Genderové rozdíly na trhu práce
Pecháčková, Monika ; Klosová, Anna (advisor) ; de Lara Resende, José Guilherme (referee)
This thesis focuses on gender based differences in occupational allocation in Central-European countries, i.e. in Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia. The main goal is to find out how much of the gender differences is related to women being equipped with higher/lower human capital in comparison to men. This thesis uses data from 2010 Life in Transition Survey provided by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. Focus will be placed on white/blue collar occupations split. For the empirical analysis an extension of the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition for binary dependent variable model provided by Fairlie (2005) will be used.

Measles - possibilities of managing unsatisfactory epidemiological situation in Europe
MERVARDOVÁ, Eliška
This thesis focuses on the epidemiological situation in the incidence of measles in the Czech Republic and possibilities of influencing their unfavourable situation in Europe. Measles is a highly contagious disease of viral origin, which has a significant impact on the health of the child population in particular. The most effective protection against the measles is vaccination. The introduction of measles vaccination positively affected the epidemiological situation in the world. Priority of the WHO (World Health Organization, WHO, hereinafter) is elimination of the measles. The long term goal of the WHO and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC hereinafter) was the elimination of measles in the European region by 2010. This goal was not achieved. The cause was low immunization coverage of certain population groups in several European countries. The prerequisite of achieving elimination of measles is that the vaccination coverage in the population is high. Many countries, thanks to effective vaccination strategy, succeeded in reducing the incidence of measles. In the years 2007- 2009 the historically lowest incidence, of less than 10 measles cases per million inhabitants, in the European region was achieved. In subsequent years, there was again a rise in measles morbidity. A repeated rise in cases of the disease is attributed to the expansion of social groups where vaccination coverage was inadequate in terms of achieving herd immunity. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is divided into four main chapters. The first chapter describes the history of measles, the origin of the name of the disease and the first mention of it. The second theoretical chapter is devoted to the clinical characteristics of measles. In subchapters it describes the clinical picture of the disease, possible complications of the disease, how the infection is diagnosed and what treatment options there are. The third chapter defines the epidemiological characteristics of the disease. The subheads are aimed at the cause of the disease, possible ways of transmission, incubation period, period of communicability, susceptibility and incidence of this disease. At last, the fourth chapter of the theoretical part desribes possible epidemiological measures, which include measles surveillance, preventive and repressive measures and vaccination. The practical part of the thesis was elaborated through quantitative research - secondary data analysis. Analysed data were obtained from the information system for reporting and recording infectious diseases EPIDAT on Regional Hygiene Station of South Bohemian Region, based in Budweis and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control. The data on population, in terms of age groups and individual regions, were drawn from the demographic yearbooks, which are available on the website of the Czech Statistical Office. The resulting data were subsequently processed in tabular and graphical forms in Microsoft Excel. The research objectives were: 1) to set charting trends in the incidence of measles in the Czech Republic and Central Europe over the period 2004-2013, 2) to compare the incidence of measles in the individual regions of the Czech Republic, and 3) to identify the reasons for gaps in vaccination coverage against measles in the South Bohemian Region. Based on the above stated objectives, the five research questions were defined. The results are intended to highlight the issues of possible adverse influence on the epidemiological situation in the incidence of measles in Europe. This thesis can be used as a source of information on trends in incidence, vaccine development and immunization status for measles.

Spatial polarity of socioeconomic differentiation in Hungary
KEBZA, Martin
This thesis is devoted to the study of spatial polarity socioeconomic differentiation of Hungary. The findings of this phenomenon serves a number of statistically-based indicators which are analyzed. These indicators are divided into three groups (economic, social and other) for comprehensive look at differencial in Hungary. Also, this text seeks to define the determinants of the polarity. Based on an analysis of indicators is came to a synthesis, which aims to define more developed parts of Hungary and the less developed.

Territorial polarity socio-economic differentiation in Slovenia
PESSR, František
Bachelor thesis is focused on territorial polarity socioeconomic differentiation of Slovenia based on spatial analysis of selected indicators. The main goal of this work is the detection of regional disparities and identifying determinants that affect their formation. Individual indicators represent a wide range of geographic realities. According to their nature, indicators are divided into three categories on the economic, social and others. Among the selected indicators include, for example, gross domestic product (GDP), unemployment rate, the total increase or degree of religiosity. The work is mainly concentrated on the territory of Slovenia, but it is also important in a European context. Final results are the determinants creating territorial differentiation and display a degree of territorial polarity.

Territorial polarity socio-economic differentiation in Austria
LEŽÁKOVÁ, Lucie
The main topic of this bachelor thesis is territorial polarity socio-economic differentiation in Central Europe, particularly in Austria. The main concept of this work is to follow the current status of this phenomenon on the basis of spatial analysis of selected socio-geographic indicators. The indicators are divided into three groups - social, economic and others. Examples of indicators that are used in the work are gross domestic product, unemployment, average wages, divorce, overall population growth rate, or the proportion of foreigners. Included of this bachelor thesis is a chapter dealing with Austria in a European context. The work would ultimately be determined by the determinants that influence the current status and characteristics of Austrian regions and define the degree of polarity.

Global Economy Outlook - September 2014
Česká národní banka
The September issue of Global Economic Outlook presents its regular overview of recent and expected developments in selected territories, focusing on key economic variables: inflation, GDP growth, leading indicators, interest rates, exchange rates and commodity prices. In this issue, we also analyse the competitiveness and dynamics of goods exports from Central European EU member states. We find, among other things, that the current dependence of Central and South-Eastern European countries on global demand is higher than in the final pre-crisis years.

Territorial polarity socio-economic differentiation in Poland
VÁCHA, Ladislav
The bachelor thesis focuses on territorial polarity socio-economic differentiation in Poland, which is studied by way of spatial analysis of selected indicators. The main objective is detection of regional disparities and searching of determinants that are contributing to their genesis. Indicators are selected so that expressed a broad geographical reality. They are divided by character into three categories economic, social and others. They include for example gross domestic product per capita, unemployment, total population growth, density of rail network or results of parliamentary elections. Thesis focuses primarily on the territory of Poland, but attention is fixed on European context too. Finally results include detection of main determinants and degree of territorial polarity.
