Sladovník, Roman ; Lukášová, Tereza (advisor) ; Barák, Vladimír (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with the effectiveness of social transfers in reducing income poverty and income inequality in the Czech Republic in the context of social reforms and the economic situation in 2005-2017. Efficiency in the thesis is the percentage reduction at risk of poverty rate by means of social transfers and old-age pensions, which is then compared with the correlation analysis with the corresponding social benefits to determine the dependence on these benefits for hypothesis testing. The hypothesis, The growth of poverty alleviation spending, decreasing their effectiveness, has not been confirmed, although the height of correlation coefficients between social welfare spending and the social transfers efficiency are in most cases low, signifying a nearly negligible degree of dependence and hence an increase in Social policy expenditure does not necessarily mean an increase in efficiency. The contribution of the thesis and its uniqueness lies in the chosen methodology, which examines the amount of expenditures on social policy areas according to the risk and needs with the effectiveness of the benefits primarily intended for the individuals belonging to these areas.
