Artistic performance and its copyright protection
Ericssonová, Michaela ; Holcová, Irena (referee) ; Křesťanová, Veronika (advisor)
ENGLISH SUMMARY Art Performance and Its Copyright Protection The main goal of my thesis is to describe and explain the fundamental principles on which is based the copyright protection of art performance. My paper is divided into three parts, namely, The Sources of law, Art performance, and The Performer`s rights to his art performance. 1. Sources of Law The basic legislation is the Constitution of the Czech Republic, which considers the rights to the results of intellectual creative activity as fundamental human rights. International treaties, binding on the Czech Republic, are also very important. The performer`s rights are regulated especially by The Rome Convention for the Protection of Performers, Producers of Phonograms and Broadcasting Organisations (1961). The Czech Republic, as any other member of the European Union, has to comply with European legislation, especially European directives. This condition is met by the Copyright Act - No. 121/2000 Sb. (Collection of Laws), as amended, which regulates the copyright and related rights. The performer`s right is very close to copyright, that is why many provisions concerning the work and copyright is applied - mutatis mutandis - to the performer and his performance. 2. Art Performance The art performance comes into existence upon performing the work of...

Tax base of corporate income tax
Zajíčková, Miroslava ; Kohajda, Michael (referee) ; Boháč, Radim (advisor)
74 Summary Income Tax Base of Legal Persons Legal regulation of tax base in our conditions is very complex and instable, because tax laws are being adjusted every year. The biggest problem in my opinion are references to Accountancy Act, because the amendments of this act have brought many new elements to accounting, that result in an inevitable need of performing non- accounting operations during the calculation of tax base for legal persons. Furthermore, I am not sure, whether the current tendency of decreasing the tax rate, can be sustained, particularly in the conditions of the present complicated economic situation. The impact on public budgets in the Czech Republic is the question. It is positive, when the setup of tax law reflects the current situation, but I think that too frequent changes to the taxation system - as they were done in the last years - do not suit the legal certainty. It is necessary to introduce regulation, that will be stable and simpler, because the present Income Tax Act is confused and unnecessarily complicated. I think that the proposal of a new Income Act, in its current shape, gives hope for taking the right direction. The Commission's proposal of common common consolidated corporate income tax base is a good idea, but it can also be a danger. It is necessary to consider...

Polmová, Olga ; Gřivna, Tomáš (advisor) ; Vokoun, Rudolf (referee)
163 SUMMARY This work is focussed on the status of an injured person by a criminal activity in Czech criminal proceeding. It tries to give a coherent view to this topic in the conditions of the Czech criminal law when it takes its bearings on contemporary valid legislation, to mention its weak points and suggest the solution. After the introduction which is also engaged in main objectives of this work and also the reason why the author of this work has chosen this topic, the author firstly defines the conception of the injured person and also the victim of a crime which are not, according to her opinion, the same. The separate chapter is dedicated to the problem of secondary victimization of the injured and the victims of crimes. The secondary victimization prevention also reflects in international documents of international organizations which are mentioned in this chapter too. As it has been said above, the main substance of this work is an analysis of the status of an injured by a criminal activity in Czech criminal proceeding. The main part of this work is shaped by a description of particular rights of the injured during the criminal proceedings which are legally berthed in Czech Criminal Code. The author tries to analyse this contemporary legislation, to point out weak points and application problems...

The analysis of regulatory functions Czech telecommunication office
Pátek, Zdeněk ; Zeman, Karel (advisor) ; Zemplinerová, Alena (referee)
The thesis will focus on the question what the measure and the form of regulation should be. This issue will be applied to the case of the Czech telecommunication office. In the theoretical part, the definition of regulation, as well as its impact will be defined. This section will reflect the opinions of experts from different economic schools on regulation, as well as the impact of selected regulatory interventions throughout the history. The practical part will discuss the analysis of the Czech telecommunication office from the point of view of historical evolution, and in particular the regulattion authority. In addition, the regulation mechanism shall be discussed alongside the influence of European regulation authorities that regulate the Czech telecommunication market. The thesis will also deal with the jurisdiction of the office and its contributions, as well as its negative impact on the economic activity in the private sector. The aim of the thesis is to analyse the role of regulation in the development of selected spheres of action of the Czech telecommunication office. The office will be analysed both with an emphasis on the changes in the role of regulation, as well as the efficiency of its interference in the market. Special care will be taken to ensure accuracy in the use of the designated means for regulation and whether relevant market really failed whilst conducting the analysis.

