British Civil Service Reforms: tradition-transformation-continuity?
Hálová, Daniela ; Rovná, Lenka (advisor) ; Váška, Jan (referee)
The aim of this Master thesis is to analyse the British civil service reforms both in theory and practice. The author picked three areas where the reforms would be scrutinized. By analysing four essential documents that contributed to the reforms of the civil service: The Northcote-Trevelyan report, The Fulton report, Next Steps and Modernising Government, we would be able to evaluate the impact of these changes in the following areas: 1) Human Resources (recruitment, training and the promotion of the civil servants) 2) Administration and Accountability (the aspects of ministerial responsibility, accountability, special advisers) 3) Decentralisation and Fragmentation (impact of the multi-level governance including deconcentration, devolution and EU membership). The first chapter is the necessary introductory part that deals with the basic principles of the British civil service, its history and the challenges it faces today. The second chapter provides analysis and historical background of the four documents that are used in the next section. Finally, the third chapter discusses the three above mentioned problematic areas. By analysing and comparing the documents, we seek to understand the reforms of the British civil service and their impact.

Danišová, Marie ; Cejp, Martin (advisor) ; NÁHRADNÍ, OPONENT (referee)
Diploma thesis "Financing of therapeutic communities for drug addicted in the Czech Republic" deals with the financing of therapeutic communities which are the most successful in production abstainer in the system of care for drug addicted in the Czech Republic. The analysis of documents shows that the process of financing isn't perfect. By eliminating the problems of the process of financing we can achieve that the therapists will not have to deal with these problems and thus able to devote more time therapeutic program and its clients which may lead to more abstainer. The aim of this work is a critical reflection process of financing of therapeutic communities, identifying of problems associated with this financing and to propose solutions to public policy. The most burning issue in this process of the allocation of dotation is late financing of therapeutic communities which I consider as my research problem. The thesis is confirmed this assumption and it became clear that problems in this process are unnecessary and the overwhelming majority of this problems could be easily removed. Some problems are serious nature and for change the political will is needed which currently isn't much.

Visions for Krnov
Ondřejová, Daniela ; Bureš, David (referee) ; Galeová, Nicol (advisor)
The aim of the bachelor's thesis was to design an urban-architectural study of a delimited locality in the historical part of Krnov, to find a suitable functional use for the housing development and to verify the vision of its future regarding long-term development of the city centre. The area is located in the city centre, near the main square, between the streets of Sv. Ducha and Soukenická. The location is near the building of the former textile factory and the dominant church of St. Ducha that serves the city as a cultural centre with a concert hall. It is also near a Jewish synagogue, a Minorite church with a monastery building and a residential block. The plot is also connected to the circular strip of public greenery, which partially copies the original city walls. Currently, the place is an unused brownfield. After the rehabilitation of industrial buildings, the location with exposed corners looks unattractive and the use of its potential is inadequate due to the position near the main square, as well as to the important visual and transport connections of the entire urban structure of Krnov. The combination of urban functions with an emphasis on the quality of public spaces could create a still living structure including not only the new town hall but also new public spaces, multifunctional hall, gallery, cafes, in case of reconversion of the industrial building offices or accommodation facilities.

The GAP in Brno
Hobzová, Petra ; Jourová, Drahoslava (referee) ; Palaščák, Michal (advisor)
The subject of my bachelor's thesis is the design of a multifunctional building in a selected gap in the center of Brno in Jezuitská Street. The main idea was to create a multifunctional house that will be suitably designed into a cramped and deep gap and will combine several functional units. It is primarily civic amenities with services, administrative functions and mostly student housing. On the ground floor there is a shop and a cafe. In my work I deal with the material connection to the surrounding buildings of the place and I respect it. In the cramped narrow gap, which has a given area, it was necessary to divide the building plot into 2 masses due to sufficient sun exposure of all spaces. The main mass, which closes the street line on Jezuitská Street and the second, which closes the gap in the park of Danuše Muzikářová. In the central part there is a smaller courtyard with vertical communication with a singlearm staircase and a barrier-free solution - an elevator. The horizontal communication consists of balconies, which connect the two materials on each floor and from them there are accesses to individual apartments and offices. In the proposed multifunctional building, there is a passage from Jezuitská Street through the courtyard with greenery to Danuše Muzikářová Park on the ground floor.

Smart District Špitalka
Pelčák, Vlastimil ; Hybská, Bohumila (referee) ; Sedláček, Michal (advisor)
This thesis deals with an architectural case study of the urban block in the Svitava industrial zone bordered by the Svitava River in the east, Ring Road in the west, Milady Horákové Street in the north and Zvonařka Street in the south. Špitálka Smart City has been designed to be in this area. The thesis is modelled on the Špitálka Smart City urban study, that was the outcome of the pre-thesis seminar in the winter term 2020/21. The urban study objective was the urban renewal of the Brno teplárny (heating plant) area and its surroundings as well as a design of a new urban boulevard. The thesis focuses on a design of a selected urban block in the Smart City Špitálka. This mixed-use development provides commercial, administrative and residential functions. The block is divided into two parts; either part consists of three sections. Two underground storeys providing parking space and space for building services are intended for the whole block. The case study further develops only the section that is labeled Coworking offering six floors for coworking spaces. On the ground floor there are spaces for a café, commerce and also the main entry to the co-working offices. A sky-office and a venue for rent are located on the seventh floor. The venue can be used for a wide range of events from smaller conferences, through corporate meetings & teambuildings to private parties. Both the sky-office and the venue have access to the rooftop terrace. The design creates a modern office building concept in the former industrial zone.

New synagogue in Trutnov
Král, Ondřej ; Benedek, Borislav (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
The diploma project is an elaborate design of a synagogue including associated facilities for the Jewish population in Trutnov. The proposition is designed in the phase of architectural study. The location of the proposal is placed near the historic centre of Trutnov. The intention of the proposal was to respect the conditions of the surroundings and relations with the environment and at the same time provide the Jewish population with representative and sufficiently sized spaces for their activities. The main building also provides an opportunity for chance encounters between the Jewish population and the public, thus indirectly contributing to the growth of the Jewish community and awareness of Judaism as such. The main building is a three-storey building placed in the terrain so that it forms natural "stairs" in the slope of the hill. The roofs of the building also serve as walking terraces, which ensure the accessibility and walkability of the plot. In the basement there are garages, the 1st floor contains a kosher restaurant and space for co-working. On the last floor, a mikveh, a space for the administration of the Jewish community and an archive of Jewish literature are designed. The second designed building is a newly designed synagogue, which stands on the site of the old synagogue. The original synagogue was burned out during Crystal night. The design pays respect to the original synagogue by including the floor plan of it in the paving pattern.
