Fair Trade: the Fair Trade Organization
Castro Chaparro, Enrique Adolfo ; Štěrbová, Ludmila (advisor) ; Zamykalová, Miroslava (referee)
The aim of the thesis is to clarify concepts regarding the Fair Trade system and to contribute to an objective debate about the viability of the model and its real effects. It analyses history and development of trade; trade institutions and major players, development theories and namely concepts of Free Trade and Fair Trade and the differences between them. It is not fair to blame the market for the poverty and hardships of the poor; but it is also unwise to expect things to be fixed alone. Fair Trade is an alternative; a choice. It must not be taken as something unquestionably beneficial, but it must not be demonized either: a sincere debate is necessary to assess the effectiveness of Fair Trade and other forms of help to combat poverty.

Analýza Fair Trade jako tržního nástroje řešení chudoby obyvatel třetího světa
Duchoslavová, Romana ; Svoboda, Miroslav (advisor) ; Hlaváč, Petr (referee)
Hnutí Fair Trade v podobě ve které se objevuje dnes existuje ve světě od 60. let minulého století. Základní cíl, které si toto hnutí stanoví, je zlepšení podmínek producentů třetího světa, kteří jsou podle stoupenců FT hnutí na mezinárodních trzích znevýhodněni. Prostředkem, k tomuto cíli je existence férové ceny, za kterou FT obchodníci tyto plodiny a výrobky vykupují.?Hnutí Fair Trade je stále předmětem diskusí. Tato práce by se měla věnovat rozboru argumentace pro i proti a v závěru zhodnotit jednotlivá stanoviska a přiklonit se k jednomu z nich.

An assessment of North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)
Lím, Vojtěch ; Novotná, Zuzana (advisor) ; Potužáková, Zuzana (referee)
Práce se zabývá zhodnocením dosavadní existence Dohody o severoamerickém volném obchodu (NAFTA) s důrazem na její vliv na vzájemný obchod signatářských zemí. Dopady NAFTA jsou popisovány z hlediska jednotlivých sektorů ekonomik. Práce zkoumá efekty v primárním, sekundárním a terciárním sektoru, přičemž odvětví, která byla liberalizací nejvíce ovlivněna, jsou zpracována individuálně. Popsány jsou rovněž efekty NAFTA na tvorbu nových pracovních míst v regionu. Práce ukazuje, že i přes značné úspěchy, které se v procesu integrace v Severní Americe podařilo dosáhnout, zůstávají některá odvětví daleko od dokončené zóny volného obchodu a je v nich potřebná další liberalizace.
