Abuse of dominant position in EC Law and US Law
Funta, Rastislav ; Svoboda, Pavel (advisor) ; Smolek, Martin (referee) ; Tichý, Luboš (referee)
Competition/antitrust law rules are neccessarry for optimal functioning of the common market with its four fundamental freedoms (free movement of goods, capital, services and persons). Competition as a contention for superiority in the market place and antitrust as a study of competition mean more or less the same. Because markets are increasingly becoming multinational, lawyers and lawmakers can no longer content themselves with understanding only the antitrust/competition law of their nation. This study will discuss the most relevant issues of competition law (abuse of dominant position) in the European Union in comparison to the US American antitrust law: abuse of dominant position, how should the competition/antitrust law act by the abuse of dominant position by companies with a major market share as well as with the concentration appraisal which is one of the fundamental basis for the abuse in general. Throughout the different chapters it refers to several similarities and differences between the EU and U.S. systems. Substantial sub-part of the dissertation is the sanctions solution which are laid down by abuse of competition-legal rules as well as the development of the abuse of dominant position/competition law perspective. The aim of the competition legal regulation is not only the protection and...

Love as a sociological problem (Investment theory of love)
Zandl Eckhardtová, Dita ; Duffková, Jana (referee) ; Šubrt, Jiří (advisor)
The investment theory of love considers love ( or intimacy relationship in general) as being a social exchange phenomenon. The theory uses several already verified theories (ABX-C theory of family adaptation to crisis, scenarios in Berne' s approach and love types defined by Lasswel and Lobsenz. The initial investment depends on level of matching of scenarios and love types. Additional deposits or withdrawals are factors of conversations dealing with crisis or stresses. If the process of reaching an agreement is considered to be positive (by both partners) the investment grows. If the process is negatively percieved, the total sum diminishes. This procesus happens on severals levels: biological (sexual satisfaction), emotional (including sense of fulfillment), social (family, children ... ) and practical. The conversations could be analysed by neurolinguistical programming methods.

Issues of structure Det + N1N2 in contemporary Portuguese
Matějovicová, Jitka ; Tláskal, Jaromír (advisor) ; Jindrová, Jaroslava (referee)
The aim ofthis work is to divide and analyse the structure Det + N1N2 in contemporary Portuguese. Hence we deal with expressions consisting oftwo side-byside substantives, which are not connected by preposition (cf. a palavra-chave, o navioescola, o Estado-nar;ďo ou o cantor/poeta; o Prémio Nobel). These structures are relatively frequent in spoken as well as in written language and they contribute considerably to the enrichment ofvocabulary. We can consider them as compounds or simple nominal groups, sometimes they are analysed within the framework of transposition. Authors, who apply themselves to the issue of compounds, usually deal with the distinction between compounds and simple nominal groups and with creation of criteria for their typology and c1assification. Those who study the structure in terms of transposition focus on transition of expression in the N2 position from the c1ass of substantives to the c1ass of adjectives. Generally we can say that iťs possible to find several theoretical attitudes, which blend together in some aspects and differ in others. Thaťs why we introduce in the first part different conceptions of the structure Det + N1N2 in contemporary Portuguese. In addition to the work ofPortuguese linguists we also take into consideration works ofFrench and Czech experts. In the...

Unemployment Duration in the Czech Republic Through the Lens of Survival Analysis
Čabla, Adam ; Malá, Ivana (advisor) ; Komárková, Lenka (referee) ; Popelka, Jan (referee)
In the presented thesis the aim is to apply methods of survival analysis to the data from the Labour Force Survey, which are interval-censored. With regard to this type of data, I use specific methods designed to handle them, especially Turnbull estimate, weighted log-rank test and the AFT model. Other objective of the work is the design and application of a methodology for creating a model of unemployment duration, depending on the available factors and its interpretation. Other aim is to evaluate evolution of the probability distribution of unemployment duration and last but not least aim is to create more accurate estimate of the tail using extreme value theory. The main benefits of the thesis can include the creation of a methodology for examining the data from the Labour Force Survey based on standard techniques of survival analysis. Since the data are internationally comparable, the methodology is applicable at the level of European Union countries and several others. Another benefit of this work is estimation of the parameters of the generalized Pareto distribution on interval-censored data and creation and comparison of the models of piecewise connected distribution functions with solution of the connection problem. Work brought empirical results, most important of which is the comparison of results from three different data approaches and specific relationship between selected factors and time to find a job or spell of unemployment.

