Šuráňová, Petra ; Kadeřábková, Jaroslava (advisor) ; Nadymáček, František (referee)
This diploma thesis is a comprehensive and up-to-date review of public private partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects at the municipal level in Germany. Public private partnerships use the know-how and the skills of the private sector for the construction and operation of infrastructure and for the long-term provision of public services. The overall goal of this thesis is to discuss the municipal government's approach to PPP infrastructure projects. The theoretical part of this thesis includes informations and fundamental characteristics of public private partnership project types and the most widely used financial instruments in Germany, as well as the obstacles, challenges and prospects of success for the PPP Programme. The thesis further deals with the legislation and the institutional framework of this cooperation, including the establishment of the Partnerschaften Deutschland und other PPP units in central and local government to promote and manage projects. In particular we focus on the possibility of the involvement of private partners in public private partnerships to clear the backlog of investment and to satisfy local authority investment needs. The empirical part of this work describes the efficient, beneficial and cost-effective delivery of what is currently one of Germany's biggest PPP projects in the field of public- sector building construction: refurbishing, financing and operating the 90 schools in the district of Offenbach in the south of Hesse.

Education as A Publicly Provided Private Good
Nečasová, Romana ; Heřmanský, Pavel (advisor) ; Mikuláštík, Robert (referee)
This paper explores the relationship between education and public sector. It examines broadly accepted notion that education is a legitimate and necessary function of the state. The notion is often based upon these reasons: an educated individual brings whole society a positive externality; the market will not provide equal opportunities; and education is a good which should be consumed by everyone. The study hence examines whether the market really fails in this area and whether the state provision is the best solution. Education is a politically sensitive topic, thus there exists social approach besides the economic one. Using historical line of a Czech school system, this paper shows how was the social approach formed and how it looks like today. It is concluded that public education is not the ideal form and possible solutions are propounded.

Kuglerová, Radka ; Mates, Pavel (advisor) ; Janoušková, Alena (referee)
Práce se snaží reagovat na aktuální otázku, týkající se modernizace veřejné správy a s ní spojenou aplikaci metod managementu kvality ve veřejné správě. Zvláštní pozornost je věnována Modelu CAF (Common Assessment Framework), který byl vyvinut jako nástroj sebehodnocení speciálně pro veřejný sektor. V České republice byl tento model doposud aplikován především na úrovni samosprávných a ústředních správních úřadů. Vzhledem k možnosti implementovat tento model v nejrůznějších částech veřejného sektoru, se práce snaží upozornit na vhodnost využití Modelu CAF i v oblasti vzdělávání. Pro jeho snazší aplikaci ve školách jsou uvedeny i praktické příklady důkazů, které jsou důležitým podkladem pro hodnocení v Modelu.
