An empirical estimate of the pre-crisis Taylor rule of the Fed using real-time data
Mrázek, Martin ; Potužák, Pavel (advisor) ; Kadeřábková, Božena (referee)
This thesis analyses the monetary policy of the Fed in the period before the financial and economic crisis 2007. The aim of this analysis is to investigate whether the monetary policy significantly deviated from the preceding one which, according to John Taylor, adhered to the Taylor rule. This analysis is performed using both revised and real-time data. I compare the monetary policy with various specifications of the Taylor rule. I also estimate a forward-looking Taylor rule. The results confirm the deviation from the Taylor rule. However, deviations were usual in the whole sample period. Estimated models do not indicate that the monetary policy before the crisis was different from the rest of the analyzed period.

Social security an old age
Blahovcová, Lucie ; Kučerová, Eva (advisor) ; Marcel, Marcel (referee)
The subject of the thesis is an evaluation of how the economically active population of the Czech Republic is preparing for a time when they will receive a pension. The theoretical part is devoted to social policy, its basic characteristics and typology of social systems in Europe. This part is followed lyrics dealing with the development of the pension system in the Czech Republic with a description of the current three-pillar system. More attention is paid canceled the second pillar and experience with him in Poland and the Slovak Republic. The thesis focuses on the third pillar, which supports more merit principle. The research part of the thesis builds on the theoretical basis and through a questionnaire survey investigates how people rely on funding from the state and how much saving themselves for the purpose of security in old age.

Immunity of Members of Parliament in Selscted States: Study 1.175
Medková, Eva ; Nemeth, Marek ; Syllová, Jindřiška
V obecném úvodu je popsán institut parlamentní imunity jako jeden z nástrojů ochrany nerušené činnosti zákonodárného sboru. Jeho historické kořeny sahají již do středověku, kde bylo nezbytné chránit nově se vytvářející stavovská shromáždění před zásahy tehdy mocných panovníků. Postupem historického vývoje se institut rozpadl na dvě rozdílné a přesto propojené části, na neodpovědnost poslanců a na jejich nestíhatelnost. Zatímco neodpovědnost chrání proti stíhání za hlasování a některé projevy, které v parlamentu činí, často v rámci výkonu svých povinností, nestíhatelnost zabezpečuje, že je poslanec chráněn před zákonným stíháním trestného činu, správního deliktu či občanskoprávního aktu. Zatímco právní úprava neodpovědnosti je ve zkoumaných zemích více či méně obdobná (doba jejího trvání bývá neomezená, možnost jejího odejmutí je ve většině případů vyloučena), je právní úprava nestíhatelnosti značně odlišná. Jednotlivé úpravy (až na drobné výjimky) spojují dvě věci. První z nich je prolomení imunity ve smyslu nestíhatelnosti poslance v případě, že je přistižen při činu (někdy úplné jindy částečné), druhou je stanovení doby, na kterou se nestíhatelnost vztahuje (jde v naprosté většině případů jen o dobu výkonu mandátu poslance). Jsou však i takové země, které nestíhatelnost neupravují a staví tak poslance ve vztahu k trestnímu a příp. i správnímu stíhání naroveň běžnému občanovi. S jednotlivými právními úpravami rozsahu poslanecké imunity, které ve zkoumaných zemích platí, se může čtenář seznámit v přehledné tabulce.

Expression of Kunitz-type recombinant protein, potential toxin from the salivary glands of the tick \kur{Ixodes ricinus}
CERMANOVÁ, Tereza
Ticks feed on their vertebrate hosts for number of days, providing enough time for development of an effective immune response. To overcome this, tick saliva contains a complex mixture of active substances which mediate host defense mechanisms. Extremely important role at the tick-host interface is played by the protease inhibitors. In this work, we have focused on the protein named Ixocludin 2, a member of the Kunitz type/Bovine trypsin inhibitors of serine proteases, related also to the potassium channel blockers toxins. Three different expression systems (Escherichia coli, Chinese hamster ovary and Pichia pastoris) were tested to prepare an active recombinant Ixocludin 2, out of which, only bacterial system was in part successful.

