The Most Holy Trinity as the Foundation of the Identity of Created Persons
HANKE JAROŠOVÁ, Světla
According to Scripture God created human beings "in our image, after our likeness". The likeness used to be conceived in terms of the rational nature human beings possess. Modern thought has come to conceive of the likeness rather in terms of being person, who receives her identity in relationships from others and at the same time mediates the others´ identity to them. The author presents the historical development of the concept of person as well as selected contemporary approaches, which she evaluates in light of the personal life of the Triune God as it is witnessed in Scripture and incessantly communicated in the liturgy of the church. She also presents ways of conceiving of created personhood she has attained in this light. Created persons are created in order to receive divine self-communication and to be able to participate in it, which they can in dependence on the one, who is the true revelator of God, as participation in his revelatory activity. By accepting their dependence, they become capable of acting freely through themselves and fulfill the task entrusted to them by creation.

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.

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.

Multi-tier system of distribution of audiovisual content
Pulda, Michal ; Donát, Jiří (advisor) ; Mildeová, Stanislava (referee)
This paper analyzes and critically evaluates present music and video market functioning with emphasis to the sales of electronic format of this content which is preferred by current customers. It analyzes the widespread trend of content sharing via the Internet and specifies reasons why the trend is happening. It defines cases of behavior that are justifiable in the eyes of consumers and therefore legitimate (i.e. creation of backups, downloading and sharing legally unavailable content, downloading for personal use, etc.) and elements that reduce value of the legally distributed content for the customer (copy protection mechanisms or current licensing system). Furthermore, it analyzes new economic approaches that enable the utilization potential of the Internet (i.e. the Long Tail Theory) or of potential customers (Crowdsourcing, Word of Mouth, Gamification). The paper analyzes the functioning new services that use the Internet as a platform for their operation and offer users the experience they want. Proposal for this new system of audiovisual content distribution is proposed based on a synthesis of findings from the operation of these services, new theoretical approaches and author's own contribution. This new system rejects the idea of selling the content as goods (per items) and adopts an approach of access to the whole catalogue of content for a flat monthly fee. This newly born service has several tiers that differ qualitatively among themselves, also in terms of added value for users and finally in the price at which the layers are available. This system is very acceptable to customers as well as being an interesting long-term alternative to the current system for operators of the new system and copyright holders.
