Care of the soul by Jan Patočka and its necessity in the constitution of humanity
KOUBA, Vojtěch
The work deals with the idea of caring of the soul, as presented by Jan Patočka and its necessity for the constitution of humanity, which seeks to do good on the personal, societal, and global, ecological level. The first part deals with the care of the soul by Socrates and in the Platonian polis, there are highlighted some concepts related to education of its guardians. Then there are described three existential movements, which Jan Patočka educes from the care of the soul and its three aspects. In another part is firstly implied relation between the care of the soul and philosophy, and then the original theme and herewith the aim of these two activities. The last part is an attempt to show how it can happen, that we are talking about ?succour from philosophy?, then how to use the care of the soul for we could see the world as our home and what the consequences will be there, when we don't care of the soul and instead we paying attention only to the exact knowledge of modern science.

Cyprus: the Crossroad between Europe and Asia
Smetáček, Martin ; Adamcová, Lenka (advisor) ; Němečková, Tereza (referee)
In my work I consider the cultural-political routing of Cyprus from its position between Europe and Asia with respect to its economical orientation. In the view of the fact that Cyprus was a profoundly developing country in the year 1960, when winning its independence from Great Britain, I focus mainly on its economic development after the year 1960 and the performance of the economy on the threshold of the 21st century, whereas I ask myself if Cyprus has already completed its transformation from a developing country into a socially and economically developed country with modern free market economy. The work briefly records the history of the country since its infancy in as early as 8th millennium BC up to the end of the 20th century AC, it further considers the economic development of Cyprus at the end of the 20th century, and finally it focuses on the current social-economic conditions in the country under the pattern of dividing economies between developing and developed countries. The work also regards the intercommunity rupture, which dominates Cyprus since 1974 and factually divides it in two parts: the Cyprus Republic and the internationally unrecognized Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. I accentuate exclusively the date regarding the Cyprus Republic.
