Gupta, Pramod Kumar ; Šiška, Jan (advisor) ; Strnadová, Iva (referee)
World of education for disable children is constantly changing. Special schools have to change according to the demand of its clients or the environmental factors.

Historical interpretations of Lithuanian language system
Vaněk, Michal ; Blažek, Vladimír (referee) ; Hoskovec, Tomáš (advisor)
The aim of the thesis is to analyze and compare two historical interpreta-tions of Lithuanian (and Baltic) language system. The first one is Verglei-chende Grammatik der baltischen Sprachen (Oslo - Bergen - Tromsö 1966) by Indo-European, Baltic and Slavic philologist Christian Schweigaard Stang, the other one is Lietuvi kalbos istorin gramatika (Vilnius 1968) by Baltic phi-lologist Jonas Kazlauskas. Both books are of major importance for the Baltic studies. Stang gives a comprehensive compendium of the latest knowledge on the history of Baltic languages in perspective of young-grammarian tradition of Indo-European historical-comparative linguistics. He demonstrates the In-do-European correspondences in Baltic languages and describes the evolution of the Baltic languages in context of the evolution of Indo-European lan-guages (particular importance is given to ancient Indo-European languages, especially Ancient Greek and Ancient Indian) which can lead to some misin-terpretations. Kazlauskas's book is based on methods of modern phonology and struc-tural-functional approach to language. Kazlauskas rather concentrates, in con-trast to Stang, on partial evolutionary processes in Lithuanian itself using me-thod of internal reconstruction and analyzing voluminous amount of dialectal data.

The Indian world in the novels by Alcides Arguedas and Ciro Alegría
Fauová, Veronika ; Vydrová, Hedvika (referee) ; Housková, Anna (advisor)
In my diplom work I tried to describe two indigenist novels: Bronze race by Alcides Arguedas and Broad and alien is the world by Ciro Alegría. The work is divided in three principal parts: The indigenous people like literary topic in the Andean region, The indigenism like resource of the indigenist novel, Bronze race and Broad and alien is the world. The first part is dedicated to the evolution of the Indian as litarary personage: From the romantic and idealized perspective, through the indianist novel up to the indigenist novel. Turning point between these types of novel was the novel Birds without a nest of the Peruvian writer, Clorinda Matto de Turner. In the second part I described the most important historical events that preceded the evolution of the indigenist novel. In the third part of my diplom work I devote myself to the analysis of two indigenist novels: Bronze race and Broad and alien is the world. I centered in the concept of the space and its relation with the composition, in the importance of the nature and tried to find how both authors see the indigenous world, if it is from the social or cultural point of view and which are their solutions of the problem.

Particularities of diplomatic and business protocol of Spain
Krejčová, Petra ; Gullová, Soňa (advisor) ; Laschoberová, Libuše (referee)
Spain - land of sun and fire, country of dance and singing, country of passion and joy of life, land of horses and bullfighting, land of wine and celebration or country of epic heroes and battles. So, or otherwise, imagine many foreigners this State located on the Iberian Peninsula and representing also the gateway to Latin America. Kingdom of Spain and its culture and traditions have undergone a long evolution and many changes over the centuries and shows the effects of influence not only of European but also Arabian and Indian cultures. These factors significantly affect the Spanish way of trading, the treatment of partners, negotiation or diplomatic and business relations. Although Spain is a part of Europe and since 1986 also a member of the European Union, it still has its specific differences from other European states, which must be taken into account when establishing and maintaining any relationship, whether of business, diplomatic or cultural nature. The goal of my work is, with the help of Spanish literature authors, to characterize the business and diplomatic protocol of Spain and to highlight the most significant differences related to cultural and historical facts. Areas of interest are, for example, the style and methods of negotiation, business etiquette, business and social events, the specificities of royal protocol and other factors of social life, which blend with the world of business and diplomacy. The differences are more pronounced in the area of business, as diplomatic protocol and its rules are governed by international treaties, particularly the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations from 1961 and the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations from 1963, and the differences between countries are less apparent or none. In Spain, this issue is given much attention and many professional publications have come out on similar issues. Professional and informal social etiquette have their strong and respected position here, and with the increasing importance and formality of contacts, their importance is increasing as well. A model and image of the perfect knight of past times has outlasted in a modified form to this day. The role of family and differences in status and roles of men and women can not be ignored. In our country, there are these issues an object of much less interest and often then occurs the failure of negotiations or the failure of business contacts only because of ignorance and misunderstanding. My aim is therefore also to provide a better view of the Spanish country and culture from the perspective of a potential trading partner and enable an easier understanding of the Spanish way of life, thinking and the resulting negotiations. The potential of the country for our manufacturers and retailers is big and successful penetration of the Spanish market may also be the first step into the business waters of Latin America.

India: poverty as an obstacle to further development
Lauberová, Petra ; Steinmetzová, Dana (advisor) ; Pavlík, Petr (referee)
The bachelor thesis examines a relationship between the growth of Indian economy, reducing of poverty in the country and the need to raise the capacity and quality of the local educational system. The Republic of India currently occupies second position in the ranking of the fastest growing economies in the world. Its economic success is largely controlled by the output of the tertiary sector, which is difficult for a qualified workforce. Unfortunately, finding qualified workers in India to fill positions that are in demand is very challenging. The demand for education grows only with raising of the incomes of the population and therefore poverty becomes an obstacle to further development in the country. The first chapter of the thesis defines the concept of poverty in general, provides different ways how to measure it and represents some global concepts and strategies for combating it. The second chapter describes the evolution of the Indian economy since independence to the present and focuses on areas which have caused its upsurge. The chapter also examines how current crisis has influenced these areas and provides some characteristics and facts about poverty in India. The final chapter evaluates the Indian educational system, pointing out its weaknesses and outlines the solutions that would enable its access to the wider sections of the population and improvement of its quality.
