State and adults education, historical, systematic and comparative aspects in CR
Lidová, Magdaléna ; Beneš, Milan (advisor) ; Neusarová, Jana (referee)
Content of the thesis is to chart and summarize development of adults' education in Czech Republic and its wider systematic and comparative context. The thesis is structured in eight main units, which contain theoretical accesses, historical difficulties in adults' education, legislation and also current situation in development of adults' education. Finally we have in education big reserves, but on the other hand we have also big possibilities in improvement the education as the channel to break the problem on the labor market and to increase the individual careers. In spite of the problem in development of the adults' education in Czech Republic we still can see that the possibility of the education is increasing by the optimalization of supply of the additional education for the big part of the population.

Creative Destruction Within the Automotive and Energy Industry - Sustainable Electric Mobility as a Political-Economic Challenge for the EU
Vejbor, Jan ; Rovná, Lenka (advisor) ; Chatard, Benoit (referee)
The diploma thesis "Creative Destruction Within The Automotive and Energy Industry - Sustainable Electric Mobility As a Political And Economic Challenge for the EU" deals with the issue of the impacts on the political and economic area caused by technological innovations. The subject of the study is the personal motorised transport with its key elements: automotive industry, oil industry, energy industry and state administration. The goal is to introduce the reader the development of the personal motorised transport as a concept of "major innovation" of the Joseph Schumpeter's economic theory. The binding of the two innovations of (a) automobiles propelled by internal combustion engines with (b) the refined crude oil products gave way to a new economic cycle. The integral part of every economic cycle represents the "creative destruction", i.e. the fall of old structures and the rise of new ones. In the domain of personal transport, automobiles devoured not only the animal propelled transportation, but the successfully expanding market of electric vehicles, too. Mainly due to the ecological and supply problems of the fossil fuels, electric vehicles cars are currently witnessing a period of a strong publicity and technological success. Nevertheless, their accession on the market and hence a new economic cycle...

The Slovak republic and assurance of energy security
Auxtová, Ľubica ; Bič, Josef (advisor) ; Horák, Jiří (referee)
The issue of energy security is becoming increasingly discussed topic. Secure and continuous supplies of energy resources are in the interest of every country. This bachelor thesis concerns about energy situation of Slovak Republic as of the member of European Union. The first chapter describes current fuel-energy balance of Slovakia, state of national resources and strategic energy resources supplies and brings up the question of saving in still energetically highly demanding Slovak economy. The second chapter deals with European energy policy and it's context for Slovak politics and briefly describes important adopted documents. The thesis is terminated by the analysis of Slovak energy policy - a country with exclusive supplier of fosil fuels and indicates perspectives and reccomendations into the near future.

Subsidy competition for spillovers from inward foreign direct investment
Havránek, Tomáš ; Benáček, Vladimír (referee) ; Cahlík, Tomáš (advisor)
The first part conducts a meta-analysis of literature on intra-industry productivity spillovers from foreign direct investment. Apart from the traditional approach, robust meta-regression, random effects model, and probit meta-regression are employed. Results of combined significance analysis are mixed but it is apparent that papers published in leading academic journals tend to report rather insignificant results. Our findings suggest that cross-sectional and industry-level studies are likely to find relatively strong spillover effects, and that the choice of proxy for foreign presence is important. The pattern, however, seems to weaken over time. Contrary to previous studies, evidence for publication bias was not detected. The second part examines the microeconomic motivation of governments to provide tax incentives for foreign direct investment. The author applies the classical models of oligopoly to subsidy competition, endogenousing investment incentives, but leaving tax rates exogenous. According to the conventional wisdom, subsidy competition leads to overprovision of incentives. The results suggests that, in the oligopolistic framework, supranational coordination can either decrease or increase the supply of subsidies. Further, in the setting of subsidy regulation, the host country's corporate...

Jsou pražští žebráci jako newyorští taxikáři?
Šilhavá, Dana ; Bartoň, Petr (advisor) ; Janíčko, Martin (referee)
I explore Prague beggars' decision making about their daily work hours. Begging is posited as supplying a service, in the case of Prague with barriers to entry on the production side, with the Charles Bridge as the extreme monopoly example. Financial analysis of the self-employed beggars' wages, expenses and wage rate determinants offers many insights about the workings of the market. I contrast 2 possible models of labor supply: intertemporal substitution and income targeting, representing respectively the concepts of maximizing and satisficing: Maximizers adjust their day's work-hours to the days' varying wage rate, whereas satisficers bracket decisions narrowly and set daily income targets to be reached. 37 of the 43 Prague beggars sampled are found to be satisficers in much the same way as New York City cabdrivers (Camerer 1997); however, this is often a perfectly rational response to the specific constraints of the beggar's profession (e.g. social tax, lack of savings opportunities), satisficing is thus much more justifiable in their case.

