The theoretical chapters deal with the characteristics of the social circus, its forms, target groups, and focus on the key principles of the instructor's work and competencies. The thesis further explores the potential of the social circus for the emancipation of the individual and social change and describes the connections between social circus and the field of education.

Holub, Štěpán ; Kopecký, Martin (advisor) ; Sharp, Vladimír (referee)

Taking into account the diversity among administrative proceedings, it is essential to discuss the individual types of the incriminate proceedings, eventually their specific phases, and simultaneously to provide connections between individual evidence institutes. Also, possible discrepancies in evidence, or perhaps complete absence of evidence, should not be omitted since the legislator has not established exclusive obligation, even though the evidence poses significant part of the proceedings. The presented thesis is divided into five chapters. The first chapter thoroughly reviews the principles of administrative proceedings, which are tightly connected with the process of taking of evidence. The second chapter discusses the terms in the context of evidence, whereas such terms are not explicitly stated in the law. These terms are defined based on the jurisprudence and specialized literature. The third chapter covers process stamping of individual phases in taking of evidence, which extends to the field...

The problems of the effectivity of the administrative proceedings on offences detected by the control weighing of the vehicles Abstract The topic of the thesis is the identification and analysis of problematic areas of checkweighing of road vehicles, which are regulated in particular by Act No. 13/1997 Coll., on Roads, as amended, and the presentation of proposals for their elimination. In order to identify problematic areas, communication with the administrative authorities responsible for the checkweighing process in the Czech Republic and an analysis of previous and current legislation, expert and commentary literature were used. The introduction of the thesis describes the concept of dividing the checkweighing of road vehicles into low-speed and high-speed weighing categories, as implemented by the legislator in the Road Act. The first category is the so-called "low speed" weighing, where the road vehicle is weighed at zero or virtually zero speed while the driver of the vehicle being checked is diverted from his direction of travel during the check. The second method is the so-called 'high-speed' weighing, where the vehicle is weighed during the journey by the weighing devices built into the road body and is thus not diverted from its current direction of travel. The most problematic areas of the legal...
