Mottl, Václav ; Novotný, Vilém (advisor) ; Klimešová, Magdalena (referee)
Political parties are fundamental to the functioning of a democratic state. Through them all citizens of the country are being influenced. To work properly, however, the political parties need to gather various sources. Currently, the main source are financial contributions, namely from the state but also from private entities. Financing of political parties, in the form in which it is now, became due to various political corruption scandals subject of discussion. Over time, there has been a transformation of the social climate and calls for changes of the existing rules for financing of political parties have appeared. This bachelor thesis deals with the expert capacities of political parties focusing on their financing. Specifically, expert capacities of Czech political parties ČSSD, Strana Zelených and ANO 2011 are being examined. Nevertheless, the project Rekonstrukce státu is also included, as it is one of the actors influencing this field. This paper deals with how propositions about the issue of financing are being developped within political parties. Who influences shaping those propositions? And how this issue has historically developped?
