State resilience in post-Arab Spring setting
No full textDie Anfangsphase dieser Forschungsarbeit führte darauf hin, dass die einzigen Staaten, die relativ in der Lage wären, die Sicherheit und Stabilität in der Region Mittlerer Osten und Nordafrika bewahren zu können, Tunesien und Marokko seien. Jedoch blieb keiner der beiden von den jüngsten Veränderungen unbeeinflusst. Das Hauptziel dieser Arbeit ist es, herauszufinden und zu beschreiben wie stabil der tunesische Staat ist: entgegen hauptsächlich interne, aber zu einem bestimmten Grade auch externe destabilisierenden Faktoren. Die Forschungsbasis für diese Arbeit ist das Konzept der Politischen Settlements.
Zuerst werden die für die Politischen Settlements am meisten relevanten Akteure und Interessensgruppen der Gesellschaft bestimmt, dann wird individuell auf ihre Interessen eingegangen. Dazu gehören sowohl formale Institutionen, staatliche Einrichtungen und ihre besonderen Einheiten, als auch omnigesellschaftliche Organisationen, das Interesse der Privatwirtschaft, elitäre Gruppen, die die Stabilität des Politischen Settlements gefährden usw. Als Ausgangspunkt für die Analyse dient Parks und Coles Charakterisierung von Politischen Settlements, die auf vier Elementen basiert: Akteure, Macht, Interessen, Institutionen. Da der Konflikt und die daraus folgenden Veränderungen in der Region Nordafrika fortlaufend sind, sind Primärressourcen karg oder gänzlich nicht verfügbar. Nichtsdestotrotz befasst sich der Autor mit Thinktank-Analysen, Indexen und nationalen, regionalen und ausländischen Medienperspektiven um die Grundzüge der Politischen Settlements festzulegen.
Das System des Landes hat einen Punkt erreicht, an dem politische Parteien zwar wesentliche Träger des politischen Willens und der Prozesse sind, aber dabei nicht die einzigen sind. Der innere Einflussbereich hat Seite an Seite sowohl formale als auch informale Eliten entwickelt. Wie man der Forschungsarbeit entnehmen kann, zeigen die meisten Indikatoren schwerwiegende Bedenken gegenüber der Stabilität des Settlements auf. Diejenigen Indikatoren, die positive Aussichten aufzeigen, sind eher institutionellen Charakters und bleiben leider oft nur in Debatten und auf dem Papier bestehen.As it seemed in the initial stage of this research, the only countries, relatively capable of being the security and stability “guardians” of the Middle East and North African region could be Tunisia and Morocco. Yet, neither of them remained unaffected by the recent changes. The main goal of this work is to identify and describe the degree of resilience of Tunisian state: against mainly internal but to some degree also external destabilizing factors.
This thesis will research the topic based on the concept of political settlements. It will identify the core political settlement relevant actors and factions of society, then separately look at their interests. These encompass both formal institutions, state agencies and their special engagements, as well as omni-societal organizations, private sector interests, elite groups threatening the stability of the political settlement and so on. Parks and Cole, who represent a starting point for the analysis, characterize political settlements based on four elements: actors, power, interests, and institutions. The conflict and connected changes in the North African region are ongoing, primary sources might be therefore scarce or fairly unavailable. Nevertheless, the author will look into think-tanks’ analyses, indexes, and national, regional and foreign media perspectives to map the political settlements' outlines.
The country’s system reached a point where political parties are a major, although not the only, carrier of political will and process. The inner circle of influence has developed hand in hand with of both formal and informal elites, rather than exclusively amongst one of these. As one can see from the research, majority of the indicators show severe concerns over the resilience of the settlement. Those that show positive outlooks are rather of an institutional than informal character and, unfortunately, often remain only on paper

History and present of primary school in Karlštejn
No full textThis thesis explores the historical development of the elementary school in Karlštejn. It is historical in nature and divided into two parts. The goal of the theoretical part is to map the history of the primary school in Karlštejn. To facilitate an understanding of the connections between various pieces of information, the work also presents the history of the Karlštejn community, the region, and the legislative development of education in our territory. Given that the school in Karlštejn has been, and remains, a school with a small number of classes, the author considered it essential to include the history of small-class schools and their characteristics.

The author gathered all information from school and municipal chronicles that have been preserved and are stored in the State District Archive in Beroun, as well as from literature that has been published on these topics. The theoretical part supports the practical part, which is conducted as qualitative research based on the method of oral history. This includes interviews with former students, whose memories and subjective views help to paint a complete picture of the school's history. The..

History and present of primary school in Karlštejn
No full textTato diplomová práce se zabývá historickým vývojem základní školy v Karlštejně. Práce je historického charakteru a je rozdělena do dvou částí. Cílem teoretické části je zmapování historie primární školy v Karlštejně. Pro chápání souvislostí mezi různými informacemi je v práci uvedena také historie obce Karlštejna, regionu a legislativní vývoj školství na našem území. Jelikož škola v Karlštejně byla, a doposud je, školou málotřídní, považovala autorka za nezbytné uvést v práci současně historii málotřídních škol a jejich specifika. Dále se pak teoretická část věnuje bližšímu zkoumání kritérií, které autorka vybrala na základě jejich četnosti a kvality záznamů v kronikách. Veškeré informace autorka čerpala ze školních a obecních kronik, které byly dochovány a jsou uloženy ve Státním okresním archivu v Berouně, a současně z literatury, jež byla k daným tématům vydána. O teoretickou část se pak opírá část praktická, jež je vedena formou kvalitativního výzkumu a vychází z metody orální historie. Součástí praktické části jsou rozhovory s bývalými žáky, jejichž vzpomínky a subjektivní názory pomohou dokreslit celou historii školy. Záměrně je výběr respondentů rozdělen do různých generací. Autorčiným záměrem bylo, aby se vždy dva respondenti setkali ve škole v jednom období a bylo tak možné porovnat jejich...This thesis explores the historical development of the elementary school in Karlštejn.

In the forge of conflicts and characters : the genesis of Barbora Radvilaitė by Juozas Grušas
No full text'Barbora Radvilaitė' is considered to be not only one of the most famous dramas by Juozas Grušas (1901-1986), but also one of the best plays in Lithuanian dramaturgy. The play initiated a wide discussion of the fusion of classical and modern theatre; in addition, it is one of the best examples of the artistic interpretation of the themes of love, patriotism, and personal freedom.
In terms of their emotive charge, the characters of Barbora Radvilaitė' equal to those depicted in the works of the most famous European dramatists—they are majestic in their love and in their spirit. Žygimantas Augustas and his wife' romance is a truly Renaissance story, an inspiring example of sacrifice and overpowering passions, full of human aspirations to change the course of history. It took a long time for the playwright to come up with the final version of 'Barbora Radvilaitė'. However, during the writing process of the play it did not undergo crucial alterations. The statistics, first of all, shows a particular dynamics of changes and a purposeful qualitative development of the play. The analysis of the manuscripts not only enables us to follow the genesis of the harsh conflicts and the vivid characters of the drama, but also allows us to better understand the creative incentives of the
author. A gradual change in the number of characters and the amount of exchanges articulated demonstrates the modification of priorities in terms of the importance allotted to the personages in question. As a result, there evolves a different pattern of the problems to be dealt with in the overall context of the play. This can be illustrated by the fact that details and topics given much attention to in the first version become just an insignificant element in the last variant, and vice versa
