Israel and Czechoslovakia: RFE/RL on the relations of the two countries, 1967-1971
This thesis deals with the relations between Czechoslovakia and Israel in 1967-1971. It is specifically concerned with anti-Zionist policies of the socialist regime, which reflected themselves not only in the anti-Israeli stance of Czechoslovakia, but also in the relations of state authorities towards Jewish minority, and bore antisemitic characteristics. Contrary to lasting rigorous refusal of antisemitism since 1940s/50s, Czechoslovakia manifested its hostility towards Israel on regular basis. Struggle against Zionism was one of the aims of the Czechoslovak ideological war against alleged or real adversaries. For the regime, Israel represented West, and West was full of so called centres of ideological diversion. One of such centres was also Radio Free Europe (RFE). Author of the thesis assumes that RFE not only reflected the ideological struggle concerning Jews and "Zionists," in Czechoslovakia, but also played a role of a counter-balancing force in the matter. By means of analysis of RFE situation reports, the thesis evaluates the extent of RFE counter-balance of the Czechoslovak anti-Zionist ideology. After theoretical introduction (chapter one), changes in the relations of Czechoslovakia towards Israel and local Jewish community in 1945-1967 are described. Second chapter also debates tension..

Konkrétne sa venuje antisionistickej doktríne socialistického režimu, ktorá sa okrem proti-izraelského postoja ČSSR odrážala aj vo vzťahu oficiálnych miest k vlastnému židovskému obyvateľstvu, a vyznačovala antisemitskými prvkami. Na rozdiel od striktného odmietania antisemitizmu sa Československo od prelomu 40. a 50. rokov 20. storočia netajilo nepriateľským postojom k židovskému štátu na Blízkom východe. Boj proti sionizmu bol jedným z cieľov ideovej vojny ČSSR so svojimi skutočnými či údajnými nepriateľmi. Izrael predstavoval pre československý režim Západ a Západ bol plný tzv. centier ideologickej diverzie. Jedným z nich bola aj rozhlasová organizácia Slobodná Európa (RFE). Autorka vychádza z predpokladu, že RFE ideový boj Československa nielen reflektovalo, ale vytváralo preň aj určitý protipól. Prostredníctvom analýzy situačných správ RFE v kontexte stanoveného obdobia práca hodnotí mieru úlohy RFE ako protipólu československej antisionistickej ideológie. Po teoretickom úvode práce (1. kapitola) autorka popisuje premeny vzťahu Československa k Izraelu a k vlastnej židovskej menšine medzi rokmi 1945-1967, a poukazuje na napätie medzi antisionizmom a antisemitizmom ako takým (2. kapitola).

Diasporas and democratization in the post-communist world
If diaspora communities are socialized with democratic values in Western societies, they could be expected to be sympathetic to the democratization of their home countries. However, there is a high degree of variation in their behavior. Contrary to the predominant understanding in the literature that diasporas act in exclusively nationalist ways, this article argues that they do engage with the democratization of their home countries. Various challenges to the sovereignty of their homelands explain whether diasporas involve with procedural or liberal aspects of democratization. Drawing evidence from the activities of the Ukrainian, Serbian, Albanian and Armenian diasporas after the end of communism, I argue that unless diasporas are linked to home countries that enjoy both international legal and domestic sovereignty, they will involve only with procedural aspects of democratization. Diasporas filter international pressure to democratize post-communist societies by utilizing democratic procedures to advance unresolved nationalist goals
