Pork barrel in Czechia in 2003-2009: spatial dimension and the identification of some causal factors
Hána, David ; Kostelecký, Tomáš (referee) ; Feřtrová, Marie (advisor)
The aim of this diploma thesis is an attempt to reveal a regularity and dependence in spatial distribution of the pork barrel (i.e. the parliamentary grants) in the case of Czechia in 2003-2009. Moreover, the thesis attempts to identify some undermining factors of the proven spatial pattern in allocation of pork barrel financial sources. The selection of supported projects highly depends on subjective preferences of particular deputies being influenced by many factors. Accordingly, the diploma thesis examines a role of the spatial distribution of deputies' places of living and their influences on the spatial allocation of the pork barrel through the state budget being approved in the Lower House.

Matrimony - preconditions for the occurence and consequences of its dissolution
Bartončíková, Jaroslava ; Dvořák, Jan (advisor) ; Švestka, Jiří (referee)
90 X. RÉSUMÉ In my work I deal with marriage, specifically with the conditions of its inception and the consequences of its demise. In spite of the fact that the crisis of family and marriage has been discussed extensively in the last years, marriage remains the fundament of a family and a relationship that gives birth to children. The decline of the number of marriages in the Czech Republic can be seen as being caused by the creation of a space for individualization, for free lifestyle, both in men and especially in women. Marriage is no longer regarded as an institution serving the purposes of the whole but in the future should serve mainly to individuals. One of its characteristics is the higher age of people entering into marriage, and the number of people living as lifelong singles has been increasing. Another alternative to marriage, living as partners without entering into marriage, is gaining a prominent position. It could be seen as caused also by adverse economic conditions, the growth of the costs of living, the lack in social welfare, housing etc. It is also characterized by the transition to a one-child family model. Natality has been decreasing, while the ratio of children born outside marriage has been increasing. The divorce rate has likewise been increasing. The stability of marriage,...

Impact of Today's Family Crisis on Children's Socialization
Votavová, Pavla Marie ; Dvořáková, Markéta (referee) ; Havlík, Radomír (advisor)
Family is the staple part of society and state. Its basic functions are reproductive and sexual function, social-economic, emotional function and socialization. This social unit is affected by many factors. Also because of their influence, family has lost much of its original status. State tries to support families through financial support, suitable housing policy, as well as in the area of employment relationships. In spite of all this, less and less people get married and vice versa, the number of divorces rises. Now, so-called singles have also entered our society. Bad relationships in family, or its break up, have very negative impact on child development. The presence of a father is of crucial importance. The father can work as the best prevention from the delinquency of children and youth. Well spent free time also has a great impact on the future of children. It is very difficult to put a finger on what has to be changed, but the true is that this change is crucial for development of the Czech society.

The image of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Grand Duchy of Moscow in Early modern news service of Czech nobility (1450-1618)
PRAŽÁKOVÁ, Kateřina
The thesis concentrates on the image of Mid Eastern European countries which was presented in the first newspapers. The focus was laid on handwritten newspapers (form of newssheets) that originated in the middle of the 15th century. Soon they became an influential intelligence and communicative medium. They were read on the courts of monarchs and high nobility. Since the middle of the 16th century they were also subscribed by town councils and church institutions like convents or bishoprics.The news spread further to other social groups by means of correspondence and rumor. The decline of handwritten newssheets did not begin until the second half of the 17th century. Handwritten and printed news service coexisted until then. While printed newspapers and pamphlets mainly described and commented on extraordinary stories, handwritten newssheets regularly brought reports about the events that happened in the last weeks. The author made thorough research of three collections of handwritten newssheets gathered by members of high nobility. Another common sign is the concentration of newssheets in the second half of the 16th century. They are the collections of Lords of Rosenberg, of Hradec and Lobkowicz. Especially after the House of Rosenberg more then 1 000 newssheets and other news service materials have been preserved whereas many of them are really unique. While exploring these documents, the author posed a question about which of the events that happened in the Kingdom of Poland, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania or in the Grand Duchy of Moscow drew the attention of the intelligencer. The author examined the spirit of this news and the information about the rulers, aristocrats, townspeople as well as common people from the eastern Europe they offered to the readers. Under the influence of the methodological directions inquiring into the perceiving of otherness by meeting different cultures she described the changes in viewing the Eastern European countries from the end of the 15th to the beginning of the 17th century. Thus she traced the origin of some stereotypical opinions that persisted through centuries. In addition, she dealt with the question how the subscribers of the newspapers reacted to the submitted reports. The aim of the thesis was the description of the image of the Kingdom of Poland, Grand Duchy of Lithuania and Grand Duchy of Moscow as well as an insight in the reception and interpretation of news on the aristocratic court in the early modern period.
