Ryčlová, Dorota ; Kysela, Jan (advisor) ; Ondřejková, Jana (referee)
- Direct presidential election in the Czech Republic: reasons, conditions, consequences This diploma thesis is concerned with different aspects of implementation of the direct presidential election in the Czech Republic. It is aimed to discover the actual reasons for passing the Constitutional Act No. 71/2012 Coll., which introduces this institute into the Czech constitutional system. For the purpose of doing so, the thesis is divided into three parts. The first one presents and evaluates particular arguments (historical, political, constitutional, legal etc.), which were used by the proponents of this institute on one hand and by its opponents on the other. The content of the second part is the most extensive as it follows up the comparison of bills attempting to implement the direct presidential election into the Constitutional Act since 2001 up to the present. Therefore this part contains thirteen bills in total, including the one, which later becomes the Act No. 71/2012 Coll. Individual bills are compared and contrasted. The pertinent political and social circumstances accompanying their origin are also briefly mentioned.

Presidential campaign finance in the US: diminishing role of public funding
Slavíčková, Kristýna ; Kotábová, Věra (advisor) ; Švec, Radek (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on public financing of presidential campaigns in the United States and the fact that after decades of functioning successfully the system's use by presidential candidates diminished and virtually vanished in recent years. The aim of the thesis is to identify the particular reasons for this development and to propose suggestions for changes that would eventually make the system functional and lucrative for the candidates again. It sets forth a comprehensive description and analysis of the legislation and Supreme Court rulings concerning presidential campaign financing as well as an overview of the current state of public campaign finance law. It then examines those presidential elections in which some candidate(s) opted out of the public financing, whether for primary or general elections, and tries to find the reason behind the candidates' decisions to opt out. Based on that it determines the reasons which were a common denominator among the presidential candidates and which caused the diminishment of public financing and categorizes them. At the end it proposes possible solutions to these problems and the possibilities of reforming the public financing of presidential elections.

 Abstract
 The

deals
with
the
energy
security
of
the
United
States
of
America
at
the
 beginning
 of
 the
 21st
 century.
 The

 part
 of

 The

 The

 of
 the

 focuses
 specifically
 on
 the
 situation
 of
 the
 United

 of
 America.
 It
 identifies
 the
 challenges
 to
 energy
 security
 the
 country
faces,
mainly
the
high
level
of
dependence
on

and
 provides
an
overview
of
available
solutions.
 The
 third
 part
 is
 a
 case
 study
 that

Matiášková, Lenka ; Kysela, Jan (advisor) ; Ondřejková, Jana (referee)

It appears always in connection with the presidential elections, but also as a part of the parliamentary election campaign.

What this step will have impact on functioning of the Czech political system, will turn up in 2013 when the authority will take the first Czech president elected in direct elections. But the majority of constitutional lawyers and political scientists agree that the introduction of direct elections in the Czech Republic is not solving the existing problems, and therefore they express fears how the chase will affect the functioning of the system as a whole. Keywords: direct presidential elections, powers, legitimacy, political system, presidential campaign
