An analytical perspective on bi-regional integration between the European Union and selected Latin American integration groups
Císařovský, Adam ; Krausz Hladká, Malvína (advisor) ; Soukup, Jaromír (referee)
The Bachelor's thesis on Analytical Perspective on Bi-Regional Integration between the European Union and Selected Integration Organizations in Latin America presents an up-to- date analysis of partial forms of bi-regional cooperation between the European Union and two selected integration groupings - i.e CELAC and MERCOSUR. The thesis describes the objects of activity and the institutional possibilities of each of the selected Latin American organisations, and then describes the course of negotiations between these organizations and the European Union to date. Although the thesis is partly devoted to a historical summary, the main contribution of the thesis lies in the possibility to elaborate the current developments on the EU-CELAC and EU-MERCOSUR axis in the year 2023. In the case of EU-CELAC relations, the results of the bi-regional summit held in Brussels in 2023 are examined, while on the EU-MERCOSUR axis, the stage of negotiations on a free trade area between the European Union and MERCOSUR countries is examined. The above issues are set within the theoretical framework of regionalism and multilateralism. The bachelor thesis primarily uses the method of descriptive, critical and qualitative analysis. The results of the thesis consist in understanding the roles of the different Latin...
Czechoslovak-British Relations in 1953-1957
Žíla, Erik ; Soukup, Jaromír (advisor) ; Plechanovová, Běla (referee)
The thesis deals with the Czechoslovak-British relations in 1953-1957. The thesis is divided into the three parts, which are analysing the development in the aforementioned period. Each part has own chapter. These parts are political and diplomatic one, economic one and last but not least cultural one. The political part includes the basic framework of international relations in the aforementioned period, then deals with brief summary of post-war development of mutual political relations. The next main part of chapter mentions the influence of German question and Suez Crisis. The political part concludes with the subchapter about general tendencies of mutual Czechoslovak-British relations. The economic part is opened with the brief introduction of post-war development of mutual political relations. The next main part of chapter is dedicated to some mutual relations in the matter of nuclear power for civilian use. The same as the previous chapter also the economic part is concluded with the subchapter about general tendencies of mutual economic relations. The final cultural part starts with mentions of brief summary of post-war development. The main part of chapter comprises also two subchapters about Whitehaven fund and Lidice Shall Live Committee. The cultural part is concluded again with the...
Large Extracellular Vesicles in Cell Culture and Blood: Role in Prion Transmission and Detection by Flow Cytometry
Soukup, Jakub
Prions (PrP) are the main cause of neurodegenerative diseases such as Scrapie in sheep, bovine spongiform encephalopathy, chronic wasting disease in deer, and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans. Although the cellular PrP (PrPC ) is involved in many cellular processes, its precise function still needs to be discovered. The disease is caused by the accumulation of a pathological form of PrP (PrPTSE ), which is caused by direct contact of PrPTSE and PrPC . PrP is anchored in the membrane by GPI and can be transmitted by cell-to-cell contact, tunnelling nanotubes, or extracellular vesicles (EVs). EV factions are divided by different biogenesis into exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies. PrPTSE was found in exosomes and microvesicles, but these fractions were never compared to each other. The first aim of the doctoral thesis is a comparison of PrP content, prion-converting activity and infectivity in these fractions on CAD5 and N2a-PK1 cellular models of infection. We isolated a fraction of large EVs (20,000× g) and small EVs (110,000× g) by centrifugation from a conditioned medium. We characterised EVs by cryo-electron microscopy and western blot with Alix, TSG-101, CD63, CD9, and HSP70 markers. The contamination from other cellular compartments was checked by calnexin. EV fractions differed...
The Impact of Neoliberal Reforms on Latin American Population
Feťko, Jozef ; Kučerová, Irah (advisor) ; Soukup, Jaromír (referee)
Neoliberalism evokes strong reactions in the minds of both its proponents and detractors. With the so-called second Pink Tide washing over Latin America recently and the growing rejection of the legacy of neoliberalism in countries like Chile, many academics have started proclaiming it dead and outlived. Yet there are still those who defend its legacy and claim it should have gone much further. This thesis critically engages with these arguments using both theoretical and empirical arguments that point to the inherent contradictions baked in the neoliberal theory, its flawed assumptions, as well as the high social costs that neoliberal reforms inflict on the populations affected by them. Additionally, it explores the historical development of neoliberalism during the Pinochet rule and its transformation after the 1982 crisis in Chile, which has famously been called the "lab of neoliberalism" and was long used as a model for economic development by many mainstream economists and international financial institutions.

