Kloučková, Klára ; Charvát, Jan (advisor) ; Halamka, Tomáš (referee)
The topic of the conservative revolution and the German New Right is one of the less explored topics in the Czech academic environment. The personality of Armin Mohler, who is one of the spiritual fathers of the German New Right, offers a space for finding and understanding the essential ideas that influence the German New Right to this day. The aim of this thesis is therefore to describe key concepts of Mohler's thought in his first and influential work, The Conservative Revolution in Deutschland 1918-1932. At the same time, the thesis seeks to show the moments in which Mohler straddles the line between conservatism and right- wing extremism. The analysis of this borderline relies on the key concepts of conservatism and right-wing extremism, which are described in the first section. The second part already focuses specifically on the key concepts of Mohler's work. Firstly, Mohler's understanding of what a conservative revolution is in general is explained, and it is at this point that the borderline under investigation can already be traced. Next, the thesis identifies concepts such as nation, race, and empire, and it also looks at the militarism and militant thought of the conservative revolution and the groups that represent a non-negligible part of the conservative revolution. For all of these...

The Influence of Asylum Discussion on Attacks against Immigrants in Federal Republic Germany in the Years 1992 - 1993: Cases Mölln und Solingen
Judová, Kateřina ; Dimitrov, Michal (advisor) ; Nigrin, Tomáš (referee)
The wave of attacks against national minorities in the Federal Republic of Germany in the first years after The German reunification in 1990 became on the background of asylum debate discussing the necessary change of asylum right and influx of asylum seekers a burning problem. The culmination of moods against migrants was the attack in Mölln in November 1992, where were 3 persons of Turkish origin killed. The amendment of law was passed in German Bundestag on 26th May 1993 and came into force on 1st July 1993. However the approved restriction of gaining the asylum didn't discourage the right-wing extremists and before coming into force they committed one of the most terrific arson attacks in Solingen on 29th Mai 1993, which entered in the German post- war history as the one with the most victims at all. The thesis compares these two attacks on the basis of propositions from Karapin's study ,,Antiminority Riots in Unified Germany: Cultural Conflicts und Mischanneled Political Participation'' in order to determine possible causes or preconditions for the emergence of attacks. At the conclusion, the probability of an attack in a democratizing society is where ethnic minorities are not socially integrated and the cooperation between the two ethnic groups does not function or solve mutual problems...

The Influence of Asylum Discussion on Attacks against Immigrants in Federal Republic Germany in the Years 1992 - 1993: Cases Mölln und Solingen
Judová, Kateřina ; Dimitrov, Michal (advisor) ; Janura, Lukáš (referee)
The wave of attacks against national minorities in the Federal Republic of Germany in the first years after The German reunification in 1990 became on the background of asylum debate discussing the necessary change of asylum right and influx of asylum seekers became a burning problem. The culmination of moods against migrants was the attack in Mölln in November 1992, where were 3 persons of Turkish origin killed. The reactions were massive demonstrations all over Germany and finally an effort of political parties to give in their strict attitudes and agree on the amendment of asylum right. On 6th December 1992 CDU/CSU and SPD agreed on so called Asylkompromiss that should stop the influx of asylum seekers but still should keep the right of asylum and from that almost all the parties expected the end of the aggression against immigrants. The amendment of law was passed in German Bundestag on 26th May 1993and came into force on 1st July 1993. However the approved restriction of gaining the asylum didn't discourage the right-wing extremists and before coming into force they committed one of the most terrific arson attacks in Solingen on 29th Mai 1993, which entered in the German post-war history as the one with the most victims at all. The thesis comes to the conclusion that the influence of media had...

Right-wing extremism and its legal consequences under Nazism and today
Šimonek, Patrik ; Kosek, Jan (advisor) ; Ondřejková, Jana (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the influence of right-wing extremism on the legal order and compares the consequences that activities of right-wing extremists had and have on the law. The basic principles of right-wing extremism, as well as the basic theses on which right-wing extremist ideologies are based, are described in the diploma thesis. The diploma thesis "Right- wing extremism and its legal consequences under Nazism and today" is divided into ten chapters and a conclusion and discusses the manifestations of tribal nationalism in the legal order of Nazi Germany and describes the implementation of Nazi legislation in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. The attention is also paid to the development of national particularism, its ideas and to the idea of national exceptionality. However, the idea of national exceptionality puts the unexceptional "others" on the opposite pole of the same axis and subsequently leads to their discrimination and persecution. The law then becomes the perfect tool to discriminate against and persecute these "others". Main attention is thus paid to racial legislation of the Nazi Germany, which were based on conclusions of eugenics "scientists" of the time. The diploma thesis therefore in detail discusses the Nuremberg Laws, as well as other subsequent by-laws,...
