The destinies of the Jewish population during the transports from Ostrava in 1939-1945
Grögerová, Anetta ; Roginer Hofmeister, Karin (advisor) ; Heroldová, Karolína (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with a regional-historical topic in connection with the Jewish transports from Ostrava in 1939-1945. The main aim of the thesis is to analyse selected testimonies of the survivors of the transports, the process of these deportations and to provide a missing insight into this region-specific and historical phenomenon. Above all, emphasis is placed on a neglected chapter of history, i.e. the very first transport of European Jews, which departed from the Ostrava railway station in 1939. And then the work deals with the transports to the Terezín ghetto between 1942 and 1945. A combination of classical identification of the subject matter using academic literature and recorded audio-visual interviews is used for this examination and subsequent comparison, drawing on the contents of the historical visual archive supported by the USC Shoah Foundation, thanks to access from the Malach Center for Visual History.

Constable, Marika ; Fošum, Jan (advisor) ; Sousedík, Prokop (referee)
The presented master's thesis examines experiments on humans conducted in Nazi concentration camps during WWII and focuses on the conflict between the victims on one side and scientists on the other. In this conflict, which is centered around the fate of the data, both sides take a strong stand. The criteria for an ethical evaluation is to objectively articulate the main argumentation pillars from both sides and assess their validity in the contrast of two ethical theories which are virtue theory and the theory of consequentialism. To reach this objective, the thesis draws from available literal and audio-visual sources from the fields of history, philosophy, psychology, anthropology and bioethics.
