Sosyphus - life as the constant problem solving
Hejnová, Kristýna ; Pelcová, Naděžda (referee) ; Funda, Otakar A. (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the topic of: "Sisyphus - life as the constant problem solving : The Sisyphus-topic as the point of contact of two different circles, A. Camus' existentialism and K. R. Popper's critical rationalism". Sisyphus, who was sentenced to never ending and nonsensical work, leads us to Camus' interpretation of the character in his work "The Myth of Sisyphus". The figure of Sisyphus depicts the symbol of human's life for Camus. Life is characterized by the permanently present awareness of death and absurdity of life itself. This absurdity is based on the silence of the world - as a kind of answering the question about the meaning of life. Camus' message remains optimistic. He overcomes the absurdity through affirmation. The active human being with his rebellion is the answer. Popper neither uses the term "absurdity" nor "absurd". Equally he does not work with Sisyphus-Symbol. But we use the term "Popper's sisyphismus" in this thesis which means the following: Popper advocates, in his critical rationalism, that human being is fallible, the human's reason is able to critical thinking and his destructive (his ability to falsify is meant) activity can bring us closer to the truth. The permanent problem-solving will never stop. Camus' existentialism and Popper's critical rationalism are...

Protection of basic Human Rights in the African System (Zimbabwe) - and its Comparison with the Continental legal system
Kotršálová, Iva ; Jirásková, Věra (referee) ; Sádovský, Stanislav (advisor)
The diploma thesis in question attempts to map the African regional system of human rights protection, its basic elements, central institutions and the results of their cooperation. The work aims to find out whether the current set-up is capable of ensuring an effective protection of human rights of the African citizens. The first part of the thesis focuses at the definition of human rights in their historical and conceptual context. For the needs of the comparative analysis, a part dealing with the protection of human rights in the continental legal system follows, together with a suggestion of the "superstructural" options that the citizens of the member states of the European Union have disposal of. The African legal system as the guiding line of the thesis is applied on the case of Zimbabwe. This is where practice shows that despite the existence of a formally existing system under the African union and its institutions, the African region is facing serious human rights violations for which there is no sufficient safeguard. The thesis concludes with the provision of a generalizing comparison of the two regional mechanisms of human rights protection and the application of this area of study in the sphere of education and teaching practice.

The Funeral and the Cemetery in the Legislation of the Code of Canon Law in View of the Laws of the Czech Republic
Kotrlý, Tomáš ; Hrdina, Antonín (advisor) ; Opatrný, Aleš (referee) ; Knoll, Vilém (referee)
The dissertation thesis analyses legal guarantees of the respect for human mortal remains and human remains in Canon laws, including the protection of places where they are sepulchred or deposited, i. e. cemeteries in particular, in the course of history in view of secular laws in the Czech lands. It further deals with the Canon legal aspects of ecclesiastical funeral rites. In the Church the rites are understood as a sacramental and through the symbolic meaning thereof they point at Christian hope for resurrection with Christ. Primarily the deceased Catholics, including those who have had serious legal pastoral problems in the course of their lives have got the right to ecclesiastical funeral rites, where they have shown certain signs of penitence prior to their death. The office of Christian funeral rites consists in the accomplishment of the current community of the bereaved with the deceased and strengthening of the hope for the reunion in resurrection. Thanks to Christian faith in resurrection, traditional funeral rituals of pagan nations have transformed in voicing the hope for the eternal life.

Milota Zdirad Polak's Sublime of Nature
Ibrahim, Robert ; Šmahelová, Hana (advisor) ; Hlobil, Tomáš (referee) ; Hrbata, Zdeněk (referee)
Sublime of Nature (1819), a lyrical poem in six cantos and with more than 1800 lines, written by a Czech poet and Austrian officer Milota Zdirad Polák (1788-1856), was at the time of its birth celebrated as the greatest Czech poem, its author labelled a genius and compared to the greatest European poets of the 18th Century. However, in the following decades Polák was gradually falling into oblivion, with literary historians of the end of the 19th and the beginning of 20th Century viewing Sublime of Nature as an unreadable work and its author as a non-poet. This attitude was also true for the 20th Century. However, in recent years some independent attempts have been made to bring Sublime of Nature back to both wider public and scholarly attention. The following dissertation joins these efforts. The aim of this dissertation is not an evaluation of Polák and his work; it is an attempt at interpretation of the text based on comparison of two versions of the poem (book and periodical) and on literary-historical setting of the work. Although Sublime of Nature appeared during a transient era of Czech literature characterized by its syncretism, this dissertation tries to relate Sublime of Nature to the context of (classicist) poetics and aesthetics of the 18th Century and in case of any borderline phenomena always...

