Author's Contract Law The aim of the thesis is to analyze legal regulation of license agreements within the legal branch of "droit d"auteur", or "author"s right". The main object of interest is typified license agreement, which serves as a standard contractual type to exercise authors" economic rights to their works. Recently issued Czech Civil Code shall become applicable on January 1, 2014. Unlike the currently applicable Civil Code, which leaves the regulation of license agreements to special acts, the new code includes provisions which regulate license agreements for the whole area of intellectual property, i.e. author"s right, as well as industrial property. This regulation is in line with a tendency to unite provisions that deal with license agreements, since a unification process concerning contract licenses within author"s right, has already happened with the enactment of the current authors" code in the year 2000.

Drápalová, Monika ; Horáček, Vít (advisor) ; Horáček, Tomáš (referee)
Trademarks and their practical use in economic competition The aim of my thesis is to highlight both the possibility of practical use of trademarks in economic competition and the problems associated with use of the trademarks. The thesis is divided into five main chapters. . The first chapter defines which label may or may not become a trade mark and also describes the registration procedure. In this charter I also point to the current conservative approach concerning sound and smell trademarks and try to suggest a possible future legislation, because in my view the trade mark law is constantly evolving and it is necessary to adapt it to the future market needs. This issue is discussed from the national, european and international point of view. The following chapters concentrate on particular ways of use of trademarks in economic competition. The emphasis is placed mainly on two areas - license agreement and protection against unfair competition. The license agreement is currently the most common means by which the industrial rights are transferred. For this reason I try to outline possible problems arising from a conclusion of a license agreement and from its duration; with reference to the current legislation. Very interesting, but in my point of view, rather controversial opinion was expressed...
