Zoul, Zdeněk ; Rod, Aleš (advisor) ; Čermáková, Klára (referee)
Thesis examines influence of unemployment on the electoral results of extremistic and radical parties in parliamentary elections in several European countries from 2000 to 2010. By using fixed effects model on panel data collected on regional level it was found that in Czech Republic, Hungary and Spain higher levels of unemployment lead to higher elactoral success of radical and extremistic parties. However in Greece and Slovakia such a influence turned out as insignificant. Also hypothesis of typical voter of such parties was tested. It is commonly accepted that typical voter of extremistic parties is young man with lower education. This hypothesis can't be confirmed in any of examined countries.
