism in the interpretation of historical events as witnessed by participants of the American Revolution. All that ought to be elaborated with a help of literary and other sources.
