Urban posttraditional religiosity
Fassatiová, Paula ; Hubáček, Ondřej (referee) ; Halík, Tomáš (advisor)
The thesis is based on the conception of the postoptimistic society (the concept that comes from the Czech scholar Tomáš Halík) which is enrooted in two presuppositions. The first one is that man can no longer rely on modem science and technology - processes which have started to determine the sense and purpose of life from the moment of their appearance. The secular optimism based on this presupposition is now discredited by the ominous (for ex. ecological) consequences of current technocratical civilisation.

Insularity and connection in E.M. Forster's Howards End and A Passage to India
Rezková, Jana ; Beran, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Armand, Louis (referee)
Howards End and A Passage to India, the two best known novels by E.M. Forster are quite different in theme and setting, but they have an important aspect in common. Both novels take place in a strictly divided society and they both deal with the insularity and narrow-mindedness of separate communities and their inability to reach beyond their own environment and experience. "Only connect ... ", an epigraph from Howards End, introduces one of the central themes of F orster' s writing. E. M. Forster strongly believed in the importance of personal relationships and in living a full, undivided life. That is, a life in which spiritual, physical, emotional and rational aspects are all in harmony. 1 In order to reach the desired harmony, one needs to establish connections not only between the spiritual and material life, but also on the level of personal relations. Forster is concerned with an individual's search for harmony, but also with finding harmony and overcoming fragmentation in the whole society. To reach such harmony, both within the self and within the society, is what the characters of his novels strive for. Forster disregarded religion already during his university years2 and this may have led him to consider personal relationships of primary importance. His belief in personal relations is also...

Analysis of pension reform with the introduction of a link between the number of children and pension
Bělošický, Alexandr ; Klazar, Stanislav (advisor) ; Hartlová, Alena (referee)
This thesis focuses on the analysis of non-traditional approach to reforming the pay-as-you-go pension system by introducing a link between the number of children and the amount of pension, which is known as the Children PAYG. An analysis of the concept in general and of specific proposals for reform with its application is performed in the analytical part. Attention is also given to related topics. One of them is to assess the impact of the pension system on fertility. Further issue is to examine the costs of raising a child that are shared by parents and society as a whole. One of the main outputs of this thesis is a summary of positive and negative features of the Children PAYG concept. The concept is considered applicable in domestic conditions based on this analysis. Finally there are two recommended approaches to the Czech pension reform, the first one is based on the concept of Children PAYG with limiting the role of family policy, the second one is based on maintaining current pay-as-you-go system in a limited form of so-called flat-rate pension with strengthening the role of family policy in financing the costs of raising children.

A comparison between Czech and Slovak right-wing polities development from 1990 up to date
Boháčová, Anna ; Just, Petr (advisor) ; Jüptner, Petr (referee)
This theses is concerned with the origin and development of right-wing political parties in the Czech Republic and Slovak Republic during 1989-2006. At first, basic terms such as political party or a partial system are defined. Afterwards a concept of right-wing and left-wing is briefly defined. The theses shortly addresses a form of electoral system which notably influences the partial system. Year 1989 was an important year for the evolution of political parties in both countries, it was a year when anti-communist movements arised. Later on, most important right-wing entities originated from them. In the Czech Republic the rights were in power from 1990 till 1998. The election in 1998 ended in a stalemate and a nonstandard agreement between two ultimate rivals - right-wing ODS and left-wing CSSD was signed. After the election in 2002, the parties again operate along the axes of right-wing and left-wing. Slovakia went through more complicated development since authoritarian HZDS was in power and did not admit democratic right-wing entities any share of power. After 1998. when wide governmental alliance was established, a period of standardization of political system in Slovakia has began. Finally the theses focuses on cleavages in a society which importantly influence the form of partial systems and which...
