EU energy policy and its goals
Holoubek, Lukáš ; Ševčíková, Michaela (advisor) ; Ryvolová, Ivana (referee)
The aim of my BA thesis is to answer the question why the European Union is trying to have a common energy policy. I will start with the historical events which influenced the process of the economic integration of Europe. Among the milestones of this integration are the foundation of ECSC, the creation of Euratom, the oil shocks in the seventies, the publication of the White Book concerning the EU energy policy and of the Green Book of the European Committee and the Lisbon Treaty (if ratified). I will focus on the events which are leading Europe to solving the energy issue. I will also tackle the question whether by means of the common foreign policy Europe will gain energy independence of unreliable sources and safety. As a method I will use an analysis of the goals of the energy policies - why did the European Union set these goals and what will reaching these goals bring to the EU states. In the concluding part I will compare the goals of the EU energy policy with the Czech energy policy.

Climate changes - a view of conservatism and environmentalism
Červenková, Martina ; Lisa, Aleš (advisor) ; Prorok, Vladimír (referee)
The topic of this thesis is the issue of global warming in terms of political ideology - conservatism and environmentalism.. For comparison, I chose two representatives - Vaclav Klaus and Al Gore. The aim of this work is to compare ideologically conditioned responses and their political implications. This is illustrated by the example of two personalities of world politics representing both different attitudes toward the issue of global warming and climate change and different ideologies - Václav Klaus and Al Gore. The work is methodologically based on an analysis of ideology of conservatism and environmentalism and on an analysis of empirical knowledge regarding global warming.

Tha influence of iceberg melting on economic situation of Greenland
Chuchlíková, Zuzana ; Ryvolová, Ivana (advisor) ; Petrášek, František (referee)
The aim of this piece is to estimate the future progress of the economic situation of Greenland on the basis of available dates. To show whether the initiation of mining enables to separate Greenland from Denmark, which Greenland has urged for a long time to and which has not been available because of financial reasons. Thanks to comparison to progress of Norway, which depended very much on fishing before oil extraction (as well as Greenland today) we can see the importance of mining in Greenland. Besides mining, iceberg melting has a great influence on accessibility of this island (new naval routes etc.). The point of this piece is to show that climate changes and iceberg melting are not so negative and a threat for all areas of the world. It could also mean important economic assets for particular areas.
