Vliv korupce a demokracie na ekonomický růst
Rais, Jonáš ; Svoboda, Miroslav (advisor) ; Bartoň, Petr (referee)
This paper analyses the effects of corruption and democracy on economic growth. Corruption is found to have significant negative effect on growth. Substantial part of the corruptions' effect is caused through corruption's transmission channels. More precisely, corruption is found to negatively affect investments, schooling, trade openness and positively affect inflation and political instability. Those effects are somewhat dampened by corruption's negative impact on government spending. Furthermore, while democracy is found to have no direct impact on growth, corruption is found to be more detrimental to growth in countries with autocratic regimes rather than in democracies. Democracy thus has mitigative effect on corruption.

Trust in Economics
Priesemeister, Juliane ; Dlouhý, Martin (advisor) ; Fíglová, Zuzana (referee)
In the ongoing debates about the reasons and impacts of the financial crisis 2008, trust is supposed to play a relevant role. Unaware of this future happening the economic researchers Paul J. Zak and Stephen Knack published a paper in the late 90's, where they tried to find a correlation between economic growth and trust. Their applied model proved that there is a connection between the level of confidence and the economic wellbeing, represented by GDP growth. If this is still the case, after the dramatic damages of the worlds financial systems, and if the model is adoptable to prove again the correlation with today's data, is the content of this thesis. With the help of a regression calculation not all the findings of Zak and Knack could be confirmed. Some show an opposite development, some have still the same impact and others are not statistical significant. But nevertheless it demonstrates that trust, and its determinants, are correlated to the economic progress of a country. Moreover is proved that trust can be influenced - negatively, by high degree of inequality, and positively, with a low degree of bribery and economic discrimination.

The effect of political decisions on GDP: Can poverty be solved politically?
Králová, Barbora ; Volenec, Otakar (advisor) ; Kochan, Jan (referee)
This thesis examines whether democracy leads to economic development. GDP graphs are used as indicators of economic development, Polity IV's graphs as indicators of the political situation in the respective country. Three Subsaharan countries are examined: Nigeria as a country that prospers thanks to its mineral supplies, Ghana as one of the developed countries in Subsaharan Africa and Zimbabwe as an autocratic country ruled by a dictator. Links between democracy and economic development have been proved fully in Ghana, partially in Zimbabwe and the Nigerian economy is dependant on the world oil prices more than on its democratic development.
