Regional policy of the European Union focused on the member countries of Central and Eastern Europe
Knotková, Pavla ; Jeníček, Vladimír (advisor) ; Abrhám, Josef (referee)
Thesis is focused on regional policy of the European Union (known as cohesion policy). The goal of the regional policy is to reduce regional disparities among the member countries of the European Union. Therefore, regional policy has an important role among other policies of the European Union. In the period from 2007 to 2013, regional spending account for 36% of the EU budget. The recent enlargement to 27 Member States has dramatically increased disparity levels across the EU. The new Member States have lower levels of income per head and employment rates than other EU countries. This thesis is divided into two parts. The first part characterizes development of the regional policy, its principles and financial instruments. The second part describes enlargement of the European Union to 27 member states, its impacts, reform of the regional policy and the time period from 2007 to 2013. Different views on impacts of the regional policy together with short case study are added. The goal of this thesis is to evaluate the convergence process among the old and new Member states.

Mačáková, Veronika ; Abrhám, Josef (advisor) ; Jeníček, Vladimír (referee)
This thesis explains the reasons of the establishment and development of the European Union's policy for economic and social cohesion, the topics it tries to solve, and instruments through which it provides the member states the financial help. Because, as it can be seen from the caption of this thesis, I describe two operational programmes -- Operational Programme Development of Human Resources and Operational Programme Education for Competitiveness, I concentrate on the European Social Fund, as it is the source of the financial help in the Czech Republic for these two operational programmes. That is why this thesis also pays attention to the application of the structural policy in the Czech Republic with the emphasis on the area of education. It introduces the crucial documents needed to be approved as long as we want to receive money from the EU and it deals with the two operational programmes and its coherence. In the last part of this thesis the weaknesses and strenghts of the implementation of those operational programmes are highlighted.
