Grimdark - a study of appearance and application of a new subgenre in modern fiction
VITEK, Michal
The theme of the thesis will be grimdark, grasped as a new subgenre of fiction, mainly associated with the Warhammer 40 000 universe. The thesis will focus primarily on analyzing the question of the possibilities of meaningfully defining this subgenre, tracing the ways in which these definitions are applied towards the Warhammer 40 000 universe, and the development of features that contribute to the definition of the subgenre in the timelines of fictional worlds. With a reflection on the media in which they are presented. This issue of sub-genre definition will be set within the framework of standard aesthetic categories and narratology. Furthermore, the thesis will address the occurrence of the given subgenre features in other selected universes. Both in literary, audio, film or videogame format, with an attempt to differentiate the subgenre delineation of grimdark from other subgenres and to analyze the possibility of adding fictions not yet labeled with this term under the wing of grimdark.

Doping and doping controls in different sports
Vítek, Michal ; Pokorný, Ladislav (advisor) ; Svobodová, Irena (referee)
Sport as a kind of physical activity should, above all, be a way of entertainment for people. However, one cannot forget to mention the other aspects, which sport provides to people, whether from the point of view of health or psychology. It particularly concerns the improvement of both physical and mental form, prevention against health problems, relaxation, improvement of communication, cooperation etc. Sport has become a phenomena of these days. Shining careers, tremendous popularity and last but not least sometimes huge amounts of money offered to the best sportsmen lead to swindles as a matter of course. Nowadays, the desire for success can overcome the limits of fair play, and therefore a lot of sportsmen tend to the use of illegal aids in order to have an advantage over their rivals. In spite of that, doping is not the term only connected with top-performance sports, but also with recreation sports. Dope substances are used on all sporting levels at the present. The main aim of this work is to introduce readers to the problems of using dopes and their detection. The work describes the ways in which doping checks proceed, and in which sports and on which levels doping checks can be anticipated. Keywords Doping, blood tests, testing, doping controls , prohibited substances , prohibited metods...

Objective arbitrability as the limit of a transnational legal order
Vítek, Michal ; Růžička, Květoslav (advisor) ; Bělohlávek, Alexander (referee) ; Frinta, Ondřej (referee)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT Objective arbitrability as a limit of the transnational legal order In general, the disertation deals with a topic of interaction between the transnational and national law in the area of international trade. Specifically, it attempts to use the concept of objective arbitrability as a limit of the privately-created system of law referred to as lex mercatoria (alternatively "new lex mercatoria"). The reason for the chosen methodology is to come up with the most objective criterion to demark the scope of the application of privately created norms. Despite the wide recognition of the NLM fenomenon among the scholars and even arbitrators, the parties of international trade contracts can not be certain whether (and to what extent) the choice of NLM will be limitating, especially in the face of later recognition and enforcement of their arbital awards. The findings of this dissertation flows from the analysis of transnational norms, decisions of both state courts and arbitration tribunals and the relevant sources of law-theory. Especially important is the description of the concept of lex mercatoria as such and the description of order public, both in national and international/european meaning as it represents the final limit of application of privately-created norms. The conclusion of the...

The New Lex Mercatoria
Vítek, Michal ; Dobiáš, Petr (advisor) ; Pauknerová, Monika (referee)
NLM Abstract The topic of lex mercatoria does not represent any new nor revolutionary concept for the legal science, on the contrary it is a concept present in the european legal thinking since the middle ages. Despite of that it still remains without a clear and comprehensible theoretical framework thus in a stage of some sort of a legal hypothesis. This rigorous thesis describes in its five chapters the topic of lex mercatoria - specifically its up to date form: New Lex Mercatoria - not as a concept but as an applicable law and within the extent of this thesis attempts to come up with both the reasons for such perspective as well as with those which oppose it. For this reason it answers the following basic questions: Does a clear concept of the New Lex Mercatoria exist? Does such law have the historical continuity? Does such law have any clear distinctivness when compared to the legal orders of national states? Which norms create such legal order and who and under which conditions does enforce them?

When applied it allows them to resolve their disputes "smoothly" with the possibility to avoid an open conflict scenario and reduce their transaction costs. This masters thesis aim is to describe the legal phenomenon mentioned above in seven chapters. The first three chapters deal with theoretical and historical background of the topic, followed by the description of a variety of possible dispute resolution methods in chapter IV. Chapter V. lists three model MDR clauses and describes the Med-arb method as a typical example of MDR. Chapters VI. and VII. are concerned with practical questions of relevant legal orders in the arbitration step of MDR and with the importance of recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards.
