Kuželka, Kryštof ; Pavlíček, Antonín (advisor) ; Smutný, Zdeněk (referee)
This work is devoted to analysis of the purposes of copyright using analysis of copyright history, current and proposed legal acts and recent lawsuits. It shows that one of the purposes, the one that is mostly the subject of the lawsuits, is the entertainment industry's effort to restrict copying and sharing of digital works to the public. The last part of the thesis offers a solution. The first part analyzes the very concept of copyright, what are the grounds of its protection, and what has changed with the start of the digital age. In the next section there is description and summary of the world's two most important legal acts in the area of copyright protection -- DMCA, representing an act that is in force and ACTA, representing a proposed act. Next section shows the impact of those acts using recent lawsuits divided according to their substance. This section is also showing unjustifiability of some purposes of the copyright protection, especially protection of the right to copy and share. The last part of this thesis introduces a model, which is using the Creative Commons and crowdfunding, and an application that would allow the public to share and copy digital works without limitations while ensuring remuneration to authors.

Publishing Grey Literature in On-Line Repositories (Copyright Law Perspective)
Šavelka, Jaromír ; Koščík, Michal
The aim of the paper is to provide easy-to-follow guidelines to determine if a document can be published in an on-line repository. It is suggested that the process of evaluation can be formalized to such a degree that the process would be carried out by a non-lawyer. There is a group of rather trivial properties that should decide to which regime the work should be assigned. The presentation outlines the basic principles of the evaluative process which is represented by a tree-like structured set of simple questions. Thus, the presentation generally assesses which properties should a work have in order to be eligible for being made available by a means of an online repository.
