Krejčová, Nikola ; Wokoun, René (advisor) ; Toušek, Václav (referee) ; Viturka, Milan (referee)
Presented dissertation is focused on commercial suburbanization in terms of the Prague agglomeration specific aspects and assessment of some of its impacts on the affected locations. The aim is to identify local economic structures from the perspective of commercial suburbanization and assess their level of socio-economic significance in the suburban zone of Prague and their influence on the design of local medium-term priorities. This objective is further specified in terms of the five partial aims and five hypotheses. Monitored spatial units are analyzed at the level of municipalities, administrative districts of municipalities with extended powers and districts of Prague-East and Prague-West. The work represents the first comprehensive attempt to assess the extent of commercial suburbanization in the suburban area of Prague by using index methods. With the use of indexes, impacts of commercial suburbanization have been evaluated, especially the level of local action of companies and the formation of local markets in those local areas. The analysis shows that there is a greater degree of formation of local labor markets compared to rather negligible degree of formation of local markets of goods and services. Local economic structures continue to shape significantly in the regional centers of lower category rather than in the suburban zone of Prague. Following part of the thesis analyzes the socio-economic situation in the selected suburbanized municipality and reflection of key aspects of suburbanization in its medium-term development priorities and brings also a generalization of the findings. For the performed analysis, data from the author's own surveys and available statistical databases were used.

The thesis is a partial analysis of the efficiency of training programs in Havlíčkův Brod district during the years 2008-2011. Gross effects analysis showed that two thirds of the participants were able to find a job within 12 months after completion of the program. In comparison with other territorial units, training programs achieved same or even better results with lower average costs per participant. Sociodemografic characteristics of the participants did have impact on the value of gross effect. Lower gross effects were found for disadvantaged groups. In most cases the value of gross effect did not fell below 50 %. The highest gross effects were found for vocationally oriented training programs. Targeting analysis based on the value of targeting index showed that training programs targeting on disadvantaged groups were not only in Havlíčkův Brod district in many cases far from being satisfying. The thesis concludes that training programs seem to be efficient labor policy measure and recommends maintaining their range with higher preference of vocationally oriented courses in the future. Labor office officials should improve training programs targeting on disadvantaged groups and consider implementation of zonal counseling along with profiling of employed persons. Further records about unemployed could improve training program preparation process and could ease net effect analysis of the programs which overcomes gross effect analysis's limits discussed in the thesis.
