The dissertation submitted aims at forming a political portrait of JUDr Jiří Branžovský (1898-1955), an important representative of the extreme right-wing political scene during the so called First Czechoslovak Republic.

Neonazism in Late Socialist Czechoslovakia
Polák, Michael ; Pullmann, Michal (advisor) ; Spurný, Matěj (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to map the presence of pro-fascist movements, pro- fascist ideas and their manifestations in Czechoslovakia during the second decade of the period of normalization. The basic task of the thesis aims to discover whether the followers of Nazi and fascist values existed in Czechoslovakia in the eighties, what was the profile of the people involved, what was the main motive of inspiration in the neo-Nazi themes, whether these motives represented a symbolic protest against the establishment or carried a projection of a fascist / neo-Nazi social change, furthermore where this inspiration came from (whether the transfer of ideas from the west occurred). The thesis will therefore analyse the social profile of individuals and groups tending to neo-Nazism, their social origin, motivation for neo-Nazi activities and beliefs, and the relationship between governance structure and other social classes of the Czech and Slovak society. This research aims to contribute to a better understanding of the character of the normalisation period and the opposing groups. The general term of passive oppressed people doesn't apply to the supporters of the neo-Nazi ideology, nor would you describe them as the heroic warriors against the regime. Reaserching their specific position should...

Historical Argumentation in the Russian Information Warfare in Ukraine between 2014-2016
Vaidišová, Natálie ; Kolenovská, Daniela (advisor) ; Šír, Jan (referee)
This bachelor thesis examines Russia's presentation of historical arguments in the information war in Ukraine between 2014-2016 and focuses on the methods and degree of Russia's manipulation of historical arguments. The work reviews the content of a pro-Russian website Russkaya Vesna, which targets Ukrainians. The thesis centres around two historical eras - World War II and the Soviet Union era. When describing events related to WW2, the website adopts a condemning narrative, labelling the UIA, OUN and Stepan Bandera as "fascist", which is examined in the first chapter of the thesis. In its evaluation of the Soviet era, the "soviet nostalgia" phenomenon is put under examination and the ways in which Russia encouraged this nostalgia are being focused on. Based on this research, the thesis proves that between the years 2014-2016, the informational sphere represented a substantial part of the Russian-Ukrainian war, and that the Russian government actively used misleading historical arguments to bolster pro-Russian attitudes in the people of Ukraine.
