Public opinion on extremist political parties
Veselský, Michal
In September 2009 CVVM investigated on the issue of extremism in politics. Respondents should name up to two political parties which are according to their opinion supposed to be extremist. Majority named ultra-right wing parties and subjects as an extremist ones and only 10 % of respondents mentioned left wing Communist Party of Bohemia and Moravia (KSCM). So the percentage of respondents who mentioned KSCM dropped radically from 25 % in March 1999 to current 10 %. This result is influenced not only by better image of KSCM in the eyes of public but also by raising activities of ultra-right wing subjects in Czech Republic.

Šlehoferová, Vanda ; Trávníčková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Kochan, Jan (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to describe the legal investment disputes settled within the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes, where one party of a dispute was the Czech Republic or a Czech national. The thesis has three main chapters. The first is theoretical, and describes the structure, function and jurisdiction of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes. The next two chapters focus on specific 'Czech' cases, which were settled before the Centre. The first dispute was between the Czechoslovak Trade Bank and the Slovak Republic and the second was between the Israeli company Phoenix Action Ltd. and the Czech Republic. Both cases are very interesting, not only legally but also factually. Benefits for future decision-making practice is considerable. In the first case, it is an even greater extension of the term 'investment' by broad interpretation of the arbitral tribunal, the second emphasises the principles of non-retroactivity and good faith as other aspects of international investment interpretation.