The impact of the waiting period implementation on the sickness insurance in the Czech Republic in the years from 2008 to 2014
Pekárková, Kateřina ; Kubelková, Karina (advisor) ; Bartůsková, Lucia (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the implementation of the waiting period into the sickness insurance in the Czech Republic in the years from 2008 to 2014. The theoretical part explains the fundamental concepts related to the sickness insurance, the health insurance allowance and the waiting period. The practical part consists of a legal analysis and the current happening around the waiting period in the Czech Republic or in the EU and EFTA member states. The income and expenditure analysis of the sickness insurance helps to reveal that the costs of sickness insurance have decreased, which was also due to the implementation of the waiting period. This work evaluates data, which indicate that the short-term morbidity has decreased as well as the work incapacity. There are detailed calculations in the conclusion which show how adjustments in the sickness insurance changed the amount of wage compensation and the sick benefits. The aim of this work is to identify and quantify the benefits and costs of the waiting period implementation within the sickness insurance in the Czech Republic.

Spontání příjem a preference lizů v konkrétním chovu jelenovitých
Navrátil, Stanislav
This work is analyzing a preference of mineral licks for cervidae. It's goal was to reveal mineral composition, that will be the most suitable for these animals by monitoring their intake and preferences of mineral licks. For this purposes has been chosen Fallow deer (Dama dama). This member of cervidae is very popular among breeders in Czech Republic. The experiment was held on Vysočina highlands, near Kozlov village in Ing. Dufek's hobby farm. The Fallow deer were monotored since march 2013 to february 2014. For evaluation of amount and frequency of intake were used standard staticstic methods. There was used a digital weigh for weigh analysis and camera trap, which countinuously monitored movement near the licks, was used for data gathering. During the experiment there has been discovered, after the comparing of literature following up this toppic, that the Ca:P ratio is completely different than beef cattle calcium: phosphorius ratio. The best intake had lick with 1:1 ratio. Cattle preferred ratio is 1,9:1.

Antipredation behaviour of meercats (Suricata suricatta) in the group kept in ZOO Jihlava.
ZÍTKOVÁ, Jana
Meerkat (Suricata suricatta) is a mongoose species from South Africa. Insects are the primary food sources of their diet. Meerkat lives in groups of 2?30 individuals with a developed social structure. The group consists of a dominant pair and a different number of helpers of both sexes, which are involved in various forms of cooperation, for example care for cubs, guard service and maintaince of burrow. Meerkats are at risk of predation by mammalian predators, avian predators and snakes. One meerkat always seems to be a sentry and stands guard to keep the gang safe. When the guard senses danger they give a warning bark and the other members run for cover into their burrow. This study was done from June to September 2011 in zoo in Jihlava on a group of meerkats, which consisted of 13 individuals. There was used the method of direct observation by a scanning behaviour (behaviour sampling). Observation was specialized on sentinel behaviour. The main aim of this work was evaluate the results of observation and then compare this results with behaviour in the wild. By monitoring was demonstrably found, that dominant individuals contributed to guarding more frequently and the longest time and the juveniles contributed at least. There wasn´t set order in guarding. The most often was individually guarding or guarding in a group of 2 or 3 individuals.

Scientific Research Capacity and Innovation in the EU - Virtuality
Slavický, Marek ; Němcová, Ingeborg (advisor) ; Procházková Ilinitchi, Cristina (referee)
In today's globalizing world high-quality research and development is becoming an even more significant requirement for a competitive country. Modern communication technologies open up new possibilities of a simpler, cheaper and more effective long-distance cooperation between researchers. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to provide insight into the current state of scientific research in the EU and determine, how the new communication technologies are used on the level of the EU and its member states. Virtuality can be understood as any type of communication mediated by computers over information networks. The first chapter presents general characteristics of scientific research and shows how virtuality influences it. The second chapter describes the development of scientific research, current trends, institutions and programs in the EU and analyses the application of virtuality in scientific research in the EU. Similarly, the last chapter focuses on the state of virtuality and scientific research , but on the level of national states, specifically the Czech Republic.