Czech and European law of corporate groups
Pudlačová, Šárka ; Patěk, Daniel (referee) ; Černá, Stanislava (advisor)
Czech and European law of groups Résumé: We are in a time of dynamic evolution. It comes to integration and globalisation. Groups of companies are usual economic phenomenon. Groups of companies are to be seen as a legitimate way of doing business. They bring the positive aspects, for example economize costs. But they bring the negative aspects too. They may present specific risk for shareholders and creditors in various ways. It is necessity to have a good regulation of groups for legal protection third subjects. My dissertation work is about groups of companies and their regulation in Czech and European rule of law. Our rule of law is influenced by European rule of law. I describe regulation of this problem in other rules of law at first. I selected French and German regulations of this problem because these regulations are more or less a model for the others. A foundation of German regulation is on wide protection of shareholders, creditors and incorporate companies after a formation of group. German regulation differentiates real groups from contractual groups and consequences which are connecting with them. French system of regulation groups is standing on Rozemblum conception. It is the conception which results from a judgement of a court. In this case a mother company can give daughter company...

Biodiversity protection in the Czech Republic
Jelínková, Eva ; Hadrabová, Alena (advisor) ; Remtová, Květa (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with an actual topic of animal and vegetal species extinction. It defines the term of biodiversity, discusses reasons why the diversity should be protected, what are its threats and how the diversity can be protected (obligatorily by law). There is introduced an overview of legislation for protection of biodiversity in the Czech Republic, specifically international treats adopted by the Czech Republic and laws. There are introduced changes which came about in context of entrance in European Union, mainly in law no. 114/1992 Sb., about protection of nature and country. The aim is to give an overview of the legislation which has been adopted in the Czech Republic to protect biodiversity because legal regulations are the only chance to bring moral sense of the Czechs to protect nature into reality.

Electromyographic Analysis of the Femoral Muscles' Activity in Patiens with a Ruptured and Reconstructed Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Fišáková, Marie ; Valouchová, Petra (advisor) ; Véle, František (referee)
Jnjury of anterior cruciat ligament (ACL) is frequent. ACL lesion has serious consequences on the knee joint biomechanics as well as neurophysiological changes. This study sum111arize the facts in the field of ACL lesion. in ter111s ofin jury, therapy and the return of a patient to daily life. The present research into anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) lesion has shown varying results. We investigated the electro111yographic (EMG) activity of fe111oral 111uscles (se111i111e111branosus 111. (SEMI). biceps femoris m. (BF), vastus medialis 111. (VM), vastus lateralis m. (VL)) during specific physical activities (PA) in the closed kinetic chain (CKC). The main focus was on the protective pattern of femoral111uscles activity in knees with insufficient stability, due to ACL les ion. The study was based on theory as well as previous investigations of "the ha111string reflex". 16 patients with ACL lesion (6 men and 1 O women; mean age = 34 years, range = fro111 15 to 54) divided in 2 groups (with and without ACL reconstruction) participated in this study. The EMG activity of assessed femoral muscles was analysed during 3 specific activities: calm standing (CS), rythmic weight bearing (RWB), forward lunge (FL). The performance of PA were standardized by the use of the forceplate offered by NeuroCom® "Balance...

název v anglickém jazyce není uveden
Jandová, Kateřina ; Langmeier, Miloš (advisor) ; Mareš, Jan (referee) ; Hach, Petr (referee)
Hypoxia of the brain as well as the subsequent reperfusion can seriously alter the tissue microenvironment and result of the functional and structural changes of nerve and glial cells. Results of experimental studies show that some ions (e.g. Mg2+) can interfere with the brain development. To answer the question whether magnesium can modulate changes of neuronal circuits induced by hypoxia and reperfusion effect of magnesium administration on the density of nitrergic neurons (NO synthesising neurons) in the rats exposed to repeated hypoxia during the postnatal ontogeny (12, 25, and 35-day-old) was studied. NO synthesising neurons were identified according to the presence of NADPH-diaphorase (NADPH-d), the enzyme co-localized with NO synthase. Results have shown that the long-lasting intermittent hypobaric hypoxia brings about the increase of the density of NADPH-diaphorase positive neurons in all studied regions of the hippocampus in 12-day-old animals, in 25-day-old only in the hilus of the dentate gyrus, and in 35-day-old in CA1, CA3 hippocampal regions and in the ventral blade of the dentate gyrus. Contrary to that, decreased density of nitrergic neurons was found in groups of animals exposed to hypoxia till the age of 25 days in both blades of the dentate gyrus and in 35 days in the ventral blade and...
