The state's essence and function in the Social Teaching of the Church
Šabatka, Michal ; Kolář, Petr (advisor) ; Kučera, Rudolf (referee)
Over a century of the Catholic C hurch's social teaching is a topic of many economical and sociological studies. However, there is an absence of a compact political scientific view on the basis and principles of the Church's social doctrine. A description and evolution of the dimensions of the C hurch's social teaching seen from the view of political is the topic of this thesis. The C hurch's social teaching represents a compact group of documents, although different in some details, in which the Catholic Church expresses its view on economical and political aspects of human existence. A primary resource for C h u rch 's teaching in this field is the aristotle-thomistic philosophical reflexion of human social existence that considers some human anthropological natures to be essential for a determination of his social existence. The subject of the C hurch's social doctrine therefore represents a compact system in its historical perspective suited to its historical operation.

Changes of the vegetation of wet meadows depending on management
HORNÍK, Jan
Central Europe wet meadows are characterized by considerable species richness. The biodiversity maintenance of the wet meadows is connected with regular management (i.e. grazing or mowing). As their area drastically decreased due to changes in land use in the last century, they have become the object of interest among scientists, conservation biologists. This thesis is composed of three original studies which are focused on escribing diversity patterns of the whole spectra of wet meadows at landscape level and dynamic of their changes depending on different management regimes (mowing/abandonment,fertilizing/unfertilizing). The synthesis of these studies reveals the description of the processes underlying the wet meadows species loss depending on land use changes and proposes the principles for sustainable conservation management.
