Abstract: [eng] [cze]
Main objective of the thesis is to evaluate trade and political relations between the Czech Republic and selected countries in Latin America (selected countries will be those with strongest ties to the Czech Republic). Hypothesis: Trade and political relations between Czech Republic and Latin American Countries are well developing in the course of the time. Latin-American region provides a great potential for future cooperation. Emphasis will be targeted on the assessment of business conditions (including bilateral agreements on mutual trade), further on the most important export commodities and investment opportunities. At the same time, the work will attempt to estimate the level of potential of Latin American territory and further direction of mutual relationships. The research will contain a questionnaire for Czech entrepreneurs operating in Latin America and a thorough analysis of mutual trade will be given. Unfortunately, this subject is not documented with a large number of printed books, therefore, the key source of information will be databases and statistical information published by state institutions (Chamber of Deputies, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Industry and Trade, etc.).

Hypotéza: Vzájemné obchodní a politické vztahy mezi Českou republiou a zeměmi Latinské Ameriky se v průběhu času vyvíjejí pozitivně. Latinsko-americký region nabízí velký potenciál pro další spolupráci. Diplomová práce se pokusí zhodnotit míru tohoto potenciálu a budoucí směřování vzájemných vztahů. Součástí výzkumu bude dotazník pro české obchodníky, kteří působí v Latinské Americe. Vzhledem k tomu, že toto téma není zmapováno v knižních publikacích, hlavním zdrojem informací budou zejména databáze, statistické informace publikované státními institucemi (Poslanecká sněmovna, Ministerstvo zahraničí, Ministerstvo průmyslu a obchodu, ad.)