NEWSROOM OF TV NOVA AT THE BEGINNING OF THE 21 ST CENTURY
Paráčková, Markéta ; Němcová Tejkalová, Alice (advisor) ; Lokšík, Martin (referee)
Bachelor thesis "Newsroom of TV Nova at the Beginning of the Second Decade of the 21st Century" describes everyday life in a modern private television's newsroom in the age of speed, technical achievements and visual attraction. It also defines important aspects of daily work in the newsroom and interactions among its members. TV Nova's newsroom produces the most watched news cast in the Czech Republic; however it does not contain tens of reporters. Chamber character of the newsroom reflects in friendly relationships and close cooperation among all its members. This limits rivalry to a certain degree. Newsroom TV Nova, considering several news cast produced during the day, works constantly. Except of the weekends, news for Breakfast with Nova are prepared during the night and there are preparation for afternoon and evening news casts running since early morning. Therefore, the newsroom is never empty. Demanding everyday working hours have built a certain routine in numerous reporters. Those, who work here for many years, even suggest feelings of "burn out". Freshmen on the other hand consider working scheme appropriate.

Low Temperature Fuel Cells H2-O2 with Anionic and Bipolar Membrane
Barath, Peter ; Sedlaříková, Marie (advisor)
The doctoral thesis deals with investigation of the catalysts and ionexchanege membranes for fuel cells H2-O2. The work contains the basic principles of chemical reactions, thermodynamic aspects and kinetic properties in PEM fuel cells.Ion-exchagers based on fluorinated polymer sulfonic acids known as NAFION are used in most cases. These compounds are very expensive. Also a strong corrosive attribute requires platinum as a catalysator. These facts make the membrane fuel cells fully non-competetive with e.g. internal combustion engine in spite of all ecological advantages of this electrical power source. The subject of doctoral thesis is research and development of compounds for the composite electrode materials base on NiOx, Ni-Pd and Raney Ni suitable as catalysts a nd alkaline or bipolar ionexchange membranes for electrochemical fuel cells.

How to properly adjust eating manners for dancer´s life
Tomášková, Lucie ; FRIČOVÁ, Marie (advisor) ; ČERNÁ, Jana (referee)
My master´s thesis is focused on dancers and their eating manners. There is a big range of problems there, I am focusing here on properly feeding adult dancers. Different works are working with the other problems as a feeding adolescent dancers, eating disorders etc. My inspiration for this thesis was proper fueling athletes, because both of them sport as well as a dance are hard physical work, energetic requests on the body are equal.

Upbringing and reaching of persons with autistic spectrum disorders
Vocelová, Anna ; Reichel, Jiří (referee) ; Šnýdrová, Ivana (advisor)
The diploma thesis "Upbringing and teaching of persons with Autistic Spectrum Disorders" deals not only with diagnostics of individual autistic disorders, but also with pedagogical and educational approaches, integrating of autistic persons into the normal society, possibility to use their abilities etc. The Autistic Spectrum Disorders include Autism, Atypical Autism, Asperger syndrome, Rett syndrome and childhood disintegrative disorder. All these are among pervasive developmental disorders that typically appear within the first three years of life. the early examination is very important, otherwise the child can be misdiagnosed as mentally retard. Scientific studies showed, that many individuals with autism are not retarded, but in fact, they are unable to give their answers accurately for the determination of their iq in some intelligence tests. Autistic children and adults typically have difficulties in verbal and non-verbal communication, social interactions, and leisure or play activities. Relevant behavioral or cognitive intervention can help children gain get self-care, social, and communication skills. Only few people with autism live independently after reaching adulthood, however, but some of them become successful and they are relatively highfunctioning. However, many people with this diagnosis...

Institutional arbitration proceedings
Veselovský, Jaromír ; Zoulík, František (referee) ; Smolík, Petr (advisor)
101 Resumé Institutionalized Arbitration In my thesis I deal with current development of arbitration. I chose this topic due to increasing common interest to solve disputes trough the arbitration proceedings. Arbitration itself represents one of the forms of alternative dispute resolution which is more and more applicable in practice. This trend sources from the fact that arbitration is faster and explicitly more flexible than the common civil proceedings. Arbitration offers an alternative to civil proceedings and it is popular tool for dispute resolution, especially as for the business law disputes. Enactment of law No. 216/1994 Coll., Arbitration act, represented a significant shift in the applicability of arbitration comparing the previous legal regulation. Aforementioned act introduced applicability of arbitration even among the domestic subjects and broaden the possibility to resolve disputes outside the state court system which in fact contributed to stabilization of business environment. Regarding the fact that proceedings in front of permanent arbitration courts in the Czech Republic, same as other foreign arbitration institutions brings the parties particular advantages, I focused on the institutionalized arbitration. My determination was also influenced by the fact that this thesis should have...
