Košacký, Marcel ; Hlavačka, Milan (advisor) ; Pokorný, Jiří (referee)
This thesis attempts to capture the development of the position of civil engineers, who tried to achieve the position of an academic educated elite in the society of the 2nd half of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. The complete professionalisation of engineers was the condition "sine qua non" to the recognition of civil engineers as part of the academic intelligentsia, and that was one of the main reasons why civil engineers sought to enter the municipal government. The aim of the thesis is to complete the research of the transformation of the municipal government from the "honorationes" into the "executive" government in the city of Prague. The thesis describes the historic development of the technical intelligentsia as a new part of academic educated elite, it shows the reasons that led to the engagement of civil engineers in the process of the modernization of the city, and especially shows the rivalry between them and the jurists. The example of engineer Jan Kaftan shows a successful career of one technician, who thanks to, among other skills, his technical knowledge, was elected to the Austrian parliament. The thesis describes as well the transformation of the municipal economic policy, that was influenced by the development of the technology and by the effect of civil...

Hošková, Alžběta ; Kotrusová, Miriam (advisor) ; Dobiášová, Karolína (referee)
Diploma thesis Local Family Policy deals with family support provided by municipalities and other institutions on the local level. The thesis is based on the assumption that in the society there should be a family-friendly environment, which supports them and appreciates their effort. The local level of local family policy is very important for creating such an environment. Next assumption of the thesis is that policy measures take effects not only instrumentally, but great parts of their effect are also symbolical messages sent towards target groups. The thesis focuses on a quick analysis of stakeholders, who intervene into local family policies, describes main activities of municipalities in the field of family policy, identifies the best practice models and analyses existing barriers.

Krejčová, Jitka ; Vymětal, Petr (advisor) ; Štěpanyová, Gabriela (referee)
The main aim of the diploma thesis is to demonstrate different views on transparency and on instruments of strengthening transparency. Using my own developed methodology of evaluation the transparency of municipalities based on criteria analysis the thesis seeks to find out an answer to the research question: How much are municipalities transparent by themselves in the publishing of information to citizens and how easy or difficult is it for citizens to control the administration of the municipality? The thesis is structured into four chapters. The first one deals with theoretical definition of transparency and its instruments, the second one with functioning of municipal government and its possible control mechanisms. The next chapter represents the developed methodology. It served to analyze and evaluate the transparency of the three monitored municipalities in the case study of the Pribram micro region, the last chapter. For processing the case study and followed analysis I used the open data accessible for public on the municipal web portals of Pribram, Dobris and Sedlcany.
