Numerical simulations of MHD waves in the solar corona with gravitational field
ŠEBÍK, Matěj
The aim of this bachelor?s thesis is to numerically simulate propagation of impulsively generated waves and oscillations in a plasma of the solar corona using a numerical code FLASH. This program is used to create a model of propagation of the MHD waves in a so-called current-sheet layer. The model should correspond with an observations obtained by modern solar probes. There are clues implying that a gravitationally stratified solar atmosphere affects the progression of the MHD waves in a time evolution. Therefore the gravitation effect is inducted in the calcullation. The last part of the text discusses the given differences with and without gravitation.

On the nature of the divergent economic outcomes during the post-Socialist transition
Skorokhodova, Irina ; Cahlík, Tomáš (advisor) ; Sojka, Milan (referee)
The focus of this thesis is to introduce the reader with the recent developments in the countries in transition from the centrally-planned economy towards a "healthy" democratic system with free market relations. The main aim is to analyze the divergence of paths the countries have experienced in the course of transition, particularly, the rapid recession and a following recovery, since it is critical for any country already experiencing the transition (from any system "A" towards any system "B") or just preparing itself for the process. The comparative analysis in the form of case-by-case and point-by-point methods dominates in the research. The work tries to answer two basic questions: "Why had the post-Socialist countries in transition face a serious output decrease and, generally, an economic recession?" and "Why the developments were divergent throughout the region?" The existence of output recession is proved with the help of several economic indicators, such as evolution of GDP, inflation rate, registered unemployment rate, Human Development Index, composition of GDP by sector, but also G1NI coefficient and poverty ratio, etc. Initial conditions index, Transition progress indicator, Liberalization index, Index of institutional quality, etc. support the second part of the thesis. In search for reasons...

Multilateralism in the European Neighbourhood Policy
Prošková, Barbora ; Weiss, Tomáš (advisor) ; Šlosarčík, Ivo (referee)
This paper focuses on the existence of multilateral relations among European Union and its Eastern neighbors. The purpose of this paper is to study whether and to what extent multilateral relations have existed with Eastern states since the introduction of European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP). Paper deals as well with the progress of these relations emphasizing mainly the evolution after the release of Eastern Partnership. An in-depth examination of different aspects of the above mentioned relations confirms the paper's assumption that the multilateral type of relations have existed since the startup of ENP and that they were deepened by Eastern Partnership. The final part of the paper is devoted to the assessment of multilateral dimension of Eastern part of the European neighbourhood, its interpretation enriched by current debates.

The Power Elite in the Process of Globalization
Svobodová, Hana ; Prorok, Vladimír (advisor) ; Lehmannová, Zuzana (referee) ; Pecka, Emanuel (referee) ; Ransdorf, Miloslav (referee)
The topic elites, respectively political elites comes alive with the authors and their texts of different levels and it is examined philosophers, political scientists, sociologists. The concept of the elite, but also inflects common language of everyday life. We hear f. e. "elitists, verchuska, barons, peacocks etc. So, terms of showing the pejorative tinge. This so-called ordinary perception is often influenced by the actual operation of the representatives of this group, class, and of reflection to what occurs in practice, seen and perceived by the people in everyday life, in mutual contact or indirectly (own experience), but also media, reading and absorption of available evidence and their own conclusions about them. It is therefore a reflection of some subjective effects as a result of the power brokers and their recipients, who are but one way or another subject objectively shaping the conditions in which they operate. The topic elites, respectively the role of powerful groups and individuals, even if their social significance "fettered" the nature and evolution of human society is experiencing in its so-called turning moments (alternating power, the crisis of society, an important political, but also cultural changes, etc.) its "boom." It should not remain only in succumbing to a kind of fashion, historically conditioned atmosphere, even the media-mediated, but it should be a responsibly organized social discussion on the very foundations of the functioning of today's power elite, in which special importance is the concept of the liberal governance. This is not just about the more familiar "powerful" or look through "gossip" in a keyhole finder for this or that politician, celebrity or her family, but also the need to seriously begin to deal with issues of power, its functioning in terms of content and form, impact on other areas of the social life, and the need to reflect on just how far today's elite meet them as well as the importance progressive award or the progressive part of society that one way or another manages, organizes, and generally affects the lives of most companies. Today, even many emphasized the global meaning and context.