E-government, neboli elektronizace a informatizace veřejné správy, je současné aktuální téma, které se u nás dostalo do podvědomí na počátku 90. let minulého století, a které dosáhlo výrazných pokroků, především díky rozvoji v oblasti informačních a komunikačních technologií. Tato bakalářská práce se věnuje vývoji e-governmentu od roku 2000 v České Republice, zároveň však bere v ohled i určité aspekty z let minulých. Zabývá se rozvojem elektronické komunikace úřadů veřejné správy směrem k občanům, jakou úlohu hraje v procesu elektronizace stát (resp. vláda), především v oblasti legislativy, vymezuje problémy zavádění služeb e-governmentu, ale také uvádí, na základě získaných poznatků, přínosy pro občany, podnikatelské subjekty i pro orgány veřejné správy. Přínosem práce je ucelené shrnutí poznatků o problematice e-governmentu v ČR v letech 2000-2006. Téma je zpracováno metodou studia odborných pramenů.

Assessment of Policy Changes of the Impacts of Urbanization, Economic Growth and Decentralization of Water Services with Regard to Water Quality in Mexico
Lara Cervantes, René Fernando ; Šauer, Petr (advisor) ; Dvořák, Antonín (referee) ; Hájek, Miroslav (referee)
The thesis studies the case of water quality in Mexico as a crucial factor to prevent water scarcity. This is an important issue for Mexico since more than half of its territory is arid or semi-arid; moreover, the most productive regions are located in areas with significant water resources stress. In this regard, the current situation of water scarcity is studied from the changes in water management derived from the evolution of institutions in the country. The institutional changes were analyzed mostly in the transition from a centralized water supply and sanitation services with strong state intervention to the decentralization of such services that were transferred to municipalities. Decentralization was addressed by analyzing the performance of water supply and sanitation services in urban areas that are expected to continue growing in the near future. The literature shows that the decentralization process has been partial and has not improved as expected the performance of water supply and sanitation services, moreover, due to political reasons, limited human and financial resources it introduced more challenges to the accomplishment of sustainable water management. More importantly, the federal government is still the main agent for the development of the water sector in Mexico. The next part of the analysis consist of a quantitative and qualitative evaluation regarding water quality for the three most productive Hydrological-Administrative Regions (HARs) of Mexico in the period of 2003-2013. The HARs chosen are the HAR VI Río Bravo, HAR VIII Lerma Santiago Pacific and HAR XIII Waters of the Valley of Mexico which are very similar in terms GDP share and water stress degree. Through OLS regression models for each HAR the impacts of demographic, economic, water supply and sanitation services aspects were tested to known their effects on water quality. In order to improve the discussion of the results, additional to the comparison with the results of the literature review, three experts were asked to answer a questionnaire about the regressions outcome. The discussion showed different impacts of the independent variables in the dependent variable of each HAR, sometimes leading to unexpected results. The main conclusions of the thesis relate to the improvement of decentralization of water and sanitation services, to the need to improve data for future analyses and pay more attention to water quality issues. In this regard, decentralization requires to consider contextual differences in order to seize its advantages to improve the performances of water supply and sanitation services, moreover, at the operative level water management decisions must be taken without political interests involved. The statistical analyses stressed the need to develop more reliable data about water management issues to improve the understanding of factors that could potentially affect water quality. In this regard, the creation of useful statistical indicators to assess the evolution towards sustainability in water management. The considerations for future research must consider more seriously water quality issues. This topic has been often ignored, however, it is crucial for water scarcity abatement.

Possibilities of development of private farms in the microregion Nechanicko
Vašáková, Eva ; Pazderů, Kateřina (advisor)
Diploma thesis possibilities of development of private farms in the micro Nechanická is focused on designing a business plan for small farmers, which since 2002 operates in the cultivation of small fruits. The farm is located in Labe, near Hradec Kralove and was "greenfield". Since its creation, developed and expanded, it currently manages a set on 20 hectares of land. Traditional methods are grown and harvested cherries, red currant and black currant. The theoretical part deals with the processing of evidence from the available literature concerning the history of horticulture and fruit growing contemporary, state support for farmers and private enterprise. Furthermore, I describe the region in which the farm operates, including the assessment of competition. The practical part is focused on assessing the current state farms and to assess the proposed changes. This is a business plan, which aims to propose such changes in the structure of grown fruits, which should contribute to the diversification of farms and mitigating business risks. The result should be a financial benefit for the farm, respectively. propose such procedures, which would allow to employ another member of the family and the farm was sustainable for the next generation. The business plan is aimed at changing tracks grown fruits, to changes in its practices of cultivation and harvesting, taking full advantage of current opportunities farm so that the economic benefit was achieved as soon as possible, with due lowest cost. The project economically assessing the project from two perspectives - without the use of subsidies and their utilization. The proposed amendments seek to achieve the highest quality production, which is then preferably be sold. In the end, the project is evaluated and assessed the return on investment provided grants and without their support. It is also evaluated the possibility of further employment of a family member and the emergence of family farms.
