Role of the WTO in economic progress of developing countries
Walter, Jan ; Adamcová, Lenka (advisor) ; Dubský, Zbyněk (referee)
Underdevelopment of developing countries is in present one of the thorniest problems of the world. Economic globalisation brings about increasingly deeper integration of world markets and increasing volumes of international trade. Multilateral trading system represented by the World Trade Organization (WTO) is one of the instruments that can, under certain circumstances, strongly contribute to economic progress of developing countries. The goal of the thesis is to reveal such circumstances and describe their coherence with the WTO and its predecessor the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. Firstly, the thesis focuses on theoretical basis of international trade as an instrument of economic development. The thesis also describes possible imperfections of the theory specifically with regard to developing countries. Secondly, the role of the WTO in the process of liberalisation of international trade and its activities leading to reduction or elimination of the imperfections are described. The thesis shows that, on the known theoretical basis, it is possible for developing countries to gain from liberalisation of international trade on the multilateral basis. The thesis, however, also indicates that it is possible to achieve certain improvements in the existing system to the benefit of the developing countries and leading to their greater and more equitable involvement in the international division of labour.

Osersová, Marta ; Slavíková, Lenka (advisor) ; Petrášek, František (referee)
This paper is aiming at an economic analysis of the waste transfer over the frontier. The transfer of the waste over the frontier is legally arranged by Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on shipments of waste and by Act 185/2001 on waste and amendement of some other acts, in the wording of later regulations. The purpose of waste transferring has got a key significance. The waste which is to be recovered can be imported in the Czech Republic and put on free secondary raw materials market providing the conditions stipulated in the law are performed. The waste which is to be disposed of is not allowed to be imported in the Czech Republic Nevertheless, there are economic bodies, both on the side of demand and on the side of supply, that are interested in this service. The existent demand which can be met by an adequate supply makes a space for the business. However, the business can't be realized legally because of a legal impediment. That is why we are facing a rise in the gray economy The paper has tried to describe the conditions and the acting of the business on secondary raw materials market and to point out the benefits brought in the involved persons and the society as a whole by this usiness. We also wanted to expose the loss of private and social benefits caused by the ban on dealing in disposing of waste and by acting of the gray economy.
