Houdek, Miroslav ; Uhlík, Milan (advisor) ; Pavla, Pavla (referee)
The thesis deals with the protection of personality in the legal system of the Czech Republic. Its aim is to specify the possible ways protection of personality in the legal system of the Czech Republic with using of appropriate methods; and also to determine the number of reported and the Czech Police investigated cases including their treatment and in case of deficiencies in the legislation, organization and management are found, to propose measures to eliminate them. The theoretical part contains international and national legislation regulating protection of personality in the legal system of the Czech Republic. In the practical part there is an evaluation of legislation at first, followed by proposed measures to eliminate deficiencies in the field protection of personality. This is followed by analysis of wiretapping and recording of telecommunication operations and analysis of statistical data of selected cases undertaken by the CZ Police. At the end of the empirical part there is performed a quantitative research by using a questionnaire that is intended to members of police and citizens. The resulting values are analyzed, evaluated and translated into charts and graphs. In conclusion there is a proposed change in the law in the sense of de lege ferenda.

Local Political Coalitions in the Statutory City of České Budějovice
Valenta, Martin ; Čmejrek, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Markéta, Markéta (referee)
Municipal policy is quite a new discipline within political science, and especially in the Czech environment it has been an object of attention in recent two decades only. While political scientists abroad have dealt with municipal policy for a long time, in the Czech environment the research of local problems has been in the margin for years.
The subject of this dissertation is not focused on the research of the Czech municipal policy as a whole, but it is concerned with the research of the particular local political system in České Budějovice in recent 25 years. As the city is a large regional capital, there might be implied a certain link between municipal and national policies, which can be noticeable not only in the representation of individual parliamentary parties in the city council, but also in the process of creating individual post-election coalitions.
Methodically the present work is a kind of comparative study which is based on the theoretical conception applying to local democracy, participation of citizens in public life, party systems, an electoral process and forming of election and executive coalitions at a local political level.
In the practical part the degree work is based on the study and analysis of local authority documents of České Budějovice, the programmes of Czech traditional political parties and other parties which, in some cases, became parts of the local political system in České Budějovice. The practical part is also to a large extent based on comparison of election data from the Czech Statistical Office.

Importance and predictive capabilities of business cycle surveys in official statistics
Bartáková, Silvie ; Prášilová, Marie (advisor) ; Jiří, Jiří (referee)
The thesis is focused on the status of the business cycle surveys in national and international statistics and on the assessment of their ability to predict the economic development. The theoretical part focuses on the description of the business cycle surveys and their harmonization across the European Union, questionnaires content, indicators structure and dissemination of results. There is also described a detailed procedure of data processing and calculation of confidence indicators in the conditions of the Czech Republic, which is closely related to the analysis of their predictive abilities. The practical part contains the analysis of the basic characteristic of the business cycle surveys and gross value added time series. Based on these analysis, the thesis evaluate the forecasting ability of the Economic Sentiment Indicator as well as sector confidence indicators (industry, construction, trade and services). The last chapter formulates proposals and recommendations relative to the content of the questionnaires, data collection, data processing and the confidence indicators construction that could be employed in order to achieve better predictive ability.

Štípek, Michal ; Civínová, Denisa (advisor) ; Klára, Klára (referee)
The thesis deals with the issue of public procurement financed by means of subsidies provided by the European Union. Its theoretical part concerns with public procurement co-financed from EU budget. This first part of my thesis focuses generally on explanation of basis terms concerning public procurement. Moreover, it outlines our national and European legislation and methods interfering in the process of public procurement co-financed from the EU budget. The thesis presents oversight bodies emphasizing the function of the Audit Authority. It pays attention to structural funds during the 2007-2013 programming period focusing on the Regional Operational Programme (ROP) North-West. The practical part concentrates on analysis and records of the most frequent mistakes in public procurement within the ROP North-West by means of analysing a sample of cases identified by the Audit Authority. The thesis uses the outputs in the form of a summary of most frequent mistakes in public procurement of the selected operational programme as the foundation for formulation of measures and suggestions for elimination of mistakes in public procurement and for recommendations on amelioration and efficiency improvement of the public procurement system.

Spanish Real Estate Market Analysis
Melnikova, Yulia ; Procházka, Petr (advisor) ; Václav, Václav (referee)
At the beginning of 2000-ies the real estate market of residential property in Spain considered to be one the most popular and fast-growing real estate market in Europe, which attracted a great number of investment into the country and thus contributed greatly to the development of the national economy of Spain. However, because of the economic crisis in the country, residential real estate market collapsed significantly. At the present time, the Spanish real estate market of residential property market is recovering from the recession to the pre-crisis level as the prices for residential real estate property has started increasing due to the high demand for it. All this factors positively affect the national economy of Spain.
In order to obtain the major aim of the thesis, it is crucial to conduct a retrospective overview of the residential real estate market of Spain before the crisis and provide a bene-ficial real estate market analysis of the current situation on the market of residential proper-ty.

The purpose and the function of Archives and Records Service in the state administration. The effect of documents storage on the national economy.
Belzová, Aneta ; Kadlecová, Eva (advisor) ; Civínová, Denisa (referee)
This thesis is about Record Services in the state administration. In the theoretical
part I mention the legislation relating with the Archive and Record Services. Then there are
described various phases of the cycle of documents. In this thesis are presented possible
forms of Record Services and also determined which entities are obliged to keep Record
Services and if so, in what form. In the theoretical part I also mention the National Archive
and National Digital Archive. In the practical part is the graphical view of the evolution of
the state expenditures on the National Archive. Then there is a short cross-section of the
amendments of Act no. 499/2004 Coll., about Archiving and Record Services and
amending certain laws and there are listed the most frequent mistakes which are made in
the performance of Record Services. In the last part of this thesis are illustrated the graphs,
that shows, how many files annually establish some state authorities and explained what
could have caused potential increase or decrease.

