Causes of conflict in Africa. The case of the Democratic Republic of Congo
Hanková, Barbora ; Werkman, Kateřina (advisor) ; Ditrych, Ondřej (referee)
This thesis aims to explore selected theoretical approaches investigating the causes of conflicts on the African continent and then try to apply it to the particular case of the Democratic Republic of Congo and its second war, running from 1998-2003, and then assess the impact of each selected causes of this particular Congolese conflict. This Work in the first chapters outlines the chosen theories related to the causes of armed conflicts in Africa, focusing on three selected causes of conflict: natural resources, ethnicity and weak state. These chapters are theoretical basis for the analysis found in the final chapter. It then evaluates the impact of chosen variables on the outbreak of the Congolese war. Based on the analysis the author draws the following conclusions: 1st the main cause of the second war in the DRC, running in the years 1998 - 2003, can be considered as raw materials, or the efforts of rebel groups and neighboring countries to control and subsequent illegal mining of mineral wealth of The Congo; 2nd although ethnic factors are not the main cause of the second Congolese war, their impact on the conflict, especially in the early days of the conflict is obvious; 3rd nature of the State, namely the weakness of the Government of DRC, ranked according to key indicators, turns out to be the most...

Looking for Weak States of RC4 by Means of Waiting Tables
Čížek, Jan ; Drápal, Aleš (advisor) ; Boháček, Milan (referee)
AbstractEN.txt 07/23/2018 09:51:19 AM Page 1 of 1 Waiting Tables were introduced by Drápal and Hojsík in 2006 to study weak states of the stream cipher RC4. This thesis revisits Waiting Tables and some of their most important properties. An equivalent model from graph theory, called Waiting Paths, is established in this work and the equivalence of the two models is proved. Afterwards, Waiting Matrices are defined and used for the analysis of a subclass of Waiting Paths.
