Discrimination and Unintended Consequences
Švaňa, Ivan ; Munzi, Tomáš (advisor) ; Koblovský, Petr (referee)
The thesis is divided in two parts. The first, theoretical part familiarizes the reader with the term "discrimination" in economical theory from past until present and helps to understand the nature of economical problem of discrimination. Consequently, its modern forms, the efforts of governments to solve this problem by including the anti-discrimination precautions into the law and present state of discrimination at labour market in Czech Republic are described. The second, practical - analytic part, is dedicated to analysis of unintended consequences of anti-discrimination precautions, the analysis of state interventions economy in given area, possible question of moral hazard, and oddities of mature anti-discrimination policies of Germany or USA. Based on these analyses, the conclusion is dedicated to my approach to discrimination at labour market and to own ideas how to understand and solve given problem.

Architecture and feminism in Czechoslovakia in the first half of the 20th century
Guzik, Hubert Kamil ; Švácha, Rostislav (advisor) ; Dulla, Matuš (referee) ; Czumalo, Vladimír (referee)
This thesis examines the relationship between architecture and feminism in the first half of the 20th century in Czechoslovakia. It opens by defining the dynamics of Czechoslovak feminism and architecture with regard to the theory of social movements. This text primarily focuses on the program, objectives and the modus operandi of the liberal branch of feminism, represented mainly by the non-partisan organization Ženská národní rada (Women's National Council). Members of this Council believed they could actively participate in shaping of the government policy on the social standing of women and maintained a close relationship of their organization to the state polity. We view this belief and this relationship as a model valid for a wide range of other women's organizations in that period. We consider these links the most important factor in determining the feminist organizations' relation to the movement of modern architecture.We follow the interaction of architecture and feminism in three chapters. The common denominator is the position of these two movements to modernization processes that were taking place in the nation state, in particular to the advent of the theories of scientific management. This main topic also determines the time frame of the text, beginning with formulating of social ethos in the...

Non-invasive prenatal diagnosis based on the presence of extracellular fetal nucleic acids in maternal circulation
Vullum, Kristin ; Hromadníková, Ilona (advisor)
Prenatal diagnosis is now part of established obstetric practice in many countries. However, conventional methods of obtaining fetal tissues for genetic analysis, including amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling, are invasive and constitute a finite risk to the unborn fetus. Approximately one procent end with abortion because of the procedure, even though the fetus is healthy. Other methods also exist, that without risks, can give information about certain conditions that the fetus might have. But a certain diagnosis can not be given without several different examination methods by a specialist. It has been a long-sought goal in human genetics to develop methods of obtaining fetal genetic materials for analysis, without putting a risk on the mother and fetus. Research in this field have been intensified the last years, mostly because of technologically improvements that have given us new techniques and new valuable information. Based on analysis of fetal nucleic-DNA in maternal blood, pregnant women are able to get a diagnosis that is totally risk free for the fetus. Unfortunately, with new technology there will always be new problems that need to be discussed and solved before they can be used in clinical practice. The ideal situation would be that there was some kind of world wide policy for the...

The life quality at family members of clients with drug addiction depending on their sex
ŠVANCAROVÁ, Alena
The National Strategy for Antidrug Policy for the period 2005 to 2009 is a key document nowadays. Situation in the field of drugs remains stable. Cannabis products and ecstasy are illegal substances used in most cases. Two basic appliances {--} questionnaires and interviews {--} were used in the research of this bachelor thesis. The investigated complex comprised 37 parents and 22 siblings. The sample was determined with random selection. The aim of the research was to define the period of the worst stress at family members of clients with drug addiction. Just the discovery of a family member{\crq}s drug addiction was indicated the worst stress period. Changed appearance, telling lies and change of friends were described as the main indication leading to the conclusion of a family member{\crq}s addiction. Depending on the discovery of problems with drugs the family contentment is changing considerably. It turned out that men solve their family situations connected with drug addiction of a member in a completely passive way. That is why there is a very bad cooperation with curative institutions. The research shows that respondents-siblings were informed on their sibling{\crq}s addiction much earlier than their parents.

