Suggestive techniques in advertising
Sora, Olena ; Kašparová, Eva (advisor) ; Surynek, Alois (referee)
In my thesis I focused on a detailed analysis of suggestive techniques that appear in contemporary advertising. The issue of the effects of advertising has existed for many years and still staying timely. On the one side there are entrepreneurs and advertising agencies that are trying to influence opinions and suggest motivation for consuming. On the other side there is a potential customer, who is trying to obtain information about the product he needs and at the same time not letting anybody to influence him, manipulate with his mind and decisions. Suggestive technologies that are used in advertising, influence customers' opinion and behavior, persuade him and motivate. In my work I reflect on political advertising, especially pre-election advertising campaigns, using content visual analysis I compared ad campaigns of the biggest political parties in Czech Republic in order to determine what techniques are used, whom these statements were turned to and what emotions it appeals to in consumers-voters.

Political parties are an integral part of the modern democracy. However, people hardly ever have an idea about the internal mechanisms within them. The goal of this work is the evaluation of an intra-party democracy of the two biggest Czech parties -- the Civil Democratic Party and the Czech Social Democratic Party.

The first chapter deals with the political parties themselves -- the definition of basic terms, functions and role of the political parties, typology of political parties and also the issue of the intra-party democracy. In the second chapter the parties are briefly introduced. Next subchapters analyse aspects according to which the levels of the intra-party democracy can be meassured. After this, the comparation of both parties is made. In the conclusion all the results are summarized and evaluated.

Dissent in Parliamentary Majority: Legislative Activities of the Chamber of Deputies Parliament of the Czech Republic 1996-2010
Kuta, Martin ; Reschová, Jana (advisor) ; Němec, Jan (referee)
Parliamentary system of government demands parliamentary competent parties. Dissension within parties can block the entire political system; the government cannot rely on its majority and fails in processing its proposals on the agenda of the parliament. From the analytical perspective, inquiry in dissension in the parliamentary majority is one of basic questions. The thesis deals with dissension at the theoretical level. Using the Czech Chamber of Deputies as an example, the thesis conceptualizes forms of dissension (a disapproval of a governmental proposal at the first reading as the absolute dissent). The thesis conducts voting unity tests of Czech political parties that forge government. According to the empirical inquiry, the dissension that leads to the disapproval of governmental proposals stems from the dissent within the political parties, not from the dissent among parties.

Pozlovská, Zuzana ; Dvořáková, Vladimíra (advisor) ; Reschová, Jana (referee)
The thesis is about the representation of the women in the politics, especially in The Czech Republic. The goal is to answer on the question, if this approach depends on the position of the political party on the ideological left-right spectrum. First the thesis is focused on the development of the women's position in the society since the 18th century and on the women's right struggle within feminism. The second part of thesis presents the methods, which support the women's political activity. The last capture analyzes the approach to the women in politics of seven political parties, which won the seat in the Chamber of Deputies in Parliament of The Czech Republic in the years 2006 and 2010. It compares their approach to policy of equal gender representation in the party's documents and in the reality. The result of the analysis is that the power of the party is more important than its position on left-right spectrum in the approach to women. The more powerful party is the less opportunities have the women in politics.
