Why Did Voucher Privatization Occur?
Kohout, Martin ; Šubrt, Jiří (advisor) ; Vlček, Josef (referee)
In this paper I try to analyze all circumstances and threads that led to voucher privatization. I try to analyze factual historical events like for example certain motions in the Civic Forum (Czech: Občanské fórum) within the frame of corporate processes. I observe the shift of power between the majority of citizens and elite and question the legitimity of decisions the leaders of the revolutionary movements make. The power shifting from an individual onto the society served me as an indicator for searching the relations that could had led to the voucher privatization. I try to understand the circle of disidents around Václav Havel and the circle of reformists around Václav Klaus from the sociological perspective and try to apprehend these from tin the light of their organization and opinion coherence. Ideological data of these two groups are compared with the meaning of the public; moreover, I do not restrict myself just to the time after the revolution. I pay attention also to the pre - revolutionary roots of certain social circumstances that influenced the public. I try to find the continuity between the time before the revolution, during the revolution and after the revolution. Naturally it made sense to allude often examples from the history of revolutionary movements. I analyzed the rhetoric...

Path dependency principle in the context of the transformation of Czechoslovak centrally planned economy
Bělohradský, Aleš ; Mlčoch, Lubomír (advisor) ; Schwarz, Jiří (referee)
This work is focused on the economic phenomenon called path dependency, which basically describes how the current economic performance is influenced by the historical evolution. The objective of the work is to examine this principle in changes of property rights in the specific circumstances of the economic and political transition from the centrally planned economy of the communist Czechoslovakia to the capitalist system in the 1990s. The explanation of the principle and its foundation in the theory of the institutional economics, and especially the evolutionary theory of institutions, takes place in the first part. The second part brings the description of the real socialism with the emphasis on its forms of the ownership and the quasi-ownership respectively. To give more specific illustration of the socialist system, the agricultural sector is chosen to be described more precisely. Hence the stress is put on the description of the cooperatives as the major form of a socialist agricultural enterprise. With this theoretical background and with the empirical findings from two former agricultural cooperatives, the main effects of path dependency are delineated in the third part. Finally, the generalization and evaluation of significance of the principle for the economic analysis conclude the study.

Change of theatre management
Němečková, Tereza ; PROKOP, Petr (advisor) ; PLAMÍNEK, Jiří (referee)
In which way lead a successful change of theatre management? This research question has stood at the beginning of my diploma thesis. The role of a theatre manager and its managerial features are concerned in this paper.
I trace a process of change in a theatre management in tree case studies (the theatres "Na zábradlí", "pod Palmovkou" and "na Vinohradech"). The findings are analysed in the context of artistic, public, but also commercial sector.
The case works serve as a means of formulation of so called "Lessons Learned": generalisations of key moments and barriers of successful change which are derived form concrete cases.
The need of managerial approach in a theatre management results from the problems described above. The aim of this thesis is to argue for such an approach which understands management as a particular proficiency with its regular place within the art world.
Since the environment of subsidized organisations is concerned, it is important not to omit the influence of founder as an agent of change. I assume, that we will face up to open competitions for theatre directors instead of system changes.
The crucial aim of this thesis is to identify a process of change, to apprehend its critical points and offer some possible solutions. The second aim is to contribute to a debate on the need of managerial approach in a management of art organisations.

The transformation of the National Theatre and the State Opera from the marketing aspect
Velichová, Irena ; JEŽEK, Vlastimil (advisor) ; ČUŘÍKOVÁ, Tamara (referee)
The primary purpose of the thesis ?Transformation of the National Theatre and the State Opera from the marketing aspect? is to monitor the process of incorporation of the State Opera into the structure of the National Theatre, putting emphasis on the marketing potential of such process.
Evolution of coexistence of the National Theatre with the State Opera sets the topic of transformation into historical consequences and offers the overview of different operational models and cooperation between both institutions.
The core of the thesis is a reflexion of the current marketing of the National Theatre and explanation of the meaning and needs of arts marketing in general, especially mentioning the potential of brand marketing. In the practical part of the thesis I present an idea of a campaign for the opera ensemble of the National Theatre and the State Opera.
I believe that the thesis ?Transformation of the National Theatre and the State Opera from the marketing aspect? will be an asset to all future readers who should be able to look into the process of this transformation and see it not only as a historically and organizationally complicated process but mainly as an opportunity for the National Theatre to redefine mission and target of its marketing strategy.

Transformation of opera ensemble of South Bohemian Theatre?
Krenčíková, Eva ; SRSTKA, Jiří (advisor) ; KOFROŇ, Petr (referee)
Following thesis on opera ensemble of South Bohemian Theatre should bring comparison between current repertory system, potential so-called semi-stagione (this mode is thought to be set after transformation of this opera ensemble) and stagione mode that is typical for running opera production abroad.
The main aim of the thesis is to analyse these models and evaluate them regarding economic, artistic and organizational point of view.
Although it is focused on South Bohemian Theatre in Ceske Budejovice, there are more opera ensembles in regions facing the same problem and asking the same question: which would be the most effective model of running our business?

The analysis of public administration from the perspective of selected national economic parameters in the Czech Republic from 1989 to 2012
Tomanová, Zuzana ; Zeman, Karel (advisor) ; Krebs, Vojtěch (referee)
The Thesis on topic The analysis of public administration from the perspective of selected national economic parameters in the Czech Republic from 1989 to 2012 summarizes these issues in order to understand the complexity of the topic. Those who said the issue more interested, this work should help to summarize the progress and crucial moments of public administration reform in the Czech Republic, to understand the principles and functioning of public administration and allow a comparison of public administration in the context of a centrally planned economy compared to today's economy operating under the market mechanism. The theoretical part covers the economic base of the topic and deals with basic definitions of the public sector, respectively public administration, personnel management and financial flows at all levels of public administration. Following chapters focus on the development of public administration from the beginning of the transformation of the economy in 1989, when the first signs appear necessary of reform public administration, until now. Individual chapters deal with the historical sections of the national economy in order to monitor the selected parameters in correspondence to the gross domestic product of the country, including the legislative framework. The thesis refers to the fact, that the aim of the state is considered to achieve a state of public administration, where it will be termed as a whole to be effective. Unsystematic changes in the performance of public administration are essential factors that make governance unstable and non-transparent. Finding ways of their elimination will be able to increase the efficiency of public administration under the current societal needs.
