Discrimination on grounds of sex and legal limits
Pukovcová, Kateřina ; Kühn, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Wintr, Jan (referee)
SEX DISCRIMINATION AND THE LIMITS OF LAW The thesis deals with sex discrimination from a theoretical point of view, it does not offer simple answers, but tries to bring proposals to improve current inconvenient estate of treatment of men and women, which can't be considered to be equal. Generally equality is one of the basic values in society, but it is difficult and is failed to fulfill this principle. The main reason is that people follow prejudices and can't get over them. Formal equality of men and women before the law was reached, but factual inequalities persist. That is why a special effort is justifiable and essential to enforce equal treatment. Level of achieved equality indicates progressivism of a country and standard of living generally. If, in case of women, more than half of a population is out of impact, sources and human dignity, democracy is not perfect and faultless. Therefore it is necessary to find and eradicate the latent barriers, change people's attitude and get the prejudices out of their minds. The thesis consists of four main chapters. First chapter concerns terms equality and discrimination and shows their uncertainty, describes various conceptions of equality and direct and indirect discrimination. Second chapter explains necessity of enforcement of equal treatment with men and...

Bartošek, Jan ; Maršálek, Pavel (referee) ; Kühn, Zdeněk (advisor)
142 Abstract Economic Analysis of Contract and Contract Law (Master Thesis) Jan Bartošek This thesis analyzes contracts and contract law from the Law and Economics point of view. In other words, in this thesis, economic approach is utilized to assess the above mentioned areas of law introducing and employing crucial concepts such as the Coase Theorem (and its underlying notions of the efficiency of law), Posner's theory of market-mimicking law, or Guido Calabresi's concept of legal rules. Moreover, various attitudes toward the economic analysis of law are addressed; and the status and future of Law and Economics (with regard to the European and especially Czech context) are considered. The argument is structured in three parts: the first part summarizes the historical development of Law and Economics and presents its standard analytical tools; the second part embraces the problems of contract and contract law within the framework of Law and Economics (perfect and imperfect contracts or the problem of efficient breach); and, finally, the third - analytical - part of the thesis applies the economic tools to the judicial decisions-making process both in general and in real life by reviewing two sets of decisions made by the Supreme Court of the Czech Republic. In sum, the thesis' three-tier structure does not...

Jiřištová, Zuzana ; Kühn, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Beran, Karel (referee)
70 Resumé Philosophical, Theoretical and Practical Aspects of the Legal Regulation of Doping Doping in sport is a topic that is not thoroughly explored in the Czech legal environment. This thesis will attempt to remedy this gap in two steps. First, it will summarize the status quo with regards to doping, its definition, its history and the current state of regulation. Second, it will propose a solution to the question of whether, why and how should be the doping regulated. The text is divided in six chapters, the first four focussed on the world of doping today and the last two on proposing a solution. The first chapter introduces the problems of elite sport and the use of performance enhancing substances. This is followed by a brief excursus into relationship between the law and sport with a focus on the world of global law. The third chapter covers the history of doping, providing definitions of the doping and briefly explaining the physiological impact of performance enhancing substances. The fourth chapter presents a snapshot of the current regulation in international, European and Czech law, as well as in 'sports rules' imposed by private organisations. The fifth and sixth chapters together propose a solution. The fifth chapter identifies and defines the two possible approaches to regulation, zero...

EKONOMIE KRIMINALITY NA PŘÍKLADU DOPRAVNÍCH NEHOD V ČR
Vilimovský, Petr ; Běláčková, Vendula (advisor) ; Kühn, Zdeněk (referee)
Tato práce se zabývá racionálním chováním ekonomických subjektů v podmínkách rizika v mimotržní oblasti ekonomiky, dopravní kriminality. Na základě analýzy dopravní nehodovosti, počtu usmrcených a výši hmotné škody se potvrzuje, že změna pravděpodobnosti dopadení představovaná dopravně bezpečnostními akcemi ovlivňuje dopravní kriminalitu v ČR. Práce dále zkoumá, zda také změna výše trestu představovaná zavedením novely zákona č. 411/2005 Sb., o silničním provozu, ovlivňuje dopravní kriminalitu v ČR. Na základě analýzy těžce a lehce zraněných osob a osob usmrcených dochází k závěru, že změna trestu na chování řidičů na českých silnicích vliv nemá.

Economic Analysis of Judicial Activity
Zabranská, Monika ; Kühn, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Munzi, Tomáš (referee)
The thesis deals with the problem of the monopoly structure of the modern justice system and the heavy regulation of most fields of dispute resolution. In this system, judges themselves comprise a self-interested group seeking relaxed regulation and increased rights from the government. The thesis describes inefficiencies and dangers stemming from the lack of market control of the modern justice system and suggests an alternative in the form of a private justice system. The purpose of this paper is to examine both the problem of successful implementation of competition into the current justice system, while describing various models as to how the private justice system could function without state control, with examples from history. This paper further examines the economic differences between private and public justice systems in terms of incentives, efficiency, the process of law creation, speed, and consumers' satisfaction, as well as the conditions under which different systems work best. The main conclusion of this paper is that society should allow all subjects desirous of opportunities to provide goods and services through new enterprises, even in areas currently the exclusive domain of the state, as doing so brings an increase in quality, speed of solution/service, and innovation.
