Cultural heritage and development of tourism in Orlík region
VLASÁKOVÁ, Veronika
The aim of this work is to evaluate the cultural heritage in the development of tourism in the region of Orlicko. For studying, there were used secondary and primary data. Thanks to marketing research, we got 1,584 valid questionnaires. There were used computer programs (MS Excel and Statistics Cz v. 6) for data processing. The data interpretation tools used descriptive statistics and the analysis of testing hypotheses. There was conducted field research of the area. The monuments were entered into the newly formed layers of geographic information system Janitor in the form of polygons. In the region of Orlicko, there exist more than 130 cultural monuments in 21 types. These results confirm the presumption about diversity of the structure of assumptions heritage tourism. This diversity is also noticeable in the villages of the defined area. More than 5 types of monuments offer urban areas Varvažov, Čimelice, Orlik nad Vltavou and Mirovice. In the first four there is localized at least one attraction of a greatly importance. These communities also show the highest potential. It was demonstrated, that the importance of cultural heritage in the areas is different. There were found significant differences in the motives and characteristics of the target site, which affect the choice of place of holiday. These differences were detected in groups partitioned by gender, level of participation in cultural and historical attractions and by their interest in history. The main motives for holiday were: to release from everyday life and work, visit interesting places and get them known. Participants wish to leave their homes for having fun and change the place. The importance of cultural and historical attractions in the locality is increasing in conjunction with participation in cultural tourism and the increasing interest in history. The same tendency can be seen in knowledge as a reason for holiday. When the holiday place is selected the highest importance is: natural environment, the existence of historic cities in the region, a healthy environment, the possibility of refreshments and meals, and bathing options. For women, it is more important the existence of the cultural and historical attractions in the region and associated motives, than for men. In the designated area, there are high requirements for the use of cultural heritage in the development of tourism. Major attractions are concentrated in several villages. The region is not primarily associated with the culture; the motives of visitors are more connected with recreation. There is also possibility of developing cultural and historical attractions as a source of secondary supply.

Reasons for using Marihuana and frequency of its use
STACHOVÁ, Veronika
The theme of my bachelor thesis is called Reasons for Using Marihuana and the Frequency of its Use. No other drug divides the professional public as much as marihuana does. New findings of international research lead to increasingly hot discussions to what extent marihuana is harmful to health and, especially, why it is so popular with young people. It remains an alarming fact that experiments with marihuana occur at lower and lower ages. Cases of first use of cannabis before the age of thirteen are no exception nowadays. Thanks to continuing scientific research, information on cannabis drugs increases, but the sufficient amount of the newly obtained data may be doubted because all prevention efforts fail especially with marihuana. On the one hand, this drug is presented as harmless and its risks are played down, and, on the other hand, absurd deterring myths are made up. This bachelor thesis investigates the motives that lead young people to using cannabis drugs, and the extent of awareness of health risks resulting from its use. The theoretical part of this thesis deals with factors that increase the risk of experimenting and thus the resulting use of marihuana, as well as the actual motives of the use of cannabis. Last but not least, it describes individual health risks. The theoretical part also deals with the theory of marihuana as the initiation drug. The investigation aim of this thesis is to find out the motives leading to the use of cannabis, and to try to survey the knowledge of health risks of marihuana users. To achieve these aims, I used the qualitative research by means of the conversation method. There are altogether eight questions concerning these areas: the circumstances and motive of the first time use of marihuana, circumstances under which the user consumes the drug, negative experiences caused by acute intoxication, the main motive of cannabis use at present, further the knowledge of health risks connected with the use of the drug and other habit-forming substances, the theory of marihuana of the gateway drug and making marihuana legal. The research set consists of secondary school pupils. Four hypotheses were established on the basis of the research results. Hypothesis No. 1: Risks connected with the use of marihuana are underestimated by the users themselves. Hypothesis No. 2: Adolescents using marihuana do not have sufficient knowledge of health risks. Hypothesis No. 3: The negative effect of marihuana (bad trip) does not motivate most of its users to abstain from it. Hypothesis No. 4: The most frequent motive of the first time use is curiosity.

China in Africa - development and motives of cooperation
Kučerová, Tereza ; Dvořáková, Vladimíra (advisor) ; Knotková, Vladimíra (referee)
The China-African relations have a tradition of several centuries. However, in last two decades, the character of their relations changes and is getting the dimension of a phenomenon. Currently, China is in a very advantageous position - one leg in the developing world, the other in the developed one. Its economic growth reaches about ten percent a year and its economy has enlarged beyond the state's frontiers. China thus becomes dependent on the international trade in both export and import of sources. The African continent can offer both. This situation, however, is hardly compatible with the role of a superpower which China desires and which is attributed to it by many specialists. This thesis analyses three motives of mutual cooperation - commerce, raw materials and political and strategic interests. Its aim is to give a compact and comprehensive picture which will prove the trueness of the three motives. For better accession and understanding, case studies of selected countries are an integral part of the thesis.
