Vliv institucionálního rámce na výkonnost firem v období kontrakce ekonomik
Olbrecht, Vojtěch
Olbrecht, V. Impact of the Institutional Framework on Firm's Performance during the Economic Contraction. Diploma thesis. Brno: Mendel University in Brno, 2015. The diploma thesis focuses on exploring the impacts of the institutional framework on the firm's performance in the stage of economic contraction. The thesis extends current research by using microeconomic approach, the stage of economic contraction and TFP approach. By using panel regression with fixed effects it results in different effects and importance of some of the institutional factors. Political and legal environment is overvalued in the developed countries, in contradiction to the post-transition economies where improvements of this environment could contribute to economic performance. The size of government is overall negatively correlated with the performance while the openness of the economy to the foreign trade is correlated positively. Surprisingly, the worse macroeconomic condition is connected with increased firm's performance.

Labour market, employment and unemployment in the Czech Republic from the perspective of demographic trends
Petýrková, Iva ; Miskolczi, Martina (advisor) ; Šimpach, Ondřej (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is primarily to analyse the size and structure of population in the productive age in 2010-2050. The potential labour force consists of people aged between 20 and 64 years. However, this age is specified later on regarding the increasing number of tertiary educated population and also the shift of the retirement age. Among the main findings is the extension of school years up to 15 years in 2050. The retirement age is considered due to the current pension system for men and women with two children separately. Both cases can be expected to suffer a significant drop of the productive population caused by the population ageing. Moreover, the thesis defines other impacts of population ageing on the labour market in the Czech Republic and summarizes the possible labour market interventions. For example, one of these interventions can be promotion of flexible forms of employment which could achieve economic inactivity decrease. Especially women could benefit from this one. The main data source of this thesis is the Population projection of the Czech Republic to 2100 by the Czech Statistical Office.

Analysis of occurrence of selected kongenital disorders
PRANTLOVÁ, Veronika
The task of this thesis is to elaborate study of insect bite hypersensitivity incidence by the Old Kladrubian white horses. At the beginning of the thesis, problems of congenital disorders in general are summarized, such as origin of the disorders and the forming factors. Further, the insect bite hypersensitivity in horses as an allergic disorder with genetic predisposition is described. Original research concerns with analysis of all actual data of insect bite hypersensitivity incidence in population of Old Kladrubian horse and with analysis of selected horses´ progeny. Incidence of the disorder depends significantly on father of the foal and year of birth. No difference in morbidity between genders of foals was found. At the end the practical breeder´s advices are summarized.

The Czech Republic and the Issue of Refugeeism Compared with Other Types of Immigration After Accession to the European Union
POHLOVÁ, Petra
My thesis is based on description of asylum policy of Czech Republic after year 1989, as well as the fact about influence of entering Czech Republic in EU, according to asylum policy and the number of immigrants. There is a description of immigration after year 1989. There is also a description of the number of immigrants and the common view of these questions. This situation is compared with the situation in similar Belgium. The main purpose of my thesis is to make description in the domain of immigration in both countries and further comparation in the domain of asylum policy, the number of immigrants and their nationality origin. My thesis also includes common asylum and migration policy of EU. According to a fact that immigration to Belgium started earlier and that Belgium is called the "Land of asylum", this country was always very attractive destination with many new opportunities and better standards of life. There was also a big immigration influence to local culture. There is a big difference between Belgium and Czech Republic, because Czech Republic has not had yet open approach to other nationalities. The immigration to Czech Republic started much later and there is no important influence to czech culture. The nationalities of incoming immigrants to both countries are also different.

