Europeanization of Parliamentary Parties in Czech republic
Kučerová, Lucie ; Just, Petr (advisor) ; Novák, Miroslav (referee)
The process of the European integration finalized institution-wise by the EU presents an evergreen discussion topic of virtually all the areas of social studies. One out of many consequences of this phenomenal integration scheme of the modern times is the topic of europeanization of the national structures of the single member states. This thesis is focused on discovering the rate of europeanization and analyzing the overall attitude of the parties represented in the parliament of the Czech Republic. As the research on europeanization is struggling with methodological and terminological ambiguity, the first chapters of the thesis are devoted to the overview of the most important conceptions, models and approaches in relation to the europeanization topic. There is also space for the phenomena related to the europeanization process (euroscepticism, political parties on the EU level and so on). The specific analytical frame reflecting the main criteria of the research of the Czech political parties is consequently introduced based on the detailed description of terms and concepts. Europeanization is assessed in the minimalistic way - as process closely related to the existence of the EU. The europeanization process itself is then understood as a reflection of the European integration in the domestic...

Adenosine signaling in Drosophila
KUČEROVÁ, Lucie
This thesis characterizes adenosine signalization in Drosophila and describes response to adenosine in various cell types. Extracellular adenosine mediates most of its physiological effects through its receptors but recent data also indicate that adenosine transport also has important physiological functions. It was shown in this thesis that adenosine stimulates only cAMP second messenger system in Drosophila cells endogenously expressing AdoR. The pharmacological profile of the DmAdoR was established using the cAMP functional assay. The utility of the agonist 2-chloroadenosine and antagonist SCH58261 were examined in flies in vivo and compared with phenotypes of DmAdoR mutants. The responses of Drosophila cells to adenosine mediated by adenosine transport were also examined. Different cell types exhibited striking differences in adenosine uptake and adenosine recycling that were closely connected with the regulation of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. This thesis provides an important foundation for the study of interactions between adenosine receptor and adenosine transport.

The influence that has volunteering on professional apply
KUČEROVÁ, Lucie
In my thesis, I focused on the effects of volunteering on professional employment chances of graduates. The theoretical part is devoted to volunteering, its kinds, and its importance to the personal development of volunteers. The other half of the theoretical part of this thesis is devoted to jobs and their comparison with volunteering. My objective was to find out whether employers prefer, when selecting their employees, graduates who have experience and skills from volunteering, and how this experience is viewed by employers in the non-profit sector as compared with employers outside the sector. I used the method of questioning, the technique of questionnaires, and controlled interviews. The results were elaborated in graphical form with absolute figures and tables using the chi square statistical test. The results of this thesis have confirmed my initial hypotheses, namely that employers prefer graduates with experience from volunteering and that the experience from volunteering of graduates is evaluated as an important element in recruitment, especially by non-profit sector employers. A following step to improve understanding of volunteering by employers would be, I my opinion, to suggest changes to legislation that would help organizations make better use of volunteer assistance. I would like to suggest to volunteers themselves to record better their volunteering activities so that they can use such materials as an attachment to their CV{\crq}s when applying for a job.

Volunteering as a part of professional development of the students of ZSF JCU
KUČEROVÁ, Lucie
Volunteering is currently establishing its place in the life of the general public in the Czech Republic. More and more students take part in volunteering programs. Volunteering has many positive sides for the organizations that involve volunteers in their activities as well as for their clients and it enriches the lives of volunteers themselves. In the theoretical part of her work the author describes volunteering in the Czech Republic in the past and present. She investigates volunteering, the preparation of volunteers, their professional preparation during their studies and their supervision at the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice. The aim of the work is to map out the influence of active volunteering on the professional lives of the students of ZSF JU (Health and Social Department, University of South Bohemia). The next aim is to establish what students know about the possibilities of volunteering, what percentage of students are active volunteers and if they relate volunteering to their professional development. The research method was asking questions, the technique was a questionnaire and a managed interview. The respondents were students of full-time studies at ZSF JU studying the following subjects: Rehabilitation and Psycho Social Care of Handicapped Children, Adults and Old Age People (both bachelor and master studies) and Prevention and Rehabilitation of Social Pathology. The results of the research show that students are aware of the positive influence of volunteering on their professional development. They know the benefits of volunteering with regards to using knowledge obtained at school, learning new procedures and gaining new knowledge. The hypothesis ``Students of ZSF JU are not aware of benefits of volunteering for their professional development{\crqq} was rejected. The hypothesis ``Taking part in volunteering programs helps students gain new skills{\crqq} was proved. The results of the research can be used as information and study material for the support of volunteering at and outside of ZSF JU. It can also help raise awareness of individual programs at ZSF JU and on the opportunities volunteering gives students.
