Dokument ke stáhnutĂ­ Etiopie a otázka národní identity: Přihlédnutí k ústavám z let 1931, 1955, 1987 a 1994

Abstract:

In last two decades, a public as well as academic discourse in Ethiopia has been largely influenced by redefinition of Ethiopia’s history which in the 1994 constitution gave broad rights to minorities and ethnic groups. Since that time, we usually speak about the so-called ethnic federalism as a specific political organization of the state where ethnicity is the main factor of mobilization and source of identification. Unfortunately, both the government and certain opposition groups including the diaspora contributed to an atmosphere of extremely politicized ethnicity. The aim of this study is to analyze the process of the formation of the contemporary Ethiopian state in three stages, from Imperial times through Socialism until ethnic federalism with special focus on the issue of ethnic and national identities. The main argument of the text is that the Ethiopian constitutions, which are used here as the main sources, dealing with national/ethnic identities and minority rights were all used or abused by consecutive governments in order to legitimize their rule while in reality the main principles of the constitutions were largely ill-treated.

Abstract:

This article deals with the U.S. Electoral College and its role in U.S. presidential elections, including its constitutional origins, evolution and current workings. It aims to evaluate and analyze the possible positive or negative results the system produces.

It also analyzes the possible reform alternatives of the Electoral College, both in general terms and by making a comparison of the five most common reform alternatives that have been proposed: national popular vote, district system, proportional allocation of electors, National Popular Vote Interstate Compact and reform of the allocation of electors in the state of Colorado after its approval though ballot initiative. The last two alternatives of electoral reform were introduced and actively pursued in the last ten years, they are therefore an issue of a great importance and very also actual.

Dokument ke stáhnutĂ­ Venezuelská zahraniční politika: zdroj vnitropolitické legitimizace?

Abstract:

The study aims at demonstrating changes in the foreign policy of Venezuela and its links to the new regime legitimacy. The analysis focuses on 4 aspects of internal politics: national economic interests, national noneconomic interests (national identity, sovereignty, regional leadership), relations between politicians and military forces, definition of enemy. The fact that those criteria or aspects are mutually interlinked is taken into account. Specific steps in the field of Venezuelan foreign policy are described, analyzed and interpreted with regard to above defined aspects. Arguments resulting out of the analysis reflect to what extent the specific foreign activities correspond to mid-term or long-term national interests of Venezuela. Or if they rather help to legitimize the new regime or support the internal position of the president Chávez. The main conclusions states the increasing intensity of foreign policy activities aiming at legitimization of the new regime and supporting internal position of the president and decreasing intensity of activities aiming at mid-term and long-term interests of Venezuela.