Differences in the therapeutic and psychosocial rehabilitation activities of psychiatric asylum patients according to their diagnoses
ZELENKOVÁ, Markéta
Abstract Differences in the therapeutic and psychosocial rehabilitation activities of psychiatric asylum patients according to their diagnoses As the main topics of my bachelor{\crq}s thesis, I am investigating psychosocial rehabilitation and therapeutic activities and their use within the framework of rehabilitation of people with a diagnosis within a range of psychotic disorders, neurotic disorders and organic disorders. A chapter on community care represents an important part; it is closely related to the complex rehabilitation system in the treatment of mental disorders. On the last pages I focus on specific communication with people suffering from dementia, psychosis and neurosis. The first goal of the thesis was to find out the differences in therapeutic activities according to diagnoses within a range of psychotic disorders, neurotic disorders and organic disorders. There was a hypothesis linked to the given goal in which I thought that the therapeutic activities realized with the patients would differ according to their diagnoses. The second goal was to find out whether professional staff consider it important to use the possibility of extramural (community) care within the framework of caring for the mentally ill. For this purpose a hypothesis was set up in which I assumed that the professional staff of a psychiatric asylum had a negative view towards using extramural (community) care. The goals of the thesis were achieved. Information was obtained through a quantitative survey, by the method of questioning and the technique of data collection {--} through a questionnaire. The first monitored group consisted of 20 therapists and the second monitored group was made up of 84 nurses working at the Jihlava psychiatric asylum. The survey{\crq}s results confirmed the first hypothesis. The second hypothesis was not confirmed. The findings of this thesis could be used as a source of information, particularly for work therapists and other therapists who, within the framework of psychosocial rehabilitation and therapeutic activities, use many activities such as supporting treatments for mental disorders. The thesis provides an overview of the activities applied in treating mental illnesses. Furthermore, therapists and nurses can use the findings about community care and subsequent services for patients with mental disorders. Not only social workers, but also physicians, therapists and nurses can be the intermediaries of this information for patients and their family members.

Genetická diverzita losa evropského v ČR
Veselý, Jan
The diploma thesis is concentrated on the diversity of Eurasian elk (Alces alces), living in the wild and bred in the zoological gardens in Czech Republic, moreover is the thesis concerned with the damages caused on the population of elks during the migration, caused by the means of transport. The main goal was, however, to chart is genetic variability, estimate its percent occurrence in the wild and analyze the information of its migration in the territory of Czech Republic. The genetic variability and diversity of the Eurasian elk (Alces alces) was investigated by the means of microsatellite markers OarFCB5, T156, BM888, RT1, RT13, T26, RM188, BM1818, ETH225, Haut17. From the amount of ten of microsatellite loci studied, there was no found the polymorphism on the two loci (BM888 a Haut17) of the elks from the forest management of Vyšší Brod (LV). On the elks bred in the zoological gardens (LZ) in Czech Republic, the polymorphism was found on all of the loci. The average heterozygosity found was at the highest on the LZ set of loci (HE = 0,6801 and HO = 0,6833), in comparison to the set LV, where the average levels reached was by HE = 0,5162 and HO = 0,5571. The number of alleles proven in loci with polymorphism on the wild population varied in between 2 to 3 and in the reserved breed in zoological gardens from 5 to 8 alleles. On the basis of the results of genetic parameters it can be determined, that there the influence of inbreeding on the wild population's genetic structure was found. The migration was determined from the data acquired about the move of elk game and from research I conducted on my own. During the last five years there were on the ground of personal investigation, from the questionnaires and from media registered 21 cases of observation of the elk game were registered in terms of our territory and also two collisions between the game and vehicle.

Islamophobia in the Czech Republic: the analysis of local press in the period 1996-2005
Vesecký, Jiří ; Pargač, Jan (advisor) ; Uherek, Zdeněk (referee) ; Matějů, Martin (referee)
In this summary I'd like to recapitulate the structure of this work, in particular the bindings between its parts. In the introduction I've defined islamophobia and relevant terms and presented possible ways of its division. A certain ambiguousness of the word "islamophobia" results from the fact that it's composed of two somewhat different parts. First one is the aversion to Islam and the second is the aversion to Muslims as people, especially immigrants. Both these parts are closely related and are often inseparable. That's why it isn't appropriate to use two separate terms. Nevertheless the difference of these two parts is in many ways similar to the difference of the terms xenophobia and racism (or neoracism). My research implies that in Czech press, the first option, i.e. the negative stereotypization of Islam as a whole, is much more numerous. On the other hand Halliday's concept of division of islamophobia into "strategic" and "populist" is based on historical context and as such is suitable mainly for the assessment of prevailing motivations of islamophobia on the national or larger level. This is also one of the reasons why I presented the history of Muslim presence in our territory, which implies that in Czech republic, contrary to the majority of other European countries, the "strategic"...

