The current form of zoos has always reflected various economic, political, environmental and cultural aspects, or opinion and spatial changes of society.

The analytical part of the thesis is divided into two levels. Using a quantitative content analysis of programmes, based on the method of the Comparative Manifesto research group, although heavily modified for the purposes of the work, the thematic content of security is mapped, the representation of specific themes across the programmes, as well as the amount of space and, hence, the attention devoted by individual parties to security topics. The analysis found that the dominant security issues in the programmes of the observed parties were Army and Defense, Migration, Migration Crisis and Asylum Policy, and finally Internal Order and Security. The second level of the content analysis is of qualitative nature and through the lens...
