1 SUMMARY THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT AND ITS SUBJECT-MATTER JURISDICTION WITH REGARD TO THE CRIME OF AGGRESSION The current course of events concerning the crime of aggression and the search for its definition has undergone a remarkable shift during these days. In the light of the Revision Conference in Kampala, Uganda, whose declared aim was to evaluate the role and the up- to-date operation of the International Criminal Court as well as to find the definition of the crime of aggression and to set up the conditions to exercise the jurisdiction concerning the crime of aggression, the worldwide understanding of the conception of the crime of aggression has been significantly changed . The aim of this paper is to familiarize the reader with the problems regarding the crime of aggression, to describe the evolution of its conception in the field of international law within the last few decades and to provide the reader with a brief outline of some problematic questions which arose from the negotiations of the definition among the states. Further, the thesis attempts to depict the development of the negotiations themselves and to focus on the main disagreements, which the states had to face. The introductory chapter deals with some theoretical questions related to the international criminal justice. The...

Jan Adam Dietz, Adam Ferdinand Tietz, Jan Václav Grauer and the sculpture workshop in Jezeří near Jirkov
Adamcová, Kateřina ; Horyna, Martin (advisor) ; Vlnas, Vít (referee) ; Oulíková, Petra (referee)
The sculpture workshop in Jezeří near Jirkov is a representative instance of sculptural production in both wood and stone in northwest Bohemia during the first half of the 18th century. Traces of its activity may be discerned throughout the area roughly outlined by the present-day districts of Teplice, Most, Chomutov and Louny. In addition to the founder and primary shaper of the specific sculptural style of the atelier, Jan Adam Dietz, the idea of the "sculpture workshop of Jezeří" additionally covers further exceptional personalities, who not only acquired in it the basis of their physical craft, but moreover the essential form of their artistic sensitivity. Primarily, these persons include the two sons of Jan Adam Dietz, Jan Josef and Adam Ferdinand, as well as Dietz's son-in-law Jan Václav Grauer. Thanks to its high artistic standards, the Jezeří sculpture workshop has attracted the attention of several generations of researchers, who starting in the late 1920s and early 1930s organised several exhibitions devoted to the Baroque and Rococo sculpture of the region. It was these first scholars who outlined the basic characterisations still used today to describe the work of J. A. Dietz and J. V. Grauer. Great attention was also devoted to this atelier by the Czech art historians V. V. Štech and O. J....

Uig - local community
Školová, Markéta ; Pargač, Jan (referee) ; Šatava, Leoš (advisor)
Gaelic language revival is the focus of many linguists and anthropologists. There are many generalisations written about this subject. This study is primarily based on a case study of the Uig community on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. With the use of historical and current descriptions of the community, problems are outlined associated with the Gaelic language in this mainly Gaelic speaking community. Despite the high number of recorded Gaelic speakers in Uig (67%, Census 2001), I consider this not a true reflection of the number of people who can use Gaelic daily. There are still many families who underestimate and therefore undermine the status of their language, despite the official support of Gaelic Education by the Scottish Government. Interestingly, there is an evident passivity of parents to enrol their children into Gaelic-medium units at the Uig Primary School yet, many parents do consider Gaelic as part of their cultural heritage. In Uig, a rural area, the number of higher educated inhabitants is minimal. Very lately, a lack of housing, has appeared as a problem and the local Community Council must deal with it. Many of the people questioned in this study are witnessing the language shift towards English in their own families. There seems to be some progress towards a reversing language...
