Transformation of national liberation struggle into terrorism - the case of ETA
Lexová, Alžběta ; Zemanová, Štěpánka (advisor) ; Dubský, Zbyněk (referee)
Basque separatist group ETA (Euskadi Ta Batasuna) was founded in 1959 to achieve the full independence for Basque country at any price. This thesis puts a question when the nationalist fight for Basque independence, which has started in 19th century, turned into terrorist organization. Until 1975 the actions of ETA could be compared to guerrilla actions, because their attacks were aimed almost exclusively against the representatives of general Franco's fascist dictatorship. After year 1975, although Spain was going through transformation into democratic system, ETA still attacked the representatives of police, army and public servants, till the 1987, when it chose the department store as its target on purpose and this attack caused twenty one dead and forty five injured civilians. Nowadays ETA claims, that the ceasefire, that has been declared in the beginning of 2011, is permanent, general and trustworthy.

Financial analysis of Spanish companies with an emphasis on their evaluation according to selected sectors and autonomous regions
Exlerová, Lenka ; Marek, Petr (advisor) ; Dufková, Eva (referee)
This thesis involves the financial analysis of spanish companies with an emphasis on their evaluation according to selected sectors and autonomous regions. For the purpose of the evaluation the indicators of profitability, turnover, liquidity and indebtedness are used. The autonomous regions are firstly evaluated from the point of view of the revenues of the individual sectors as part of the total turnover for the region. These practical parts are supplemented by the general but also economic characteristics of Spain. The conclusion reached following the evaluation of the individual indicators is that the most sucessful sectors are "DC -- Manufacture of leather and leather products", "DK -- Manufacture of machinery and equipment n.e.c." and "DL -- Manufacture of electrical and optical equipment". In contrast the sectors "A -- Agricultural, hunting and forestry" and "B -- Fishing" were the least sucessful. In addition it was found, that in general, the greatest share of the revenues of the autonomous regions were in the sectors "F -- Construction", "DA -- Manufacture of food products, beverages and tobacco" and "DJ -- Manufacture of basic metals and fabricated metal products". In contrast the sectors of "B --fishing" and "CA -- Mining and quarrying of energy producing materials" contribute the least in terms of revenues. The greatest absolute revenue values are achieved in the autonomous region of Madrid, followed by the regions of Cataluňa and País Vasco. In contrast the Extremadura region had the lowest revenues.