Depiction of media in British dystopian fiction
Bakič, Pavel ; Clark, Colin Steele (advisor) ; Pilný, Ondřej (referee)
The purpose of this thesis was to trace the depiction of media in British dystopian fiction, or rather some of its most prominent landmarks. In its course, however, a need of eclectic approach became apparent, as each novel invited a different framework of interpretation, at least partly: H. G. Wells's The Sleeper Awakes fuses mythological elements with very current exploration of self-definition in the world of freely circulating media images, A. Huxley's Brave New World presents electronic media as dangerous to the proper balance of individual faculties of the human mind, G. Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four prophesizes the destruction of an individual by ever-escalating state control of media, made possible by technological progress. A. Moore's and D. Lloyd's V for Vendetta adopts and re-imagines all these concerns in a post-modern, self-reflexive and metatextual manner. A more extensive selection of primary texts could possibly yield a clearer line of the theme's evolution throughout the 20th century, or at least succeeding or competing trends in its treatment, but the current, narrower choice bespeaks the considerable individuality of vision in the represented authors' works, even as they often address similar issues and engage in a dialogue by means of shared motifs and concerns.

Process of adoption of the Slovak autonomy law in Slovak and Czech print media dated since October 6th, 1938
Krištofík, Juraj ; Rychlík, Jan (advisor) ; Kvaček, Robert (referee)
The master thesis talk about the progress if events in Slovakia since October 6th until the enactment of the autonomy law in November 1938 mainly through the eyes of the most important slovak and czech newspapers. Based on the printed news the author of this thesis tries to find the paper's stand to the slovak autonomy. A great deal of attention is dedicated to the internal and foreign politics of the Autonomy and its reflection in the print. As for the internal politics, the author looks into the rise of Slovak people's party led by Hlinka and it's attempts to enforce the totality in Slovakia. On the other side the foreign politics puts emphasis on the discussions about area abbandonment with Hungary and Poland. The main goal of the thesis is to point out the essential evolution tendencies of the Slovak autonomy through the eyes of slovak and czech newspapers.

Gene Therapy and the Evolution of Cancer Treatment
Douglas, James Joshua ; Černá, Marie (advisor)
The continued understanding of gene structure, function and how its product interacts in the human body has lead to new wave of ideas on cancer therapy. Gene therapy, which 20 years ago was just a dream is now a very real possibility and alternative to the conventional treatments. Three new methods of utilizing alternative gene structure and manipulating the body's response to induce a tumor effect are presented here. Immunotherapy is the induction of the human immune system against an unwanted antigen. Viral oncolysis is the utilization and manipulation of natural human pathogens against tumor cells. Gene transfer is the addition of deletion of vital genes responsible for cell growth and apoptosis.

Brentano´s Conception of the “rational theism“
Pauza, Miroslav
Brentano´s conception of God is based on Arstotle´s approach to the „natural philosophy“ and in the same time on principles of the „descriptive psychology“ of Brentano. His „rational theism“ should be the continuation of the theology in the sense of its transformation, it means not of its negation or a simple evolution.

Europeanisation of Criminal Law: European Union and Criminal Law
Pevná, Eva ; Herczeg, Jiří (advisor) ; Gřivna, Tomáš (referee)
1 Abstract - Europeanisation of Criminal Law The Europeanization of criminal law is a convergent process of national criminal orders. This paper focus on a progress made within the political hybrid - the European Union that had no competences in this field in the beginning. Firstly, I present the evolution of the primary law up to the present situation. Next there is an overview of the EU Agencies. The core of this work is to present the newest changes set up by Lisbon Treaty and Stockholm Programme and to chart the evolution of the cooperation that I try to evaluate in the conclusion. The Criminal Law represents a highly particular area of the international cooperation because this legal subject is considered to be one of the most basic elements of the state sovereignty. Thus, any external intervention to the national criminal law presents a hit to the state sovereignty. Another obstacle to the international cooperation in the criminal affairs is the diversity of national criminal orders. Besides, this diversity is believed to be an expression of national peculiarities and any attempt to unify anything in this area is considered to be an effort to repress national differences. We can not deny the symbolic value of the national codifications. Anyway, the biggest problem to the international cooperation is...

Application of logistic technology in contracts for automotive industry
TESAŘ, Petr
The point of this bachelor thesis was to find a way, how are aplicated the logistic technologies in chosen organisation ISOBAST s.r.o., which produces and works on products from expanded plastics and plastics, mostly for automotive industry. Today company uses the emancipatory strategy JIT. In the light of how big the company is and how produces, we can suggest of using another logistic technology {--} Kanban or EQM. Each of this technologies has its advantages and disadvantages. As advantage we can consider a simplification of logistic processes which causes increase of produktivity. Proper implementation of logistic technologies decreases time costs, storage costs, order and transport costs. During starting this process some troubles should show up, because founding new technologie is connected with high training costs and new identification facilities costs. The next disadvantage of some technologies is higher transportation load and negative influence on enviroment. Because of continual increase in numbers of competitors is necessary to monitore the evolution and technological progress
