Kvítková, Alena ; Šafařík, Petr (advisor) ; Lizcová, Zuzana (referee)
The master thesis Czech and Slovak media representation of the dissolution of Czechoslovakia is concerned with the way in which media portrayed the dissolution of Czechoslovakia. Through the analysis of articles on the topic in question it examines the media image created by each newspaper respectively, by Czech and Slovak newspapers as two units and the overall image based on all of the collected data. Three Czech (Mladá fronta DNES, Rudé právo and Blesk) and three Slovak (Smena, Pravda and Nový Čas) newspapers served as the source for the analysis. Articles from two periods were collected - from the time the act on the dissolution of Czechoslovakia was passed and from the time the actual dissolution took place. The aim is to establish the overall media image of the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, but also to compare and contrast the image created by Czech and Slovak newspapers and to study their differences concerning the overall positive, negative or neutral image as well as the implemented media frames. In addition, the thesis also focuses on the different portrayal of the dissolution in right-wing and left-wing newspapers and broadsheet and tabloid press. The final confrontation of the results with public opinion surveys is also important as it proves the connection between the media agenda and...

Doležalová, Kateřina ; Šmíd, Marek (advisor) ; Beneš, Zdeněk (referee)
President Vaclav Havel's attitude to the division of Czechoslovakia in years 1992/1993. The Bachelor thesis is focused on the Vaclav Havel's attitude to the main events of the 1990s, especially the division of Czechoslovakia, in the context of the major events from 1989 to 1993. There is the focus on events after November 1989, the commencement of the opposition movement, Civic Forum, thanks to which Vaclav Havel came to the force. Vaclav Havel progressively became a prominent person who was the speaker of the whole society. Afterwards Vaclav Havel was elected president, he made a contribution to the transition to a democratic system of government. There is also described the process of changing the name of the state, which has proven to be one of the most difficult to resolve disputes between Czechs and Slovaks, like that the controversy over the Competence Act and the contract between the Czech and Slovak Republics, which are also analyzed in this work. I also consistently described the parliamentary elections of June 1992, the results of which led to the division of Czechoslovakia and the presidential elections, held in early July 1992, including a large number of comments from newspapers of the time.

The Division of Czechoslovakia - Views of People from the Border Area - the Zlín Region versus the Trenčín Region
Lukáš, Roman ; Mücke, Pavel (advisor) ; Houda, Přemysl (referee)
The first, theoretic, part of my thesis is based on the historical analysis of mutual relationships of Czech and Slovak people in the common country up to the year of 1992. The thesis also takes into consideration the outcomes of recent researches in fields of political sciences, sociology and other social disciplines to produce the most accurate description of the situation that preceded the break-up of 1992/1993 itself. The second, research, part of my thesis is effected by the method of oral history. Its aim is to investigate the opinions, views and experiences of various Czech and Slovak border citizens in the first half of the 90's in view of both the political development during dividing the Federation and the impact of the break-up on their daily lives - a new state line in proximity of their homes, establishment of border crossings and customs, changes in shopping habits, problems connected with work on the other side of the border line, visiting friends or organizing common events, school trips and the newly introduced problematics of people smuggling. It also aims to reflect the possible change of mind of some people toward the division.
