Heverová, Lucia ; Jinek, Jakub (advisor) ; Svoboda, David (referee)
The diploma thesis studies the basic concepts of communication in the context of the online environment and seeks whether there are ethical starting points for users participating in content creation on the Internet (produsers).

In view of the basic question of the thesis, general ethical principles and the essence of journalistic and media ethics are also presented, because it was journalism that gave rise to the content creators from among the public even before the Internet. Since the subject of research is the active public on the Internet, the work deals also with the basic human right to freedom of expression and related regulatory legislation.

Šťastný, Ondřej ; Hofmannová, Helena (advisor) ; Gronský, Ján (referee)
(K práci pouze volně přikládám, protože abstrakt není vyžadován platným zněním Rigorózního řádu Právnické fakulty Univerzity Karlovy). Mgr. Ondřej Šťastný Rigorózní práce se zabývá vybranými aspekty svobody projevu tak, jak je vymezena v našem právním řádu a v právu mezinárodním a evropském. Zvláštní pozornost věnuje limitům svobody projevu a střetům tohoto politického práva s jinými základními právy. Významná část práce je věnována detailnímu rozboru zásadních judikátů, které v posledním desetiletí formovaly podobu a meze svobody projevu v České republice. Konkrétně jde o vesměs hojně veřejně diskutované kauzy, ve kterých figurovala média. Jsem přesvědčený, že je to právě konkrétní soudcovské dotváření práva, kde lze vysledovat mnoho inspirativních právně-filosofických názorů na to, jak má svoboda projevu v naší (stále ještě mladé) demokracii vypadat.

A part of this section is a smaller sub-section containing one of many cases of race attacks.

Campaign Finance in the U.S. : McCain-Feingold Reform
Vydra, Pavel ; Sehnálková, Jana (advisor) ; Calda, Miloš (referee)
The United States has a long history of political campaigns. The Bipartizan Campaign Reform Act of 2002, also known as McCain-Feingold, was the last attempt to regulate the campaign finance. Being enacted in order to cover the loopholes that occurred in the Federal Election Campaign Act, this act banned the "soft money", it modified the rules for the pre- electional broadcasting, and it brought special restrictions for self-financing candidates. These changes succeeded to be enacted by both chambers of Congress, were signed by the President and upheld by the Supreme Court in the McConnell v. FEC landmark decision. However, the impact of the reform didn't quite meet the expectations of its supporters.