Analysis and modeling of the structure and development of mixed forest stands in the Sudety mountains
Vacek, Zdeněk ; Remeš, Jiří (advisor) ; Hlásny, Tomáš (referee)
The thesis deals with analysis and modeling of the structure and development of selected mixed forests in protected areas of the Sudeten system, especially in the Giant Mountains national parks, Protected Landscape Area Broumovsko and Orlické Mountains, but also in other areas of the Czech Republic. This study is composed of a set of six published manuscripts that are covering three thematic ranges: structure of forest stands, regeneration of forest stands and forest modeling. The main objective of this work was to evaluate a vertical, horizontal and species structure, total diversity and development of mixed forest stands in central Sudetes. The partial aim was to analyse production parameters of forest stands, effect of microrelief and game on natural regeneration and assessment of dead wood in the area of interest. Further, the objective of the study was to develop explicit and non-explicit crown width and slenderness quotient models for Norway spruce (Picea abies L.) and European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and to predict the development of mixed forest ecosystem using growth simulations and to evaluate parameters and interactions among stand structure, climatic factors and natural regeneration, using especially analysis of variance, correlation matrix, spatial statistic and multivariate analysis. For this purpose a system of permanent research plots was used, which are regularly monitored since 1980 or were newly established. Using mapping technology FieldMap, selected parameters were measured for tree layer, natural regeneration individuals and dead wood. The results showed that the spatial distribution of beech stands in optimum stadium changes with the altitude from the regular pattern through random to aggregated spatial pattern of beech forests near the timberline. The spatial distribution of natural regeneration is highly aggregated, distribution of stumps is random and horizontal structure of the centroids of the crowns is always more regularly distributed than stems due to crown plasticity. Browsing damage of the leading shoot by game is an important limiting factor for height growth of natural regeneration, especially for silver fir (Abies alba Mill.), rowan (Sorbus aucuparia L.) and sycamore maple (Acer pseudoplatanus L.). The study of the influence of microrelief on the growth of beech regeneration showed that the highest average height was found on slope and pits, while the lowest on the mounds. From the effect of climatic factors on the radial growth of trees, it was found that temperature is a limiting factor for growth in mountain areas, respectively that positive effect of temperature decreases with decreasing altitude and conversely the influence of precipitation increases. Finally, spatially explicit models (as opposed to non-explicit) described a larger part of the crown width variations for spruce and beech and of the slenderness quotient for spruce. The largest contribution to the models after breast diameter was dominant height.

Genetic Diversity of Semi-captive Population of Western Derby Eland (Taurotragus derbianus derbianus) in Senegal and Phylogenetical Relationships between Western Derby Eland (T. d. derbianus) and Eastern Giant Eland (T. d. gigas)
Zemanová, Hana ; Lukešová, Daniela (advisor) ; Jarmila, Jarmila (referee)
Representatives of family Bovidae are subjects of many studies concerning with their phylogeny, phylogeography, time of divergence or genetic diversity. Taxonomy is solved by comparison of morphological characteristics or by genetic approaches, genetic diversity could be solved by pedigree or by genetic analyses too. Tragelaphinae number nine species of two genera, Tragelaphus sp. and Taurotragus sp. The antelopes of the genus Taurotragus (T. derbianus and T. oryx) belong to the largest antelopes of the world. Derby eland (Taurotragus derbianus) has two subspecies, Western Derby eland (T. d. derbianus) and Eastern Giant eland (T. d. gigas), which are distinguished on the basis of morphological characteristics. Western subspecies (T. d. derbianus) is classified as critically endangered. There lives the only population in Niokolo Koba National Park in Senegal, which numbers fewer than 200 individuals. For the conservation, the semi-captive breeding programme has been established in 2000. It was created by six founders (one male and five females), which are presumed to be non-related. The population within this programme had 95 living individuals in 2013, living in seven herds in Bandia and Fathala reserves in Senegal. The population is under breeding management, which efforts to minimize kinship of the individuals. Studbook was established for the Western Derby eland (T. d. derbianus) in 2008 and is published annually. It acts about small population with low number of founders and no gene flow, which is threatened by inbreeding and genetic drift. Genetic diversity of the population was evaluated by means of microsatellite markers and the results were compared with the results of pedigree analysis. Pedigree analysis showed the highest genetic diversity in the generation of founders (FOUNDERS). It decreased in the generation of founders' offspring (OFFSPRING 1; born in season 2007/2008), due to the fact, that the only male took part in the reproduction. And it increased again in the generation of offspring of founders' offspring (OFFSPRING 2; born in the season 2009/2010), because more individuals were included into the reproduction. Fifteen individuals and five polymorphic microsatellite loci (from the total number of 13 tested loci) were chosen for the genetic study. The parameters of genetic diversity (HE and HO, Ar and deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and FIS and FST) were evaluated. Not any deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were found out. The results of genetic analysis confirmed the highest genetic diversity in the population of founders (Ar = 2.79; HE = 0.664; HO = 0.750; FIS = --0.154). In both generations of offspring values of allelic richness and observed and expected heterozygosity decreased (Ar = 2.15; HO = 0.580; HE = 0.586 in OFFSPRING 1 and Ar = 2.14; HO = 0.370; HE = 0.480 in OFFSPRING 2). Contrary to the results of pedigree analysis, there was not been observed any improvement in OFFSPRING 2. The resultant values of genetic diversity parameters were quite satisfactory, despite of the low number of founders and mating of related individuals.
