Ethnization of Social Problems and Conflicts by Workers' Party of Social Justice

This master thesis deals with the Workers' Party of Social Justice (DSSS) and with their social programme. At present, DSSS is the strongest extreme right political party. Although the party is not present in the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Republic, its electorate is gradually enlarging and DSSS is popular especially among young people. The goal of this thesis is to survey if the party's propaganda contains elements of racism, national and ethnic intolerance, anti-Semitism and anti-systematism, i.e. if the ideology after its dissolution in 2010 is still same as before and DSSS is an undemocratic extreme right political party, which wants to abuse present crisis and deficit of democracy in order to gain political power. The thesis stems from the economical, political and social situation in the Czech Republic, as it can be the cause of the social radicalization. Afterwards, it deals with the development of DSSS from its beginning until now and with basic elements of its ideology. Pursuant the analysis of party prints, speeches, claims of individual party members and interview with the leader Tomáš Vandas, this master thesis proves that DSSS charges national and ethnic minorities with social problems of the country, incites to national and ethnic intolerance and is against the present democratic regime.