Modeling the impacts of combined climate events on the growth, development and yield parameters of field thermophilic vegetables and oilseed rape in a decision support system in the field of agrotechnology transfer - DSSAT. This book will introduce you to the latest information technologies and their applications in agriculture, including decision support systems, crop simulation models and other computer tools. It should also help you to solve problems at the regional level on issues related to crop production and other issues related to agriculture, natural resource management and cropping systems and food security, as well as issues related to climate change and variability. This professional book offers users the appropriate supplementary material to enable them to continuously meet the demands of a changing climate. The book is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part summarizes basic information about simulations of crop production, water and nutrient management, climate risks and environmental sustainability. In the practical part, the procedures for working in the DSSAT program (Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer) are presented.
Covering families of triangles by convex sets
Krajči, Samuel ; Kynčl, Jan (advisor) ; Soukup, Jan (referee)
A convex universal cover of a family M of sets in the plane is a convex set that contains a congruent copy of every element of M. Park and Cheong conjecture that for every family of triangles with bounded diameter there exists a triangle that is a smallest universal cover of this family. We prove this conjecture for every family of all triangles with the lengths of their two sides fixed, every family of all triangles with the length of a side and the size α of the opposite angle fixed (where α is from an interval (0, λ]∩[3π/7, π) with λ being approximately 0.396π), every finite subfamily of a family of all triangles with the length of a side and the size α of the opposite angle fixed (where α ≥ π/2). 1
The impact of Brazilian presidents on international relations in the region after 1945.
Navara, Jáchym ; Krausz Hladká, Malvína (advisor) ; Soukup, Jaromír (referee)
The subject of this work is a descriptive analysis focusing on the influence of Brazilian presidents on regional international relations after the year 1945. Using available sources, the goal of this work is to assess how the influence of the Brazilian head of state on the region changed and, as a hypothesis of this work, globalization and democratization affected the relative impact of such influence, if at all. The strength of the Brazilian head of state is presented as it is limited by the Brazilian constitutions, as well as other factors concerning the inner political landscape of Brazil, which serves as context to analyse personalities and approaches of the heads of state to regional international politics. This project would like to serve as an outline or a foundation for further detailed research, that could use psychological approaches to provide a broader assessment of the relation between personalities, influence and regional international relations of Brazil.

Soukup, Jiří ; Crossan, William Morea (advisor) ; Bednář, Miloš (referee)
Title of the thesis: Continuation of athletic careers of graduates of sports classes of a chosen school. Aims: The main aim of the Bachelor's thesis is to identify the factors that may influence the early termination of an athletic career. Methods: The thesis uses qualitative research in the form of an interview with the head of the sports classes of the selected school and quantitative research in the form of a questionnaire that was sent to the graduates of the sports classes of the selected school. Results: The main reasons why graduates quit athletics are interests in other activities, injuries, the time commitment of athletics, transferring to high school, generally not enough time, and the breakup of a group. Keywords: organized sport, education, physical education, primary school, athletics
Alternating paths in colored point sets in convex position
Papáčková, Marie Guadalupe ; Valtr, Pavel (advisor) ; Soukup, Jan (referee)
This thesis deals with the problem of the longest alternating paths in colored point sets in a convex position, especially in point sets with n red and n blue points. The aim of the thesis is to summarize the main results in this area and put them in context. First, we present the basic concepts and the algorithm for finding the longest alternating path on a specific point set. We express l(n), the largest number such that for each arrangement of 2n points with n red and n blue points, there is an alternating path of at least l(n). We show the connection of l(n) to the problem of the largest separated matching. We present the most important lower and upper bounds of l(n), including the best ones published so far. Finally, we generalize the problem for multicolored point sets and show the related problem about (anti)palindromic subsequences of binary circular words.
