Tomšová, Zuzana ; Matoušková, Milada (advisor) ; Ferbar, Petr (referee)
Long-term and intensive human use of watercourses has led to their considerable degradation. Recently, there has been an effort to improve the ecological status of aquatic ecosystems, based on studies of hydromorphological characteristics of natural watercourses and identification of reference conditions. The aim of this thesis was the hydromorphological survey and an identification of reference conditions of the Jizera River. The selection of sites suitable for identification of reference status was based on pre-set criteria determined on remote sensing data, which eliminated significant anthropogenic impacts on the channel and floodplain. The survey using River Habitat Survey (Environmental Agency, 2003), Hydroecological Monitoring (Langhammer et al., 2014) and REFCON (Šmerousová a Matoušková, 2014a) methods was conducted in selected sites. Sites where hydromorphological conditions correspond with very good class, according to Hydroecological Monitoring, were used for identification of the type-specific reference conditions. Physico-chemical characteristics according to ČSN 757221 (1998) and Rosendorf et al. (2011) and the biological quality element macroinvertebrates according to Opatřilová et al. (2011) were also evaluated. Physico-chemical characteristics reached class I - II (ČSN, 1998) and...

Kunertová, Tereza ; Tomášek, Michal (advisor) ; Smolek, Martin (referee) ; Štefko, Martin (referee)
The author in its Dissertation thesis deals with the concept of worker under the free movement rights in EU law. Following the introduction, the thesis itself focuses on the positive and negative delimitation of the concept. One of the core chapters of the "positive part" tries to find an answer on the research question whether any "Keck-like" principle exists as a criterion for defining obstacles to the free movement of workers. The aim of the chapter is to find an answer what shall be subsumed under the obstacles to free movement of workers and what are Member States left with to regulate freely on their territories. In regard with the negative delimitation of the concept, the author deals with the diversion between workers and non-economically active citizens of the EU.

Information on the environment
Švecová, Klára ; Franková, Martina (advisor) ; Humlíčková, Petra (referee)
Although these days, we can perceive the right for environmental information as something automated and quite natural in a democratic society, we must realize that it was far from it in the past. Hand in hand with the principle of secretiveness of state administration, the public had virtually no possibility to obtain information concerning not only the state of the environment but also general information concerning almost anything. It is not surprising after all because before 1989, neither the general right for information nor the right for environmental information were protected by law, less alone by the constitution. Nevertheless, the democratic changes which took place after the Velvet Revolution produced changes also in the field of the right for information and this right was, both generally - as a right for information, and specifically - as a right for environmental information, included in the legal regulation of the greatest legal force, the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms, which became a part of the constitutional order of the Czech Republic on the basis of the resolution of the Czech National Council presidium No. 2/1993 Coll. On the basis of its constitutional protection, the right for environmental information was provided for also by law (Act No. 123/1998 Coll.) and...

The role of agriculture in the process of Spain's entry into the EC
Sýkora, Filip ; Perottino, Michel (advisor) ; Tomalová, Eliška (referee)
Spain sent its application for EC membership in 1977, but was admitted only in 1986 after complicated entry negotiations. One of the most disputed topics concerning the Spain's application to the EC was agriculture. This bachelor thesis examines the importance of agricultural sector in the process of integration of Spain in the EC, namely expectations of membership in EC for agricultural sector, the attitude of older EC member countries during negotiations and eventually the changes in Spain's agricultural sector after the entry into the EC. The thesis strives to verify the assumption that a good deal of motivation for the EC membership came from expectations that the entry into the EU would bring intense capital investment and would open new markets for Spanish agricultural produce, meanwhile southern EC's feared high competition of the Spanish agriculture and their consent with further enlargement was contingent on either concessions by Spain in other fields or structural changes in EC's policies. A part of the hypothesis is also the assumption that even though Spain was faced with long transition periods, Spanish agriculture mostly benefitted from the entry into the EC and experienced further modernization. Keywords Agriculture, Common Agricultural Policy, regional policy, EC, EEC, EU, Spain
