Žižková, Silvie ; Stauber, Jakub (advisor) ; Hájek, Lukáš (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the degree of fulfilment of verifiable promises from the election programmes presented to the Czech citizens in the 2017 elections to the Chamber of Deputies.

The success rate of implementing voting programs by the government parties in the years 2018-2021
Regner, Jakub ; Hájek, Lukáš (advisor) ; Perottino, Michel (referee)
This bachelor thesis aims to determine to what extent the governing parties ANO and ČSSD managed to fulfil their 2017 election programmes during the 2018-2021 electoral period. From the text of the election programmes, pledges were identified through content analysis, and each pledge was assigned to a category according to a thematic area. The results of the research showed that the ANO movement managed to fulfil 55% of all testable promises, while the ČSSD fulfilled only 36% of the promises from its election programme. The results also confirm the hypothesis based on the theoretical assumption of the functioning of the party mandate model in developed democracies, where holding the prime minister's seat leads to a higher rate of fulfilment of the electoral programme. It is this positive effect that has not been confirmed in the cases of previous elections. The paper identifies the covid-19 pandemic as one of the external factors that could have significantly affected the number of promises fulfilled.
