Knowledge transfer through academic entrepreneurship in the Czech Republic
Macháček, Vít ; Srholec, Martin
The study brings first quantitative evidence on the scale and scope of knowledge transfer through academic entrepreneurship in the Czech Republic. The main finding is that Czech academics do not shy away from taking on entrepreneurial opportunities. Admittedly, this is in a sharp contrast with the image of weak entrepreneurial spirit in academia that prevails in general public based on statistics showing low payments of business enterprises for contractual research and licensing fees to research organizations. The results are discussed with regards to implications for public policy.

Hodková, Petra ; Kotýnková, Magdalena (advisor) ; Richterová, Marcela (referee)
The goal of the diploma thesis is to perform an analysis of the labour market and of selected measures of active employment policies in the course of 2005 to 2015 and to evaluate its development during the observed years. The theoretical part of the thesis engages in the development of employment policies in the European Union as well as in the Czech Republic and in the characteristics of state employment policies. In the practical part of the thesis the analysis of the Vysočina region and of the regional labour market is performed. The following part analyses individual measures of employment policies and characterises new employment policy measure, "kurzarbeit". In the concluding part of the thesis recommendations leading to potential improvement of the situation on labour market in the Vysočina region are offered. The main output of the thesis is the realization that measures of active employment policies are not flexible enough to promptly react on the development of unemployment during the observed years, which was the case for example with the implementation of kurzarbeit. The analysis also shows that financing of active employment policies is heavily influenced by the funds the state receives from the European Social Fund.

Fiscal rules in the Czech republic after joining the EU
Šafránek, Patrik ; Ježek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Vebrová, Ludmila (referee)
This thesis concerns fiscal rules which represent a possible solution of excessive deficits of public budgets. The chosen topic is very relevant as most developed countries are now facing the problem of fiscal imbalance. The aim of the thesis is to analyze existing rules in the Czech Republic and to formulate recommendations for its public budgets with regard to the specifics of the economic and political environment. The main hypothesis is that fiscal rules in the Czech Republic are not well designed and do not contribute to the stabilization of public finances. This hypothesis was partially proved true. Proposal to strengthen the fiscal framework by implementation of the reform of medium-term expenditure frameworks and by adopting debt rule at the constitutional level results from the realized findings. Further recommendation is to establish independent fiscal institution that would oversee the fiscal policy in the Czech Republic.

What everyone should know. Introduction to labour law
Němcová, Ladislava ; Dandová, Eva (referee) ; Beneš, Milan (advisor)
Ve své bakalářské práci jsem se snažila zpracovat otázky, které podle mne souvisejí s problematikou pracovněprávních vztahů, týkajících se převážně a hlavně občanů české republiky, ale i občanů jiných států, kteří působí na území ČR. Mnohdy si ani neuvědomujeme aspekty, souvislosti a vazby, které spolu úzce souvisí. V této práci poukazuji na význam pracovního práva a hledám souvislosti mezi pracovní silou a tržní ekonomikou. V první kapitole obeznamuji s počátky vzniku základů i soudobé tržní ekonomiky a s podstatou tak složitého jevu, jaký je tržní ekonomika. Popisuji rozlišení různých stavů nezaměstnanosti a okrajově přibližuji politiku zaměstnanosti. V dalších částech se zaměřuji na téma pracovního práva a hledám souvislost mezi právem a pracovní silou. Zároveň okrajově seznamuji s názory a úvahami některých dřívějších filosofů, týkajících se člověka. Popisuji roli odborových organizací v procesu práva na kolektivní vyjednávání a upozorňuji na důležitosti existence odborů ve vztahu k zaměstnavateli. Zájem o všeobecný přehled týkající se tržní ekonomiky, politiky zaměstnanosti a znalosti základních pracovněprávních dokumentů, s nimiž se zaměstnanci v každodenním životě setkávají, popřípadě, které, potřebují sami znát a zapojení se do pracovního procesu, by mělo být hybnou silou vývoje každého jednotlivce...
