The Effect of the Great Depression on the Czechoslovak export

The topic of the bachelor's thesis is the effects of the Great Depression on the Czechoslovak export. Its consequences reflected in the thirties, not only in territorial and commodity structure, but also in the trade policy of Czechoslovakia. In my thesis I focus briefly on the foreign trade, which despite the obstacles associated with the newly established state, developer quite satisfactorily. The main section of the thesis is the Czechoslovak export in thirties, where I analyse trade policy and the structure of domestic export. The impetus for the changes in trade policy and actions of the Czechoslovak Government in the thirties was Great Depression that hit the entire world market. These steps should have had a stimulating effect on domestic export, but its impact was at least debatable. Furthermore, the Great Depression caused significant changes not only in the commodity structure, which had to adapt to completely changed demand, but also in the territorial structure, when the interest in non-European markets generally increased.
