Traurig, Vítězslav ; Sobotka, Michal (advisor) ; Pokorný, Jiří (referee)
Thesis title Liability for environmental damages Abstract This thesis deals with the position of the institute of liability for environmental damages in the Czech legal order.

Zahálková, Kristýna ; Žákovská, Karolina (advisor) ; Pokorný, Jiří (referee)
1 The role of NGOs in the protection of environment Abstract The topic of this thesis is the role of civil societies in the protection of environment. The civil societies, the most common type of NGOs in the Czech Republic, are legal persons of the private law that, unlike public administration bodies, contribute to the protection of environment voluntarily.

This thesis is divided into two parts that are consequently divided into chapters, subchapters and sub-subchapters. In the first part, the general starting points, in particular legal aspects of the non-profit area and the law of civil societies, including their assessment, are dealt with. Subsequently, the attention is moved to the position of civil societies in the area of environmental law, and to general starting points concerning the public participation in the environmental matters and its division. The second part looks into the roles of the civil societies in the protection of environment itself. Two types of these roles are distinguished: the conflict roles and the...
