Pirate parties as liberal parties?
Kudrna, Pavel ; Brunclík, Miloš (advisor) ; Perottino, Michel (referee)
The diploma thesis aims to confirm whether Pirate parties are liberal and left-libertarian parties and that they are similar to green parties in this way. After 2006 Pirate parties emerged gradually as a new alternative to manage the politics and democracy in Western democracies. Pirates came up with themes such as the fight against copyright or the protection of individuals within the internet. In the first theoretical part of this thesis both liberalism and left-libertarianism as well as Green parties are discussed. The second empirical part deals with Pirate parties. First, their origin and development are described and, with an emphasis on Swedish, German, Icelandic and the Czech Pirate Party - because of their relevance associated with electoral successes -, basic elements of their programmes are introduced. Based on those findings the analysis confronting the elements of liberalism and left-libertarianism with programmes of Pirate parties is performed in the final section of the thesis. The hypothesis that Pirate parties are predominantly left-libertarian parties is proved. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

The Pirate movement phenomenon in the world and the Czech Republic
Dohnal, Jakub ; Šisler, Vít (advisor) ; Šlerka, Josef (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with history, foundation, principles and specific activities of Pirate parties in the world and the Czech Republic. In the beginning, author introduces history and context of the pirate movement, specifically by describing groups around hacking, free software or open access. Ideas of the Free Software Foundation founder, Richard Stallman and of the well-known American lawyer Lawrence Lessig are thoroughly described, since they work as a substance for the fundamental pirate principles, like freedom of information, privacy protection or copyright law revision. After defining selected information policies, author describes foundation and activities of the European Pirate parties. It lays emphasis on the first Pirates in Sweden, the successful German Pirate party, the problems of internet policy in France and on the European union topics, specifically the international ACTA treaty. In the final part, author introduces the history and information policy of the Czech Pirate party, which is compared with the information policy of the Czech Republic in the light of fundamental principles of the pirate movement.
