TOMANOVÁ, Lucie
The thesis deals with municipal policy in Strakonice. The main goal is to compare the results of elections at years 2018 and 2019. In the theoretical part, there will be defined terms as public administration, municipal elections, political marketing and political market. After that, in the practical part, an analysis and comparison of election campaigns of candidate political entities will be performed, because due to the restriction of equal conditions of political competition, the 2018 elections were canceled by a court decision. For this reason, the basis of the work is an analysis of the means of promotion used by all candidate parties. Since the results of the municipal elections most influence the everyday life of citizenship, the conclusion of the diploma thesis is a questionnaire survey, which forms an idea of the relationship of the electorate. At the end of the work, these data will be analyzed and research questions will also be answered.

Mrázek, Patrik ; Shavit, Anna (advisor) ; Nečas, Vlastimil (referee)
1 Abstract This thesis deals with the analysis of the negative campaigns run by seven leaders of political entities before the 2021 Czech parliamentary elections.

Attention is paid to the form and frequency of negative advertisement as it is an integral part of the pre-election period and, in the examined elections, was employed often in the campaign's strategy. In the theoretical section, negative advertising is placed into the wider scope of current trends in political communication and is tied in with political marketing tools. In relation to the unclear definition of the phenomenon, a unifying definition is introduced. Negative advertising is then further separated into subtypes, introduced in the Czech environment, and connected with concepts and theories debating the extent and perception of the use of negativity and emotion in campaigns. The quantitative analysis of content generates statistical data, explaining the method in which negative advertisement is used, its subtypes and affective components. Based on this, it evaluates the extent of negativity present in individual campaigns as well as their emotional tone....
