Migration waves in the Federal Republic of Germany between northern and southern states post 1989
Hamplová, Martina ; Pešek, Jiří (advisor) ; Nigrin, Tomáš (referee)
The rigorous thesis "Migration waves in the Federal Republic of Germany between northern and southern states post 1989" deals with internal migration and focuses on the citizens of Germany and their movement within the country after 1989. The main area of focus is the depopulation of the northern part of Germany and the related 4 immigration of specific migration groups to one of both southern German states. This rigorous thesis surveys the migration streams in this territory for the period between 1990 and 2008 and analyzes their influence on the demographic changes and transformations of the local socio- economic structure. In the theoretical section, the appropriate basic terms relating to the area of migration research are explained. A concrete survey of migration streams between northern and southern Gemany is introduced in two case studies. The first deals with the northern state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Using this example, the problems of depopulation in the north of Germany are discussed. Whilst considering the importance of these problems, the consequences of migration for this state and the attitude of the local policy surrounding this issue are described. Representative of the southern part of Germany, the state of Baden-Württemberg is introduced whose population has been growing...

Financing of "Aufbau Ost" Programme: Solidarity Pact II - Key Issues and Current Discussions
Zientková, Dominika ; Kučera, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Mlsna, Petr (referee)
The thesis deals with an issue of financing German Unity, curentlly through solidarity pact II. Shortly after the reunification of Germany in 1990 it was obvious that the process of equalizing the economic levels of both parts of Germany required high financial transfers. And so the ambitious project called the economic reconstruction of eastern Germany (Aufbau Ost) was launched in order to provide eastern Germany the needed financial sources. Today it is done through the so called solidarity pact II. The aim of this thesis is to find out how two economically different developed federal states (Saxony and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) were gaining and using those financial sources during a specified period. Another aim is to analyze the ways of usage, to identify the unusualness and also to find the cause of criticism that comes from the western old federal states. On the basis of the analysis of the gaining financial recourses by Saxony and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern emerged partly interesting findings. Both states, although they have many differences, invest in a similar way, especially into the infrastructural deficits. Opposite to that, they do not invest that much into the equalization of disproportional financial power of municipalities. This fact is one of the reasons why the old federal states...

Obotrite Proces of State-forming in Central European Dimension (789-1178)
Tomášek, Jan ; Žemlička, Josef (advisor) ; Klápště, Jan (referee)
Key Words Polabian Slavs, Polabian area, Obodrite, Populus, Gens, Nacio, State, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Obotritic confederation tribes Abstract The thesis analyses and interprets the key events in the state-forming process of so-called Obotritic confederation tribes in 789 - 1178. It focuses on the analysis of written sources, which serve as a basis for three models of inter-tribal units in Polabian area. The thesis argues against the traditional evolutionistic point of view, which considers the confederation tribes to be the predecessors of early medieval states. The main focus of the analysis is put on the starting point form which the Obotritic state-forming process originated. The main question is whether the Obodrite, upon their first appearance in written history, were more federation of tribes or one large tribe, whose break-up at the turn of 9th and 10th century started a new phase of the process. For the next period, the thesis introduces unique model of so-called tribal state, created by the combined effects of various factors, such as location, political situation, social changes in 11th and 12th century etc. The inner and outer factors that lead to the break-up of the Obotritic tribe state in 1270s are discussed in the same manner. The last part of the thesis is an analysis of later...
