Assesment of the Effectiveness of Economic Sanctions: The Cases of Iran and North Korea
 Hába, Tomáš ; Ditrych, Ondřej (advisor) ; Plášek, David (referee)
This thesis examines the apparent discrepancy in success between Iran and North Korea when it comes to developing nuclear weapons. Both states at one time sought to acquire nuclear weapons for internal political and external security reasons. But whereas North Korea successfully detonated its first atomic bomb in 2006, Iran was pressured into an agreement in 2015 which put significant restraints on its nuclear programme. This thesis finds that there were multiple contributory factors that lay behind these differing outcomes. Specifically, it finds that while both nations had similar motivations to acquire nuclear weapons, their economic/military capabilities and the external pressure against their ambition differed in one case from the other. The ability of North Korea to deter a potential military attack from the United States together with the regime's ability to rely on its Chinese and South Korean partners for diplomatic protection as well as its own brutality towards its own population played the key role.

 Zálešáková, Adéla ; Veselý, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Eichler, Jan (referee)
This Bachelor thesis deals with response of the International Community to Iraq´s annexation of Kuwait in 1990. It focuses on cooperation among states of the international coalition during the whole operation. The theoretical part deals with international affairs at the turn of 80s and 90s of the 20th century and conflict solution at that time. It is followed by a chapter describing the situation in Iraq during the Gulf crisis since the Iran-Iraq war up to the annexation of Kuwait. This part provides important information for understanding the events that occurred after the annexation of Kuwait. The third chapter describes the response of the International Community to the Iraqi aggression in Kuwait. It answers the research question, that on the basis of cooperation during the Iraq war, we can prove that the cohesion among countries can be successful and effective.