Interreligious dialogue and bioethics
RODKOVÁ, Iveta
The diploma thesis deals with the topic of interreligious dialogue and bioethics. The thesis analyses ethical context of specific biomedical issues, namely euthanasia, abortion, assisted reproduction and embryonic stem cells research viewed through the eyes of three world monotheistic religions (Christianity, Judaism and Islam). Sacred books, published documents and further available sources are used to explain the approach of those religions to the bioethical issues (answering the questions of why and how these religions approach the issues). The aim of the theoretical piece of work is to show observed differences and similarities. At the beginning of the thesis there is a general description of the religions in the context of medical ethics. It briefly characterizes religious beliefs and shows documents which these ethical beliefs are based on. The work shows differences but also common features of monotheistic religions. After the religions are discussed in general there is a chapter focused exclusively on interreligious dialogue. The thesis stresses out the importance of an open discussion between religions which leads to unity and reconciliation. Interreligious dialogue represents openness to unknown and willingness to a discussion. It is not possible not to mention a project called Global Ethic by a Swiss professor of theology Hans Küng, who is thoroughly interested in an interreligious dialogue mentioned above. Further chapters of the diploma thesis deal with specific bioethical questions and with the approach of Judaism, Christianity and Islam to these questions. Firstly, the thesis focuses on the issue of euthanasia followed by abortions, assisted reproduction and finally by embryonic stem cells research. The knowledge gained by studying the available sources shows that out of the listed bioethical issues world religions are mostly uniform in the opinion on euthanasia. All the monotheistic religions refer to untouchability and sanctity of human life from its beginning to natural death. It is only God who is a creator and possessor of all creation. That is why euthanasia and assisted suicide is seen negatively and at a distance as an act which does not belong to the hands of man. In 2005 the representatives of the three monotheistic religions in the Czech Republic signed a document in which they express their common negative attitude to the issue of euthanasia. Contrary to the opinion expressing agreement on the end of human life, which is seen by all the religions as the moment of natural death, there is a non-uniform opinion on its beginning. The differences in opinions of Christians, Jews and Muslims on the beginning of human life shape their attitude to abortions, assisted reproductions and also to embryonic stem cells research. In Christianity human life begins at the moment of conception and therefore from ethical point of view it has the most controversial attitude to such medical techniques. The life of the mother is valued in the same way as the life of the fetus. In Judaism an embryo has got lower status than an unborn child, therefore this religion has a slightly more benevolent attitude than Christianity. However, certain boundaries which are discussed below must be followed. In Islam the point crucial for the questions of abortion, assisted reproduction and embryonic cell stems research is when a soul is breathed into a fetus. It is only after this moment when embryo gains the status of a human person and therefore becomes untouchable. Islam and Judaism have a less strict attitude to the bioethical issues (except for euthanasia) than Christianity. The diploma thesis presents a review of opinions and values of certain monotheistic religions on bioethics issues with the concentration on interreligious dialogue. It brings an overview of similarities and differences in ethical opinions.

Energy Conception of Czech Republic - coal as the most important domestic energy resource
Lepeltová, Radka ; Dvořák, Antonín (advisor) ; Hadrabová, Alena (referee)
The state energy conception sets the direction in energy industry and outlines main instruments and trends in this area. The priority of the state energy conception is to reach energy security of the country, which can be ensured by more energy resources of the fuel mix. The main component of the domestic energy mix is brown coal, which is mostly used in brown coal electric works for generating electric energy and heat. Coal mining is and was one of the main elements of Czech Republic's national industry, but there are also negative ecological impacts connected with coal winning. Further coal mining is restricted by so-called territorial ecological limits for brown coal mining that protect the environment and community against the mining consequences. Many of the brown coal supplies can, however, also in future represent an important energy resource, which will enable security, production independence and price availability of energy. At work is further explanation of the limits and progress of breaking the limits. Other energy resources are nuclear energy and renewable energy resources, whose importance rises and which contribute to a balanced energy mix.
