KORANDA, Ladislav
This paper deals with the influence of migration on the drug situation in the Czech Republic. The main reason for choosing this topic was the effort to compile, at least partially, from a practical and an immediate point of view, a relatively complicated matter of contemporary drug background, concerning ethnic groups living in the Czech Republic. The paper focuses on gradual characterization of these groups in the area of organized drug criminality in the Czech Republic since 1989. It describes ways of illegal drug import into the Czech Republic and the concern of Czech citizens in this criminal activity. The majority of information concerning specific ways of committing criminal activity and current situation of selected ethnic groups{\crq} criminality in this paper is taken from statistic data of the Czech Police, the Czech Board of Customs and the Czech Anti-Drug Squad{\crq}s annual reports. The research was carried out by means of quantitative method, while the results were compared with the above mentioned publications{\crq} data. The aim of this paper is to point out the engagement of foreign nationals and also ethnic groups living in the Czech Republic in illegal drug sale. Another aim is to compare the concern of Czech citizens and foreign nationals in this criminal activity and to find out how the drug criminality beating reflects itself on the price of drugs. In the first chapter of this paper, information concerning selected ethnic groups engaged in illegal drug sale in the Czech Republic are stated. The major part is dedicated to persons of Vietnamese and Romany nationality. This chapter draws upon specialized publications; it also contains paraphrases on particular publications. At the close of the chapter, specific characteristics of illegal drug sale according to particular types of drugs are described. The research includes tables comparing drug delinquency in perpetrators of Czech nationality and foreign nationals. National minority distribution, number of criminal acts concerning drugs in both groups of perpetrators, and concern of ethnic groups and foreign nationals in organized criminal activity are mentioned as well. Results of the research are stated at the close of the bachelor paper. They are in compliance with set hypotheses and met the aim of this paper because it has been proven in what way foreign nationals and national minorities living in the Czech Republic are engaged in drug criminality.

Immigration to the U.S. through the Mexican perspective: Exmaining the push factors Before and After Nafta
Novotná, Tereza ; Kozák, Kryštof (advisor) ; Raška, Francis (referee)
Mexico had been overshadowed by the U.S. within the North American area even though it is an important actor in the region. It has close historical, political and economic bonds with the United States. Given the geographic proximity, one of the critical issues in the bilateral relationship is the question of immigration. I will look at immigration through the Mexican perspective and examine the push factors that drive generations of Mexicans across the northern border. My main goal is to introduce Mexico through a thorough investigation of the factors that push Mexican citizens to emigrate to the United States. The main problem I will discuss throughout this paper is the reasons why immigration hasn't decreased since 1994, when NAFTA had come into effect and why has there been an increase of the Mexican-born population in the U.S. The premise is not to analyze the economical successes or failures of NAFTA itself, but to introduce its impact on immigration. I will look into the political, demographic, security related and economical reasons for immigration as well as analyze immigration from the regional perspective, in order to demonstrate there has been a change in the migrant profile. Overall this paper should provide a more balanced perspective on the immigration issue to the U.S.

Transport binární směsi adsorbujících se plynů ve Vycorovém skle
Čermáková, Jiřina ; Yang, J. ; Uchytil, Petr ; Seidel-Morgenstern, A.
Efficiency of the gas separation with porous ceramic membranes might be expected higher for gas mixtures of adsorbable and nonadsorbable components in comparison with mixtures of only nonadsorbable gases. The reason is the additional specific contribution of surface diffusion to the gas transfer through a membrane in the case of the existing adsorption of permeating substances. The transport of pure nonadsorbable gases in porous material was already well described [1]. This work deals with the transport of binary adsorbable gases through porous Vycor glass. The transport of adsorbable gases in such pores is considered to be contributed by both gas phase and surface diffusion. The measurements were performed using a modified Wicke-Kallenbach cell possessing a closed and an open chambers [2, 3].

Possibilistic logic and the philosophy of David Hume
Vondráčková, Lucie ; Kolman, Vojtěch (referee) ; Holeček, Tomáš (advisor)
This paper presents an enquiry in to possibilistic logic and Hume's philosophy ofAn Enquiry Concerning Hwnan Understanding. As far as being a tool for reasoning under uncertainty possibilistic logic seems to be an appropriate model for empirie theory of tt·utlL However, as we sec the possibilistic conscquence as customary transition, the possibilistic logic's ability to claim that classical flrst-order closed formula cannot be proved ceases to exist. Moreover, the possibilistic semantics coping with inconsistency becomes from this point of view senseless.

Fialová, Vendula ; Vorlová, Marie (advisor) ; Klípa, Ondřej (referee)
In this Bachelor's thesis, I tried to describe the history of the Roma people, briefly: where do they come from, what made them to exile from their homeland, and when did they settle in Europe and in Bohemia. Particularly, I wanted to think about drastic ordinance of the Roma people's banishment from the country and their violent assimilation in the era of Marie Terezie's reign, the prejudices persisting in our subconsciousness up to the present day. Last but not least, I attended to the era of communism, finding there possible reasons of the problems accompanied after the year 1989. My goal was to depict the situation of the Roma people in Broumov where I focused on several branches: unemployment and education, being closely connected with each other. First, I am concerned with the particular data from Broumov, the characteristics of the city in terms of the inhabitants' structure and job possibilities. Concerning the question of unemployment, the progress is described and possible causes are being found, which is also connected with the branch of criminality. Furthermore, the living possibilities of the Roma people are discussed. Nevertheless, I consider the education possibility of the Roma people in Broumov as one of the most important, which I pay more attention to. In the end, as a prevention of...

Marková, Lenka ; Mocná, Dagmar (referee) ; Peterka, Josef (advisor)
The aim of the thesis was to discover the processes of Arnošt Lustig's interference into his previously published work and giving them the final form. The author of this paper was interested in the changes being only supplementary additions of the story or if the meaning is significantly influenced by writer's editing. At the same time, the question about the reason, function and meaning of the changes was raised. For the research three Lustig's books, were chosen: Noc a naděje, Modlitba pro Kateřinu Horovitzovou and Dita Saxová. They slightly vary in genre. The first chapter Poetics of Arnošt Lustig deals with Judaism as his inspiration, context of the time period in which he was active - the second wave of War prose, the topics of his prose being rather mono-thematically from Jewish background and with his characters, weak and humiliated people who remain moral winners although they often die. The second, third and fourth chapter are more about individual books. Their first publication is compared with the last one. The added texts are then sequenced into logical units, described and commented. All chapters contain short conclusion. The last closing chapter presents the results of the thesis. Lustig's rewriting of published text does not have any strong influence on the story flow. The passages added are...
