Libayová, Barbora ; Just, Petr (advisor) ; Osvaldová, Barbora (referee)
The political situation in Slovakia has undergone several significant changes since the murder of journalist Ján Kuciak in 2018. In a short period of time, there was the resignation of the long- time Prime Minister Robert Fico, the split of the Smer-SD party, the election of the former opposition government headed by Igor Matovič, which was marked not only by the pandemic and the beginning of the war in Ukraine, but also by chaos, until its fall and the establishment of the government of experts. This led Slovakia to early parliamentary elections in 2023, which to a large extent polarized society. This thesis is therefore devoted to the media image of these elections in four Czech media, idnes.cz, aktualne.cz, echo24.cz and denikn.cz, which reported on the event in considerable detail. It provides a detailed description of the political situation, changes in the party system and post-election events from the murder to the post-election period. Using a quantitative content analysis, it answers the questions of coverage and representation of political parties in the Czech media, where the Smer party was represented to up to 50 percent, and in a qualitative framing analysis it describes the most frequently occurring contexts in which the media reported on the topic, pointing out the frequent...

Novajovská, Michaela ; Bednařík, Petr (advisor) ; Štoll, Martin (referee)
The aim of this work is to highlight the films that were released in the 1950s and received the nickname propagandistic films, when all films were based on the doctrine of the socialist regime. During this period, twenty-nine feature films were released in Slovakia, and three will be examined in more detail in this work: Priehrada, Pole neorané, and Drevená dedina. Each is from a different well-known director active during these years. The theoretical part focuses exclusively on propaganda itself and its purpose in the film. The goal of this section is to identify specific propaganda elements in films in Slovakia. It aims to introduce the work of directors working during that period and their works released under the auspices of the Soviet Union. The aim of the practical part of the bachelor thesis is to use film analysis to identify these elements directly in selected films, to highlight the required norms in specific film scenes, and to analyse the characteristic features of construction films.

The thesis is devoted to a detailed analysis of the impact of the Russian information war on the Slovak information environment. Emphasis is placed on current data in this area and the thesis focuses on information operations after 2022. The themes and narratives that Russia uses for influence in its information warfare are examined. The aim is to provide a comprehensive picture of what themes and narratives Russia is using to manipulate the Slovak audience and a framework to analyze these attacks. Using this framework, it is possible to examine the themes of Russian disinformation in Slovakia and the goals that Russia may pursue through these information operations. The thesis also provides a theoretical foundation on information warfare, its development in the Russian Federation, and the main themes of its current form. In the practical part, the theoretical knowledge will be applied to the analysis of two specific cases of information operations from the period of the election campaign in Slovakia in 2023. The methodological approach includes a content analysis of Slovak media, social networks, disinformation websites and platforms. This will be complemented with data from various opinion polls and academic studies of the Slovak information space.

Shaping IR discourse: the case of Telegram in Slovakia in the light of Russia-Ukraine war
Salíni, Michal ; Földes, Kristián (advisor) ; Martinková, Viera (referee)
Social media, such as Telegram, have been playing an increasingly important role in shaping the public discourse in Slovakia and abroad, including the issue of the perception of the main actors and practice of International Relations. This thesis explores the process of construction of identities of such actors in the most popular Telegram channels in Slovakia, which have been labelled as spreading disinformation or misinformation narratives, in the light of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Theoretical approaches entailing post-structuralist perception of IR, Mental Models, Social Identity Theory, and Symbolic Interactionism are employed to understand the role of the examined narratives in shaping the foreign policy perception in Slovak society. When it comes to methodology, Qualitative Content Analysis is employed to identify the narratives portraying individual actors and their occurrence. Secondly, features of the Discourse-Historical Approach, complemented by van Dijk's classification of analytical categories of discourse structures, are used to examine the discursive strategies the posts used to convey the message to the audience. The outcomes of the analysis show a rather high degree of occurrence of the war in Ukraine as a topic and pinpoint Russia and Ukraine as the most frequently...