Comparison of ontogenetic and phylogenetic development of understanding of phenomenon infinity in the geometrical context
Krátká, Magdalena ; Vopěnka, Petr (advisor) ; Novotná, Jarmila (referee) ; Potůček, Jiří (referee)
Nekonečno, ať to matematické, filozofické nebo teologické, fascinovalo a fascinuje lidstvo od počátků utváření vědeckého myšlení dodnes. Mnoho matematiků se nechalo omámit slastným pocitem toho, kdo rozřešil záhadu, když filozofovali nad problémy založenými na nekonečnu. Stejný pocit mohou zažít dnešní studenti, když znovu objevují překvapivé vlastnosti nekonečného. Podobné pocity jsem měla při studiu matematické analýzy, teorie množin nebo Zénónových aporií i já. Asi právě proto jsem se rozhodla zabývat se ve své disertační práci nekonečnem. Protože mám i zálibu v historii matematiky a měla jsem to štěstí pracovat pod vedením profesora Petra Vopěnky, bylo nasnadě zaměřit práci právě na srovnání ontogenetického a fylogenetického vývoje porozumění nekonečnu. Práce je rozdělena do 5 kapitol. V elektronické verzi je navíc doplněna o rejstřík pojmů. V první kapitole představuji argumenty pro i proti srovnávání fylogenetického a ontogenetického kognitivního vývoje. Druhá kapitola je exkurzem do historie matematiky se zaměřením na nekonečno, speciálně na výklady bodu, přímky a kontinua a jevů s tím souvisejících. Obsahuje postřehy o pojetí nekonečna od dob antické matematiky až po Cantorovu teorii množin. Tato kapitola mi jednak umožňuje vytypovat hlavní zdroje epistemologických překážek a dále konstruovat...

The relationship between theoretical and practical lives in H. Arendt and Aristotle
Holub, Štěpán ; Kouba, Pavel (advisor) ; Pechar, Jiří (referee) ; Čapek, Jakub (referee)
The Relationship between Theoretical and Practical Lives in H. Arendt and Aristotle The first part of the work deals with the relationship between thinking, philosophy and political action in Hannah Arendt. The research includes the following: an evaluation of the distance Arendt takes from philosophy; a portrayal of what she herself calls "political theory"; analysis of her critical stance towards the philosophical tradition; and, finally, an outline of her conception of an authentic thinking. The second part is devoted to Aristotle and his position within Arendťs work. It assesses the extent to which Arendt justly ranks among neoaristotelians. Some aspects of Aristotle's philosophy are studied as for their usability within Arendtian approach to politics, as well as for their contribution to the formulation of the ideals of theoretical and practical li ves. In particular, the analysis concerns the Nicomachean Ethics (including reflections on its coherence) and some parts of the Politics. The focus i s on the concept of TÉAos and on the connection between concepts of rrpo~ts and ' I EVEPYEICX.

Legal issues of commercial and investment banking
Tkadlec, Jiří ; Dřevínek, Karel (referee) ; Kotáb, Petr (advisor)
87 Summary The main aim of this Master's Degree thesis is to analyse legal questions about commercial and investment banking. Just before I get to some concrete aspects of these problems, it is necessary to deal with general theses of banking in part one in itself. It is possible and it would be an honour for me, if any ordinary person will read my thesis, so for that reason I think it is necessary to explain at the very beginning what the conception of banking is, what is its object and from which sources the legal form is coming-out. Banking is based first of all on economics. That is the reason, why at the beginning of third subchapter I explain economic characteristic of the bank firstly, following by legal point of view. As a student of law school, and not a student of economics, I should concentrate only at legal nature of my thesis and not economic, but I am really persuaded, that both science disciplines are so connected and close-knitted, so it is impossible to totally disconnect or separate them. Subchapter Four reflects about that and describes essential bank functions. I finally get into banking system in subchapter Five, to its regulation a characteristic of its particular types of banking systems, which outline us slowly the problem of connection or separation of these particular banking...

Special regulation of the consumer bankruptcy resolution
Machek, Petr ; Zoulík, František (advisor) ; Smolík, Petr (referee)
- 76 - 11.Summary in English The thesis deals with the special regulation of personal bankruptcy in the Czech Republic introduced lately by the Act No. 182/2006 Coll., on bankruptcy and its solutions (the Insolvency Act) (hereinafter the "InsA"). The author presents a short history of the regulations of personal bankruptcy in the Czech Republic along with the problems of the former law with regard to its application on natural persons (consumers), and defines the term bankruptcy as seen from the perspective of the consumers. With this respect also the evolution of the indebtedness of consumers is briefly analysed and compared with the indebtedness in other countries coming to the conclusion that the actual state of indebtedness of consumers in the Czech Republic is not serious yet, though its acceleration might be worrying. Hence, the new regulation on personal bankruptcy was more than needed. Further on, the author presents an analysis of the special form of bankruptcy solution designed especially for consumers and introduced by the InsA - namely the "Bankruptcy Discharge" (hereinafter the "Discharge"). The Discharge offers an honest debtor a way out of his debts ("fresh start"). There are two main forms of the Discharge which is Discharge by liquidation of the bankruptcy assets and Discharge by a...
