Theoretical Approaches and Practical Solutions of the Socio-economic Problems of the Least Developed Countries (LDCs)
Harmáček, Jaromír ; Jeníček, Vladimír (advisor) ; Kašpar, Václav (referee) ; Varadzin, František (referee) ; Foltýn, Jaroslav (referee)
The thesis focuses on theoretical and empirical analysis of economic growth and its implications for economic and social development of the Least Developed Countries (LDCs). The thesis proceeds from the assumption that economic growth is the necessary (but not sufficient) condition for economic, social and human development of societies and nations. In context of the LDCs, this assumption can be modified: it is assumed that it has been the low average rate of growth in the long-run that is associated with the complex social and economic issues of LDCs. The primary objective of the thesis is to verify this association within the LDCs, then to investigate factors that have been the major determinants for economic growth in (African) LDCs. From the perspective of theory the thesis is grounded in theories and models of economic growth that are crucial for researching factors of growth and its implications for development. The thesis focuses also on in-depth analysis of the LDCs both from the classification and statistical perspectives. The latter one is based on comparisons with selected groups of states within the World economy.

Energy dependency of the EU with focus on Russia
Braunová, Marie ; Vošta, Milan (advisor) ; Harmáček, Jaromír (referee)
The European Union is becoming increasingly dependent on energy imports. Especially oil and natural gas imports are rising as their production in Europe declines. The most important energy partner of the EU is Russia, which delivers the biggest volumes of oil and natural gas to european countries. The highest rate of energy dependency on Russia can be observed in eastern and central Europe, where diverzification of energy supplies is one of key issues. It is necessary to reduce the energy dependency on russian gas, but at the same time, it is important to build a stable partnership with Russia, which is striving to become a leader at the global energy market, where demand for fossil fuels is rapidly rising. Apart from searching alternative suppliers to russian natural gas in order to achieve higher energy independence, an important role could play alternative energy sources, energy savings or rebirth of nuclear energy.

Čiháková, Hana ; Němečková, Tereza (advisor) ; Harmáček, Jaromír (referee)
The first part is concerned with the history and the actual state of the economic relations between Czechoslovakia (the Czech Republic) and Guinea. These relations used to be very developed particulary in the 1960s. After that the cooperation was being on the decline and at the end of the 1980s it reached the minimum. Nowadays the big problem is a high debt of Guinea towards the Czech republic. Guinea has always demanded the developing aid. In the past it received it also from Czechoslovakia particulary in the education. Nowadays the developing aid is executed by certain Czech non-governmental and non-profit organizations. The third part describes the economic and developing cooperation between the EU and the countries ACP, especially the African region. The aim of the work is to describe the rich history of the relations between Czechoslovakia and Guinea. The author wants to find the reasons why these relations have been broken and to find the instruments for the recovery of the cooperation.

China and India as a part of the Asian developing center
Sýkora, Jakub ; Adamcová, Lenka (advisor) ; Harmáček, Jaromír (referee)
China and India are currently one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Because of more or less successful reforms enacted 30 years ago in China and 15 years ago in India, both countries have become more open to the outside world and have managed to build a strong presence in the world markets. This paper aims to describe this development and the status quo of the selected areas of international trade, leading to a comparison of the gathered data.
