Kernová, Lenka ; Pauknerová, Monika (advisor) ; Dobiáš, Petr (referee)
Private International Law from a Comparative View Succession in Private International Law according to Czech and Austrian Law The aim of the following thesis is to compare the Czech and Austrian rules of international private law in the area of succession and wills. I have chosen this topic, because this area was so far not comprehensively unified, which is to be changed in the early future. Apart from current legislative works on the european field, new internal international private law act is also being prepaired in the Czech Republic. The thesis is composed of 12 chapters and several subchapters. The first chapter describes the historical background of current international private law with special consideration of the succession area. With regard to the common historical development of the two states, it is considered as appropriate initial basis. The two following chapters represent introduction into international private law in general. Specifically the understanding of the term "international private law" in both laws is being analyzed here. And also I attempted to describe the internal structure of Czech and Austrian international private law acts. Starting with chapter 4 I focused on the branch of law of succession. Firstly I tried to introduce the topic with explanation of the given term. As it...

Succesionh in international private law
Joklová, Andrea ; Pauknerová, Monika (advisor) ; Brodec, Jan (referee)
At the moment, the European regulation on jurisdiction, applicable law, recognition and enforcement of decisions in matters of successions is being prepared, the comparison of the respective ruling of the EU Member States presents, therefore, very actual theme. At first, the problematic situations are exposed in this thesis that occur because of the different treatment of the particular legal orders and result into negative consequences which shall be eliminated by the unified European ruling. It concerns the conflict of qualifications, the incidental question, the renvoi and the factor of time. In the second part, this thesis deals with the particular questions of succession. The legal orders of the EU Member States usually contain a choice of law rule referring to succession as whole, while several particular questions, such as capacity to make a will, its content and form, possibility to select the applicable law as well as admissibility of other dispositions mortis causa, are submitted to another choice of law rule. In general, the applicable law is the law of the deceased's last domicile or their nationality. Some states apply the "scission" model where the immovables are governed by their lex situs while the rest of succession underlies to the above mentioned general rule. Apart from the...

Foreign Influences in Constitutional Law
Léko, Kristián ; Hofmannová, Helena (referee)
Kristián Léko: Foreign Influences in Constitutional Law Comparative method has become one of the main trends of contemporary law. Constitutional law is no exclusion. Foreign law is often used as an inspiration in drafting, amending and interpreting of modern constitutions in many states, as well as in the Czech Republic. This thesis illustrates this fact on practical examples and creates a theoretical basis in Czech, with stresses on history, taxonomy and methodology. The first two chapters analyse the history and importance of both general comparative law (Chapter 1) and comparative constitutional law (Chapter 2). Chapter 3 analyses some methodological aspects of comparative law and Chapter 4 shows several patterns, how, when and where can foreign law have influence on domestic legal systems. The last three chapters examine three situations of foreign influence - constitutional drafting (Chapter 5), constitutional amendments (Chapter 6) and constitutional interpretation (Chapter 7). In all these chapters, basic theoretical and comparative background is set and then Czech and Czechoslovak examples are being analysed. It is possible to sum up that Czech constitutional drafters, amenders and interpreters (constitutional judges) are all using foreign arguments in some degree. However, there is no common...

Abuse of Law in the European and Comparative Context
Fuksová, Lucie ; Kühn, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Beran, Karel (referee)
Abuse of Law in the European and Comparative Context This thesis aims at description and assessment of the principle of abuse of law in the Czech law. Characteristics and consequences of abuse of law are provided and put into context of legal systems and cultures different from the Czech one. Two major aspects of abuse of law are compared: its origin (i.e. emergence, legal basis in relation to character of given legal culture) and actual characteristics and ramifications of application of abuse of law. Where applicable, the consequences of the doctrine are provided separately for private and public law. In the Czech law, this sorting is more fine. This means that more branches of law are being characterized. European law, on the other hand, is not divided into any formal categories. The first part provides general theoretical basics. It deals with the way that legal principles work in the legal system and what is their role among other elements of law such as goals and values, and legal norms on the other hand. It provides description of the way that legal principles work during creation and application of law. The thesis also deals with consequences of application of the principle of abuse. The leading idea of this thesis states that "We must see the abuse of law to know it.". It is thus very...

Territorial self-government in a comparative perspective: Japan and the Czech Republic
Křížek, Jakub ; Kopecký, Martin (advisor) ; Svoboda, Petr (referee)
The purpose of my research is to analyse the territorial self-government in Japan and the Czech Republic from a comparative perspective and provide an outline of the main differences and similarities between the legal conception of local and regional self- government in these two countries. The thesis is composed of ten chapters, each of them dealing with some typical features of the Japanese self-government, such as the constitutional foundations, the personal and territorial dimension of Japanese prefectures and municipalities etc. While the odd chapters are mainly analytical, the even chapters focus on a more detailed comparison of the aforementioned legal issues with their respective equivalents in the Czech law. The first two chapters deal with the question of the constitutional foundations of the territorial self-government in both countries, finding great similarities in both legal conceptions, the main difference being the express provision for direct election of mayors and governors in the Japanese one. Subsequently, the author gives an overview and detailed analysis of the so called basic elements of the self-government, namely population, territory and legal personality including the right to self-government. While the fundamental features of them may overlap in both countries,...
