House of Norway
26. 4. 2017 Author: Sára Sošková Prague can be proud of its wide range of art-cinemas, that’s why its essential to visit at least one of those cinemas while you are here.We decided to see a movie in ,,Světozor”, which was opened 1918. It’s situated in the real heart of Prague, in Wenceslas square. If you want to get there, you have to go trough beautiful and old passage. In the area of the cinema is also really nice coffee, where ye can get a drink before your film starts or just hang out there with you friends.
Last week a festival of european films took place there. We chose a movie called House of Norway, which main theme was Refugee crisis. The whole problem of this crisis was transferred in just two people, one Norwegian guy, who represented the whole Europe and one Syrian guy, who represented all refugees. This film made you laugh, but also left you with something to think about.

5. 5. 2026 Author: Oldřich Bureš
In April 2026, the Center for Security Studies and the Department of International Relations and European Studies at Metropolitan University Prague hosted thought-provoking lectures examining the evolving landscape of violent extremism. Delivered by Sean McCafferty and Adam Hanzel, both Marie Skłodowska-Curie GLOCTER Project PhD fellows, the sessions explored how terrorist actors exploit the digital environment and how new, harder-to-define forms of extremism are reshaping traditional security frameworks. Together, the lectures offered students a comprehensive look at both the online dynamics of contemporary terrorism and the emerging challenges posed by accelerationist and nihilistic violent extremist movements.
