This thesis explored party-based Euroscepticism in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. Euroscepticism is a growing phenomenon, and more importantly, it is moving from the periphery into mainstream political life. Twenty years anniversary of the Czech Republic and Slovakia entering the European Union is coming up next year, and it seems that two decades in the Union left a negative imprint on the population that was once excited about entering a new era. Seeing as the majority of research and categorization of Eurosceptic political movements in Slovakia and the Czech Republic was conducted around the accession period (2004), we decided to compare current Eurosceptic political parties in Slovakia and the Czech Republic in terms of the magnitude (soft/hard Euroscepticism) of and motivations for their scepticism (ideologically vs. strategically driven) and position them within the Eurosceptic space (as defined by Jan Rovny in 2004). We categorized eight Eurosceptic political parties which gained seats in at least one of the two last legislative elections, four Slovak parties (elections in 2016 and 2020) and four Czech Eurosceptic parties (elections in 2017 and 2021).

The attitudes about each of these areas of the following political parties are defined: Bohemian nobility, National Party (till 1874) or Old Czechs (since then), Young Czechs, Social Democrats, Agrarians, Catholic parties, National Socialists, Progress parties and parties of the Radical State Right, Realists and Anarchists.

The Evaluation of Local/Regional Authority Activities in the Case of Ústecký region and Chomutov District
Hellebrandová, Lenka ; Tomeš, Jiří (advisor) ; Šlajchrt, Martin (referee)
This work deals with the issue of governance at the local level in selected municipalities in Ústecký region. Evaluating of governance in selected municipalities is based on analysis of their economy for the period 2002 - 2010. The emphasis is put on the success of municipalities in raising funds and solving problems of this region (unemployment, decline in industrial production, poor educational structure). These facts are confronted with the actual composition of councils and there are investigated differences between the access to the problems of individual municipalities or the governing political parties. Small municipalities are faced with a lack of funds, which leads to significant indebtedness. By contrast large cities are successful in obtaining grants from the EU and can fund various projects. Most of the investigated municipalities invested in building of sports and cultural centres instead supporting the active employment policy.
