2Declaration European Call for Democracy In 1 DECLARATION: European Call for Democracy in Catalonia 20th of December 2017 We, members of Parliaments in European countries, express our deepest concern regarding the current situation in Catalonia. In light of the dismissal of the democratically elected Catalan government and the later imprisonment of ministers and leaders of civil society organizations, we call on the Spanish government to cease in this excessive use of force. Furthermore, we call on the Spanish government and on the international society to ensure the upcoming election for the regional Parliament in Catalonia be held in a democratic manner free from undue interference from the Spanish government. We express our wish that the imprisoned minister and leaders of civil society organizations be released and we urge the Spanish government to avoid further use of force and engage in political dialogue with the regional government elected by the Catalans.

V Praze dne 2. května 2021 Tomáš Kouba Bibliografický záznam KOUBA, Tomáš. Komparace působení Sinn Féin v Irsku a Severním Irsku. Praha, 2021. 73 s. Bakalářská práce (Bc). Univerzita Karlova, Fakulta sociálních věd, Institut Politologie. Katedra Politologie. Vedoucí bakalářské práce doc. PhDr. Michel Perottino, PhD. Rozsah práce: 142 931 znaků (včetně mezer) Anotace Tato bakalářská práce se věnuje komparativní analýze dvou částí strany Sinn Féin, která jako jediná relevantní strana působí jak v Irsku, tak v Severním Irsku. Obě části strany získaly v posledních volbách do parlamentů působících na Britských ostrovech nevídanou podporu a zasedají tak v irském, severoirském i britském parlamentu. Strana se jednotně prezentuje jako republikánská nacionalistická levicová strana, která usiluje o sjednocení Irska v jeden stát, a to již od svého prvopočátku na začátku 20. století. Práce se tak bude zabývat podobnostmi a odlišnostmi ve fungování strany v obou částech ostrova. Zohledněn bude vývoj strany jako takový, struktura stranické organizace, financování a programy pro volby v letech 2017 (Severoirské shromáždění), 2019 (Dolní sněmovna Spojeného království) a 2020 (Dáil Éireann).
