(Re)construction of the Kosovo Crisis. The Kosovo Crisis from the view of the selected historical-sociological theories
Dobešová, Jana ; Vávra, Martin (advisor) ; Německý, Marek (referee)
1. ABSTRACT The goal of my work is to reconstruct the Kosovo crisis, that led to NATO intervention on Yugoslavia during spring of 1999. The event is analyzed from two dimensions; the first observes and compares existing interpretations of the crisis- causes, process, solutions and consequences, including possible predictions. The other dimension interprets crisis from the view of international relationships. Studying historical sociology made me watch the world, actions, actors, complexly. I realized, that phenomenons don't exist just to be her for themselves, but they are the different parts of a system, that is connected by different ties, and sustained by rules. Kosovo crisis is a differently interpreted event. The different presentations derive from the discourses under which they formed. Kosovo crisis has its historiographical facts- place, time and actor, on to which social constructs lean and which form. Kosovo crisis is a social construct, historical milestone, symbol, stage, game, field and a process. In my work I aim to prove these claims by analyzing the interpretations and applying the international relationship theories.

Dobešová, Jana ; Vojta, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Horčičková, Eva (referee)
INTERACTIONS BETWEEN ANIMALS AND PLANTS IN URBAN FORESTS ABSTRACT This Bachelor thesis focuses on the influence of big mammals (especially Cervidae, wild boars, badgers and foxes) on herb understory in urban forests. Cities are continuously expanding and thus occupy natural habitats of the animals. Therefore, these animals are habituating in urban forests. The specific conditions of both urban and forest habitats and their influences on animal and plant distribution are mentioned. From the possible influences of animals on herb understory, special emphasis is put on herbivory, which can affect individuals, populations and even whole plant assembly. The influence of trampling, urination and burrowing are also investigated. Finally there is a summary of big mammals' influence in relation to human influences. Key words: Urban forests, herbivory, herb layer, disturbation, nutrients, large mammals

Protection of citizens during emergencies, natural disasters or other critical situations with concentration on South Bohemian towns.
DOBEŠOVÁ, Jana
From the beginning of times people have encountered emergency situations which endanger their lives, health, properties and also the environment. Communities often try to prevent the impact of these situations or at the very least minimize the consequences. Depending on the particular society{\crq}s economic development, various precautionary measures have been implemented. My dissertation work addresses the current laws relating to crisis management in the Czech Republic. Fundamental principles are also explained. Main goals of my work were as following: 1. To compare South Bohemian towns and their respective legislation 2. To administer a questionnaire among a sample population 1. My selection consisted of five towns in the South Bohemian region. These were: Pisek, Jindrichuv Hradec, Sobeslav, Trebon and Cesky Krumlov. Prior to me visiting these towns, I made arrangements with its local representatives, specifically with those responsible for crisis management. I was able to inquire about their processes and conduct interviews. I have concentrated on the following areas: Process of informing population and emergency management Education of citizens, publication and distribution of educational materials School lectures/meetings Crisis management form Structure of emergency management authorities 2. My research focused on the population readiness and responsibilities during crisis and the means by which population is informed of a crisis. Questionnaire was distributed to the employees of local government offices of all five towns, and also to a random sample of citizen in two out of the five towns. I collected 132 questionnaires. My dissertation includes 8 tables and 2 graphs prepared based on the gathered data. Conclusion: Local governments and their employees dedicate significant amount of time and attention to crisis management. They follow the norms and regulations. Existing differences may be discussed and in the future it could facilitate integration of the system and improve the cooperation. Population is well informed of basic safety-principles.

Comparison of certain characteristics of non-profit sector in the CR and the USA
Dobešová, Jana ; Doležalová, Antonie (advisor) ; Sunega, Petr (referee)
Neziskový sektor hraje nejen v České republice, ale také ve všech vyspělých ekonomikách, stále větší roli. Proto je užitečné na jeho existenci a růst reagovat a pomocí analýz, komparací a studií nejen mu, ale celé společnosti, pomoci v jeho poznání. Práce se nejprve zaměřuje na podání stručného historického vývoje, důležitých definic, terminologie, funkcí a teorií vzniku neziskových organizací. Na základě tohoto popisu potom komparuji americký a český model podle os komparace, kterými jsou institucionální formy, financování a oblasti působnosti ziskového sektoru. Hlavním cílem mé diplomové práce je pomocí komparace poukázat na změny a společné rysy, které by mohly pomoci při hledání, poznání a institucionálním ukotvování českého neziskového sektoru.
