Analysis of the impact of village funds as fiscal decentratlization policy on reducing poverty level of rural communities in Indonesia
Anam, Choirul ; Plaček, Michal (advisor) ; Nemec, Juraj (referee) ; Vaceková, Gabriela (referee)
Not only does decentralization transfer of powers and functions from central government to local governments, but also about how the people can stimulate rural development to gradually improve their welfare. In fact, not all countries that implement decentralization get the same results in terms of their impact on economic growth and poverty alleviation. This research applies an exploratory approach that is enhanced by structured interviews and field research, as well as an empirical approach that is strengthened by stepwise regression. The aim of this research is to see the interconnection between village funds policies and poverty alleviation in Indonesia. The results show that per capita village funds can reduce poverty even though it may differ between provinces. However, proportional of village funds has the opposite impact if they are overly dependent on the central government transfers. In addition, some of the research findings appear to contradict the theory due to the influence of the unique character and culture of Indonesian people. The village funds program in Indonesia has become a unique and challenging issue for researchers. Therefore, further research can be done by concentrating on the other impacts of village funds in Indonesia than poverty which is essential to enrich the...

The Airbnb phenomenon and the regulation of short-term shared accommodation in the Czech Republic
Bubeníková, Simona ; Vaceková, Gabriela (advisor) ; Nekola, Martin (referee)
This thesis deals with an issue of short-term shared accommodation with a focus on the phenomenon of Airbnb and its regulations in Prague. The main goal of this paper is to chart the development of short-term shared accommodation in Prague, including the issue of regulations. A partial aim is to examine actors involved in this issue and their attitudes to Airbnb regulations. Another goal is to find out, how other selected European cities that already have an experience with regulations, deal with the issue of Airbnb. Last but not least, I am marginally concerned with how the covid-19 pandemic affected Airbnb and its core business. The analytical part of this paper is performed on the basis of secondary data, which are based on four types of documents: official, archival, virtual documents and mass media outputs. It was found that Prague has a comparable offer on Airbnb (with regard to the number of listings on Airbnb per population) with European cities such as Amsterdam and Barcelona. However, Prague lags far behind in putting regulations into practice. The statements and attitudes of the vast majority of the examined actors show a consensus in the need to introduce a certain degree of regulation. This paper contributes to a better understanding of Airbnb issue on the Prague market and also to a...

Bjaček, Jakub ; Kotrusová, Miriam (advisor) ; Vaceková, Gabriela (referee)
The topic of the diploma thesis is the development of the policy of Industry 4.0 in the Czech Republic. The main idea of this initiative is to respond to the coming fourth industrial revolution, which will affect not only the means of production, but also society. The concept of Industry 4.0 is thus very heterogeneous, affecting not only the change in the means of production and changes in the labor market, but also educational policy or the digitization of public administration. It is therefore an important issue that is the focus of the functioning of a wide range of actors in various areas of public policy. The aim of this diploma thesis is to analyze the agenda of Industry 4.0 with selected main representatives who respond to this topic (from the ranks of formalized institutions). The question that the thesis tries to answer is what we can expect from the coming fourth industrial revolution in the Czech Republic and what threats, and conversely the benefits, can be expected. Especially in the labor market, which poses a specific threat to the Czech Republic, which is a highly industrialized state. The research part is focused on introduction of Industry 4.0 policies in the Czech Republic and its current form. The research was carried mainly through specific policy documents (strategies, action...
