The Personality of the Bishop of Ceske Budejovice Simon Barta (1920-1940)
ŠMÍD, Marek
The thesis deals with the life, work and activities of the bishop of České Budějovice Šimon Bárta (1864-1940) in the period of 1920-1940, when he headed the diocese of České Budějovice. The study is based on sources from the state archive in Třeboň (fund of bishop archive), contemporary periodicals, official Church documents and numerous literature. Bárta's life is set in a historical and religious context of the First and Second Czechoslovak Republics and Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, while in thematic blocks attempts to reconstruct the episcopal activity of the eighth bishop of České Budějovice. The significant part is dedicated to Bárta's administration of the diocese, organizing the Eucharistic Congress in 1927, changes in the local seminary, national tensions and the bishop's position in the hierarchy of the Czechoslovak bishops. The thesis thus represents an interesting contribution to the history of the Church in the first half of 20th century.

Codification of the Rules of Diplomatic Protection
Špaček, Metod ; Šturma, Pavel (advisor) ; Ondřej, Jan (referee) ; Šmíd, Marek (referee)
This thesis deals with one of the modern topics of international law - diplomatic protection. It provides for its comprehensive assessment from a wider and deeper perspective on the background of the codification process, which culminated in 2006, when the International Law Commission (ILC) adopted 19 Draft Articles on Diplomatic Protection. In the current state of international law, diplomatic protection is based on customary international law. It is an instrument to protect nationals (be it a natural or legal person) by their state of nationality, if they injured by another (host) state in violation of international law. Under the current definition, diplomatic protection means the invocation (through peaceful means) by a state of the responsibility of another state for an injury caused to a national by an internationally wrongful act of that another state. The aim of diplomatic protection is to implement this responsibility. The application and exercise of diplomatic protection is considered to be a sovereign, discretional right of the state, although the thesis points out the some recent developments in international law towards the need to recognize the rights and interests of the individual, as well as the constitutional practice of some states guaranteeing its citizens a (domestic) right to...

Critics of democracy from the Czech Catholic positions in years 1918-1938
Šmíd, Marek ; Doubek, Vratislav (advisor) ; Šebek, Jaroslav (referee) ; Wiendl, Jan (referee)
Kritika demokracie z pozic českého katolického prostředí vletech 1918-1938 nebyla osamoceným jevem meziválečného období, ale logickým a rozhodným pokračováním kritiky společenského řádu, započatého v období po Velké francouzské revoluci. Zatímco se tehdy ekonomický vzestup evropských zemí, způsobený nástupem průmyslové revoluce na konci 18. století, neustále zrychloval, církev zůstávala pevně ukotvena 'na jednom místě', odmítavě se stavěla vůči moderní době, pokroku, technice a rozumu a snažila se posilovat vlastní cíle způsoby, které nenacházely v liberální společnosti 19. století příznivou odezvu, čímž ztrácela podporu věřících, její vliv na dění ve společnosti slábl a ona pozbývala všeobecné autority, jíž se dosud těšila. Církev přestávala plnil roli garanta intelektuálního a uměleckého dění. [...]

In this chapter I analyse the decline of the church and the reasons for it, politicization of the catholic movement, Masaryk's interest in Catholic Modernism, agreements and disagreements between the two parties, the personalities of J. S. Machar, K. Dostal-Lutinov and S. Bouska and extensive affairs which occurred in this period (Rieger's affair, Chaplains' affair, Kohn's affair, Juda's affair and suchlike). The last chapter (Conclusion) sums up the points of disagreement and the level of discrepancy between T. G. Masaryk and Catholic Modernism. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Šmíd, Marek ; Pavelka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Janíčko, Pavel (referee)
The Master's thesis deals with analysis of the minimum wage in the Czech Republic and European Union. The first three chapters describe the function and development of the minimum wage, as well as the theoretical approaches of the minimum wage. Furthermore the arguments for and against the minimum wage are summarized. In the practical part the development of the minimum wage in the Czech Republic from 1991 is analyzed and the minimum wage across the EU countries is compared. The last analysis follows minimum wage based on further criteria: unemployment rate and poverty. The results show that during the years, in which the minimum wage increases more than average wage, the unemployment rate in Czech Republic is higher. Moreover, the countries with higher minimum wage have lower in-work-poverty rate.
