The use and the consequences of electronic voting in Estonia
Pelíšková, Dana ; Němec, Jan (advisor) ; Vymětal, Petr (referee)
Europe has faced to the long-term falling voter turnout, particularly of the young generations presenting the most numerous group of absentee voters, and this trend should be changed by electronic voting. Many European states have already introduced pilot projects of electronic elections, but the only state in the world, where the nationwide electronic elections have taken place, is Estonia. The Estonian case became the subject of my thesis. The thesis deals specifically with the political consequences of the introduction of electronic voting and if the arguments for introducing electronic voting were really fulfilled.

Kaltoun, Jan ; Chlapek, Dušan (advisor) ; Nenadál, Karel (referee)
The focus of this paper is research of electronic voting topics applied to conditions of University of Economics, Prague and the Czech Republic. It therefore consists of not only theoretical research but also of applied work. First goal of this paper was to provide information base both about (especially electronic) voting and significant electronic voting projects realized throughout the world. Consequent second goal was analysis and design of electronic voting solution for chosen elections type at the University of Economics, Prague and proposal of possible process changes in chosen type of elections in the Czech republic should electronic voting be implemented. In it's first part the paper gathers, summarizes and presents information about (especially electronic) voting and chosen electronic voting implementations. The second part then describes chosen types of elections at the University of Economics, Prague and in the Czech Republic and analyzes their processes. In former case the analysis is followed by proposition and evaluation of possible electronic voting implementation variants of chosen elections type and detailed elaboration of the most suitable one. In latter case the paper goes on to describe possible process changes that could arise should electronic voting be implemented for chosen elections type in the Czech Republic. Author's contribution lies in fulfilling the goals of this thesis and performing the necessary activities leading to them. Following the (electronic) voting research the author has provides the reader with information base needed to quickly orientate tehmselves in the field of electronic voting. The author then leverages this information to research and process-analyze chosen types of elections at the University of Economics, Prague and in the Czech Republic, propose changes in mapped processes needed for eventual electronic voting implementation, present alternatives of electronic voting implementation of chosen elections type at the University of Economics, Prague and elaborate on the chosen most suitable one.
