Russia’s role in the official peace process in South Ossetia

The aim of this article is to analyse the role of Russia in the transformation of the Georgian-Ossetian conflict and analyse this important period in the history of the Caucasus, where Georgia and its secessionist region of South Ossetia have been trying to find a peaceful solution to their post-war situation. Major milestones of the official peace process are set in the context of Russian-Georgian relations. We then proceed to the analysis of the internal changes within the Russian Federation at the turn of the millennium and try to find a connection between this internal transformation of Russia and the transformation of the conflict in South Ossetia. The most important factors behind the more assertive approach by the Russian Federation towards Georgia in the last decade are considered: internal centralisation of power and economic growth of the Russian Federation, the reinforcement of the importance of the South Caucasus as part of the geopolitical discourse within the Russian Federation, the deterioration in Russian-Georgian relations, and the suppression of the fear of the spill-over effect since the end of Second Chechen War

Vojna proti terorizmu a vojna teroru: Analýza post-transformačného separatizmu Kremeľ, radikálny Salafizmus a post-sovietsky Dagestan na ceste od mieru k násiliu

After 1999 the situation in then relatively stable Dagestan started to deteriorate swiftly. However, unlike in the cases of previous separatist movements which sprung up in some parts of the Russian Federation after the demise of the USSS, Dagestani separatists did not officially gather under the flags of nation but under the flags of Islam. Soon, Dagestan entered a period of instability and violence which turned into a vicious circle of bloodshed. In a short period of time, Dagestan radically turned from stability to large scale violence, which makes it necessary for us to understand the factors responsible for the current situation. The following thesis analyses the development of Dagestan after the collapse of the USSR, from the stable period of the 90s till these days, which are characterized by omnipresent violence. Employing the theoretical knowledge collected by other scholars and analyzing similar separatist movements in other parts of the post-socialist world, taking into account the specifics the North Caucasus region, this study attempts to identify the factors (grassroots) which caused the rise of Dagestani insurgence. In comparison with the Chechen separatism of the early 90s, it uncovers the roots and the real face of the "new wave" of insurgency which flooded Dagestan and started to...Po roku 1999 sa situácia v do tej doby relatívne stabilnom Dagestane začala prudko zhoršovať. Avšak na rozdiel od prípadov predchádzajúcich separatistických hnutí, ktoré vzplanuli v niektorých častiach Ruskej federácie po rozpade ZSSR, Dagestanskí separatisti sa nezačali zhromažďovať pod nacionalistickými vlajkami, avšak pod vlajkou Islamu. Už čoskoro nastúpil Dagestan vstúpil do obdobia zvýšenej nestability a násilia, ktoré sa vyvinuli v bludnú špirálu krviprelievania. Tento v skutku radikálny odklon Dagestanu od stability k rozsiahlemu násiliu za tak krátke obdobie pred nás kladie potrebu pochopiť aké faktory vznik daného stavu spôsobili. Táto diplomová práca analyzuje vývoj Dagestanu po rozpade ZSSR od stabilných 90-tych rokov až do dnešných dní, ktoré sú charakteristické všadeprítomným násilím. Aplikáciou teoretických poznatkov získaných inými odborníkmi analyzujúcimi obdobné separatistické hnutia v post-socialistickom priestore, za prihliadnutia k špecifikám regiónu Severného Kaukazu sa táto štúdia snaží identifikovať faktory, ktoré stoja na pozadí Dagestanského separatizmu. Pomocou komparácie s Čečenským separatizmom zo začiatku 90-tych rokov práca odhaľuje korene a skutočnú tvár "novej vlny" separatizmu, ktorá zaplavila Dagestan a ďalej sa šíri regiónom Severného Kaukazu.Katedra ruských a východoevropských studiíDepartment of Russian and East European StudiesFakulta sociálních vědFaculty of Social Science
