Skočková, Sylva ; Radvanová, Senta (advisor) ; Dvořák, Jan (referee)
RESUMÉ The paper deals with the question of maintenance duties both of parents towards their children and of children towards their parents.

The depiction of the changing consciousness of women in three novels of the turn of the century
Potočková, Kristýna ; Veselá, Pavla (advisor) ; Roraback, Erik Sherman (referee)
The aim of this work is to document how the substantial change in the social status of women that took place at the turn of the twentieth century is reflected in three novels of that period, The Portrait of a Lady by Henry James, The Awakening by Kate Chopin and The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton, and in the lives of the authors. The essential and common themes of these texts are marriage and motherhood, the two institutions which reflect the most the changing consciousness of women. The historical background of the period provides evidence for the division of roles in the marital institution, which was strongly established in the preceding centuries, and for the unequal position of women in general, resulting from the male superiority, mostly fortified by men's financial dominance. The heroines, akin to the authors, come from the upper or upper-middle classes which were the most active in the feminist movement because these classes had time and education to assess the situation and propose transformations. Art and sexuality are in various ways essential to the process of self-realization. The creative and sexual drives can be both an opportunity for a woman's liberation as well as an incentive for rejecting to submit to men that is enforced by men's habit of collecting works of art (inclusive of women) or...

In this paper author makes an attempt to describe the development of the man - nature relationship in the Western thought and also the reflections of this problem, using the "domination of man over nature" metaphor. He concludes the problem of "culture versus nature" duality on the example of philosophical and historical research on the cultural basis of ecological crisis. He follows describing the birth of early conservationist movement (H. Thoreau, J. Muir), ecological ethic (A. Schweitzer) and transformation of this concepts into various fields: ecofeminism, social ecology (M. Bookchin) and deep ecology (A. Naess). Author reflects the position of environmental issues in the academic discussion as well as the incorporation of the ecological concepts into sociological theory (environmental sociology).

Companies in private international law
Štaňko, Andrej ; Brodec, Jan (referee) ; Pauknerová, Monika (advisor)
Companies in International Private Law Private companies are acting in the international context much more intensively than in any time before. There are many ways how to act on the international market. One of the solutions is to establish a branch or a representation office instead of establishing a brand new company. The right to act in the international context using branch companies is known as the freedom of establishment. There were numerous discussions and cases concerning the topic of the freedom of establishment. The main dispute arose on the ground of the different approach between two main theories - the seat theory and incorporation theory. The diploma thesis in your hand covers main issues concerning the freedom of establishment and it also discusses the case law provided by the European Court of Justice. The author uses the comparative view of the seat and incorporation theories. With a greater detail to the Czech law, the issue of the foreign companies' recognition is discussed. The Czech law recognizes foreign companies even in the form in which it is no longer possible to establish new company in the Czech Republic. In this regard basic elements of the bare trust estblished under the law of Guernsey are discussed. The case law of the European Court of Justice opened Europe's...

Jansa, Petr ; Holcová, Irena (referee) ; Křesťanová, Veronika (referee)
103 Resumé / English summary Title of the thesis: Legal aspects of implementing Creative Commons project in the Czech Republic Summary: The main topics of this master thesis are Creative Commons public licenses and legal questions arising in connection with their porting to the Czech legal system, i.e. creating Czech versions of these licenses that mirror the spirit of the original licenses while reflecting the particularities of Czech copyright and Czech law in general. Since public licenses are not yet an established concept in the Czech Republic, the first part of this paper (Chapter 2) introduces several public licenses (presented license) to create a sufficient background. Beside the main goals and features of the Creative Commons (CC) license system, GNU General Public License (GPL), GNU Free Documentation License (FDL) and Creative Archive License (CA) are presented in a similar way and a comparison of these licenses follows on the level of license elements, i.e. the main characteristics that determine the scope of the individual licenses. The aim of Chapter 3 is to produce a legal definition of public licenses. Based on the joint features of the discussed licenses (inductive approach), the following definition emerged: a license that is (i) non-exclusive, (ii) royalty-free, (iii) which the copyright...

Source Code Management Systems belong to the most important tools used for the software development. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to establish criteria and then to evaluate a support of these systems in Integrated Development Environments for Java. Subversion has been chosen as the relevant SCM System, because it is significantly favoured among open source software developers. According to the features of this system, the author establishes detailed criteria that given IDEs should meet. Then, the most common IDEs aimed at the Java development are examined on their meeting these criteria. In the conclusion of this thesis are expressed direct results of the testing and also some general suggestions concerning a next development of these products.

Typology of Quasi-states
Riegl, Martin ; Hnízdo, Bořivoj (advisor) ; Romancov, Michael (referee)
Subject of my diploma thesis is typology of quasi-states. I primarily clarify and explain the defnition of sovereign states. After that I focus on the definition of quasi-state, which is in its fundamentals a deviation from a sovereign state. I define four basic categories of quasi-states based on analysis of international community during the active presence of UN, which reflect missing attributes of gregariousness at individual quasi-states. These are not meeting the geographical (experiental) charakteristics of gregariousness, partial limitations or full absence of internal sovereignty, partial limitations or full absence of external sovereignty or limitation of both internal and external sovereignty. I section these four categories into further subcategories. These break up the quasi-states according specific characteristics in given subcategories. There is a general description of characteritical trait at each subcategory that belong into the subcategory. Subsequently brief analytical case studies are being produced for each subcategory. Their objective is to clcarify specific traits of each subcategory and substantiate the presumed typology I conclude that in the times of UN we can witness steep growth of sovereign states, which have been very weak already at the time of its establishment. This...
