Sociology of Food - Vegetarianism as a Specific Phenomen
LAPEŠOVÁ, Miroslava
The Diploma Thesis "Sociology of Food - Vegetarianism as a Specific Phenomenon" consists of a theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part aims at the basic information relating to the sociology of food and the lifestyle. The consequent chapters deal with vegetarianism. The practical part brings the presentation of the results reached. The primary data collection utilized the quantitative research, the questioning method and the questionnaire technique. The questionnaire was distributed, in particular, via the Internet, in collaboration with the discussion forums of healthy diet and the vegetarianism forums. Also, within the Yoga system, in a daily life it was spread into all the Yoga Centres in the Czech Republic. Furthermore, the questionnaire was spread in the healthy diet shops and in the healthy canteen in České Budějovice. The research set was made up by vegetarians from all over the Czech Republic regardless of age, sex or any other criteria. In total 421 questionnaires were returned to be utilized for the research, however, 74 of them could not be used at all due to the incorrect or insufficient data completion or illegibility. Thus the research utilized 347 questionnaires, i.e. 82.4 %. The aim of the Diploma Thesis was to ascertain how the phenomenon of nourishment influences the lifestyle of a vegetarian. Consequently, other two goals were set. Partial goal 1: Monitoring of vegetarianism within the Czech Republic from the point of view of vegetarians. Partial goal 2: Description of contemporary trends within vegetarian nourishment. Evaluation of positives and negatives of such nourishment. I assume the goals of the Thesis have been fulfilled. In connection with the goal of the Thesis the hypothesis arose: Vegetarianism as the choice of nourishment is simultaneously a choice of a specific lifestyle (e.g. the style of housing, leisure time, so-called life philosophy, etc.). This hypothesis was acknowledged from the results ascertained. The Diploma Thesis results can serve for the further research and a wider exploration of this field. Furthermore, they will utilised for the needs of the vegetarian centres and, thanks to the scope of the research set, they can be intended to be published in professional periodicals.

Development and maintenance of addictive behaviour in terms of psychoanalysis
Tomášková, Eva ; Hajný, Martin (referee) ; Kalina, Kamil (advisor)
In the area of addictive behaviour, psychoanalytic approaches are very often criticized or completely neglected.

In the therapy they could help to reveal inner conflicts and traumas, and to facilitate their understanding and acceptance. The main aim of my thesis is to illustrate the contribution of psychoanalytic approaches in the treatment of addiction. Furthermore an effort is made to point out, that if the psychotherapy is enriched by psychoanalysis, and further criteria are fulfilled, the treatment can acquire a deeper meaning, and the probability of its efficiency increases.

Electronic trading with an international element: the jurisdiction of the state and the conception of business activities on the Internet
Vondřich, Lukáš ; Brodec, Jan (advisor) ; Dobiáš, Petr (referee)
INTERNET BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS WITH AN INTERNATIONAL ELEMENT The recent developments in technology have raised new forms of electronic communication and business strategies on the Internet, in particular the direct e-commerce operated through dynamically generated websites. As a consequence, the suitability of traditional legal norms has been challenged, including the rules governing jurisdiction. The law therefore tries to respond by adoption of new legal concepts and principles or adaptation of the old ones. One of them is the concept of directing business activities, which was incorporated into EU law in relation to the special jurisdictional rules protecting the consumers of the member states under the Brussels Regulation. Accordingly, the aim of the thesis is to characterize the nature of the concept of directing business activities under the article 15 of the Brussels Regulation, as well as to identify the relevant criteria as to its fulfilment, all in the context of the disputes arising from the consumer contracts concluded as a result of the business activities directed towards the consumers of a member state on the Internet. The first section of the thesis deals with the traditional basis of the state's sovereignty and jurisdictional rules, whereas the second section identifies the specific nature...

Optimum currency area - reality in eurozone
Hanousek, Karel ; Žamberský, Pavel (advisor) ; Machytka, Daniel (referee)
My bachelor paper deals with a question, if the European monetary union follows the Optimum Currency Theory's criteria and forms an optimum area. I tried to assess, whether benefits of forming this integration in Europe outweigh costs or not. First part of this paper describes evaluation of this theory. Not only did I mention most widely known criteria such as Mundell's, Mckinnon's, Kenen's, but I also mentioned some others, which were defined during last few decades. In the second part, I analysed data and tried to find out to what degree the criteria are fulfilled. On the basis of this analysis I can say, that the European optimum union does not form an optimum currency area.
