From Feudalism to Capitalism - Institutional Analysis of the West
Radošťanová, Iveta ; Mládek, Josef (advisor) ; Štěpánek, Pavel (referee)
European society has passed a distressful development on its way to its current form. Every phase of this wandering to the higher levels and shapes of the civilization is characterized by certain organization of the social ties, what I would like to take a closer look at. I will consider a development in the western countries at the time, when feudal system of the medieval society appeared to be archaistic and deficient, whereat it was replaced by a new social system, which was modern and which was able to stand with transforming needs of the society better than narrow-minded feudalism. I will not enquire the exact historical development, my tendency is to analyse the institutional changes more generally. First I will try to describe general traits of the transition, then I will attend to some concrete countries and their differences. I will talk about France, Spain, the Netherlands and England.

Role of trust in a democratic system
Sedláčková, Markéta ; Šubrt, Jiří (advisor) ; Marada, Radim (referee) ; Perottino, Michel (referee)
The need to understand the ongoing process of democratization has led to the revival of interest in the topics such as legitimacy of the democratic regimes, the creation of political culture and inevitably also in the question of the role of trust in these processes. These topics will be closely examined in this work. In the first - theoretical - section we introduce the evolution of the concept of trust, its various definitions and categorization. The concept of social capital, which is often linked to the to pic of trust, will be also addressed in this chapter. A special attention will be paid to the paradigm of so-called collective social capital (Putnam, Halpem, Fukuyama), which focuses on the relationship oftrust and democracy. The second part of the thesis maps theoretical work on trust and democracy, paying special attention to the arguments of culturalists and institucionalists. When we talk of the role that trust plays in a given democratic system, we use three basic channels of their relationship: legitimacy, social trust and trust in institutions. Legitimacy in a given govemment and its institutions - a form of systemic trust - is considered to be the key founding block of the democratic system. Based on divergent theories we continue the debate to what extent, and if at all, is legitimacy...

Capital punishment
Němcová, Jana ; Novotný, Oto (advisor) ; Fenyk, Jaroslav (referee)
Oprávněnost trestu smrti je již po staletí diskutovaným problémem, a to nejen z hlediska trestního práva, ale i etického, filozofického, morálního, náboženského či lékařského. Téma trestu smrti se znovu dostává do popředí zájmu české veřejnosti, zejména v souvislosti s vraždou Jana Rokose vlastní matkou, s heparinovým vrahem Petrem Zelenkou a sexuální vraždou Jakuba Šimánka. Cílem diplomové práce je prozkoumat tuto problematiku, zhodnotit odborné diskuze a veřejné mínění, charakterizovat používané argumenty zastánců i odpůrců trestu smrti a vývoj legislativního řešení otázky trestu smrti v našem státě s přihlédnutím k vývoji v Evropě a ve světě. Pro uvedení tématu je nejprve rozveden pojem a účel trestu všeobecně, následující kapitola se věnuje trestu smrti z historického hlediska. Další část je zaměřena na způsoby poprav, které lidstvo používalo v minulosti a na tzv. moderní metody, mezi něž se řadí gilotina, zastřelení, elektrické křeslo, plynová komora a smrtící injekce. Nelze říci, že by jakýkoliv způsob popravy byl humánní, ospravedlnitelný pro ukončení lidského života. Stručně je pojednáno o trestu smrti v USA a rozebráno zrušení trestu smrti v jednotlivých státech ve světě. Jednou ze stěžejních kapitol je polemika o trestu smrti, kde jsou porovnány názory zastánců a odpůrců absolutního trestu. Dále...