Těžba v Predator-Prey modelu
Chrobok, Viktor ; Lagová, Milada (advisor) ; Kalčevová, Jana (referee)
The paper is focused on the Predator-Prey model modified in the case of harvesting one or both populations. Firstly there is given a short description of the basic model and the sensitivity analysis. The first essential modification is percentage harvesting. This model could be easily converted to the basic one using a substitution. The next modification is constant harvesting. Solving this system requires linearization, which was properly done and brought valuable results applicable even for the basic or the percentage harvesting model. The next chapter describes regulation models, which could be used especially in applying environmental policies. All reasonable regulation models are shown after distinguishing between discrete and continuous harvesting. The last chapter contains an algorithm for maximizing the profit of a harvester using econometrical modelling tools.

Changes of the system of social partnership in Austria and its future perspective
Týmová, Slavomíra ; Just, Petr (advisor) ; Jüptner, Petr (referee)
The Austrian social and economic partnership is a specific system of co­ operation between the major economic interest groups, labour unions and between them and the government. Based on close voluntary co-operation between employers, employees and state (government), it constitutes the specifically Austrian manifestation of the system of reconciling interests and ranks Austria high among scales of corporatism in the relevant literature. What diversify the Austrian social partnership and the Austrian form of corporatism (so called Austro-corporatism) is its coverage - practically all areas of economic and social policy used to come under the social partnership tripartite cooperation. This cooperation of interest groups is mostly informal and is not regulated by law. The social partners are represented by four large representative organisations. On the employees' side these are the Austrian Trade Union Federation (OGB) and the Federal Chamber of Labour (BAK), and on the employers' side the Federal Economic Chamber of Austria (WKO), and the Standing Committee of Presidents of the Chamber of Agriculture (PRAKO). After World War II, the government, the industry and the trade unions started the social partnership cooperation mainly to avoid the social and industrial conflict and to assure the social...

The timber viewtower
Lecián, Martin ; Straka,, Bohumil (referee) ; Buchta, Stanislav (advisor)
The master's thesis deals with design and static assessment of loadbearing structure the timber viewtower on the hill Hostyn. The shape of the structure is very close oblate spheroid. Towers plan shape is a regular octagon whose outer diameter varies along the height. Tower in the footing and in the top measure 10,5 meters, at mid-height measure 6.5 meters. The height of the viewtower is 35 meters and view floor is located at a height of 30.5 meters. The main structure of tower consists outer towers curved wooden columns and interior steel column. Columns support the horizontal beams and bracing provide rigidity of the structure. The roof has a pyramid shape towers and tends to 17 °. Outer columns are designed from glued laminated wood GL24h, others carrying wooden beam are designed from solid timber C24 steel rods are designed from steel S235. Connections are solved using steel components. The work includes structural calculation, technical report and drawings.

Economic consequences of China's One-child policy
Letko, Roman ; Bartůsková, Lucia (advisor) ; Pavlíček, Tomáš (referee)
The objective of this diploma thesis is to describe and to complexly evaluate Chinas one child policy from its introduction in 1979 till its abandonment in 2015. Theoretical part of thesis offers a detailed description of the policy, its application in real life, circumstances and aims that led to the implementation of the policy. Applied part of thesis analyses its effect on the fertility rate, population growth and economic growth. According to the results of this analysis one child policy helped to decline Chinas fertility rate and population growth, however its impact is just partial. The decline of Chinese population growth then contributed to the economic growth; my estimate is that it composed 40 % of average annual growth of real GDP per capita. One child policy is also responsible for raising sex ratio and ageing of population in China. These demographic problems let to its replacement by two child policy that probably wont solve these problems.

Central Bank Monitoring - December 2016
Česká národní banka
Most of the central banks under review are maintaining their interest rates at the current low level or considering a further monetary policy easing. For example, Norges Bank is considering lowering its key rate and the Riksbank increasing the volume of purchased bonds. The Reserve Bank of New Zealand has lowered the key rate further. The ECB left interest rates unchanged in the previous period but extended its bond purchase programme and adjusted its parameters. On the other hand, the global economy is watching anxiously whether the Fed’s interest rates increase as expected at the close of this year. Spotlight addresses the effect of climate change on the financial sector, including central bank policies. In our Selected speech, member of the Executive Board of the Deutsche Bundesbank Andreas Dombret focuses on the perspectives of business models of commercial banks.
