The Causes of the Deterioration of Trade Relations Between the US and China During the Donald J. Trump Administration
Broda, David ; Hornát, Jan (advisor) ; Sehnálková, Jana (referee)
1 Abstract The thesis' main focus is Donald J. Trump's administration's trade policy towards People's Republic of China. Since taking office, Trump has been striving to turn the trade policy towards PRC into a more protectionist one. His argument is that China's economic prosperity is acquired through unfair trade practices, which damages the economy of USA. Since the beginning of 2018 up until the end of 2019, Trump imposed high tariffs on numerous Chinese goods and PRC does the same in return. The resulting tit-for-tat policies cause the deterioriation of the two countries' trade relations. The thesis searches for the main causes of Trump's trade policy towards PRC, which is in comparison with the two preceding presidential administratives more aggressive. The thesis' primary hypothesis assumes that the cause lies in the risk that the strengthening China poses on the US hegemonic role in the international order. The thesis confirms this hypothesis on the basis of the theory of relative gains, hegemonic stability and comparative advantage. The hypothesis is supported with examples concerning US economy, security, institutional power and legitimacy. 2 Title: The Causes of the Deterioration of Trade Relations Between the US and China During the Donald J. Trump Administration Author: David Broda

Commercial Terms and Clauses in Business Transactions
Ševečková, Jelizavěta ; Horáček, Tomáš (advisor) ; Pelikán, Robert (referee)
1 Abstract Commercial Terms and Clauses in Business Transactions This diploma thesis is focused on the topic of commercial terms and clauses in business transactions. Legislation of commercial terms remains concise, but it contains some news in comparation with the previous legislation valid until January 1st 2014. A major novelty is the issue of conflicts of commercial terms (the battle of forms), the rules for unilateral change and also newly grounded content corrections in the form of surprising arrangements. This fact provides a space for professional literature to create a variety of views and answers to the questions that legal practice provides. Today, commercial terms are a common part of contracts. Using the terms greatly accelerates the contracting process and reduces the costs. Commercial clauses contained in some interpretative rules are also frequently used, mainly in the international business. The aim of this thesis is to analyse how business law experts respond the questions regarding to commercial terms and clauses. As a part of my work, I have also looked at the legislative solutions in the UN Convention on the International Sale of Goods CIGS, the Principles of international trade agreements UNIDROIT and the Principles of European contract law PECL. In the first chapter I defined the...
