Memes and the Theory of Universal Darwinism
Havlík, Vladimír
The article deals with the philosophical presuppositions and groundwork of the memetics. The central question is an analysis of Universal Darwinism as a common and universal evolutional principle or pattern that always springs in every environment when there're fulfilled required conditions. An evolutional process could be possibly described like an algorithmic process that faces to the rise of organized orderliness. Darwinism in this generally universal sense points to a distinctness survival of any kind self replicated code of information that has some influence over its probability of replication. The article stresses methodological importance of memetics as it makes possible to introspect variety of cultural development from a simple unification perspective.

Language Qualification of Economic Students on the Labour Market. Specific patterns of the Euro-region Nisa
Neumannová, Helena ; Vašutová, Jaroslava (advisor) ; Horák, Josef (referee) ; Andrášová, Hana (referee)
The author of this dissertation points out the parallels between language competence of graduates of the bachelor study and the master programmes at the Faculty of Economics of the Technical University in Liberec and their chances on the labour market. The dissertation highlights the significance of foreign language training for the economic graduates living in the euro-region, where the job offer is strongly influenced by foreign investors. The exclusive amount of hours in language teaching certainly increases the attraction of those subjects whose aim is to educate specialists having, on base of their competence of two world languages, better success prospects on the labour marked.

Determinanty úspěšnosti zahraničních studentů na českých vysokých školách
Do, Viet Anh ; Koblovský, Petr (advisor) ; Potužák, Pavel (referee)
This study analyzes determinants of students' success using various of perspectives (sociological, psychological, economic, cultural, organizational) in order to find out related influences. Our theoretical framework predominantly base on personal insights and experience as the author himself was able to spend a lot of time with immigrant students. This research was delimitated to baccalaureate students. The reason is that the linguistic, institutional, cultural and other effects are more distinct and might change enrollment conditions and requirements ex tunc. Our study data collection was empirically analyzed and result into varied findings. Basically, both studied immigrant students groups (Vietnamese and post-Soviet) are academically considerably weaker. This should be caused by their study limited barriers, which were theoretically assumed by an author. Therefore, this study is conceptualized to explore specific limitations.

Writing outside of logocentrism (Discourse, gender, text)
Matonoha, Jan ; Bílek, Petr (advisor) ; Heczková, Libuše (referee) ; Kalnická, Zdeňka (referee)
This thesis aims to examine the nature of the relationship between the kind of textual politics, here referred to as a "women's writing", and the dominant discursive practice of our culture, whose logic and functioning is best encapsulated in the Derridean term "phallogocentrism" which can be defined by variety of its characteristics (e.g. by the idea of a singular, fully controlable meaning, the adherence to the metaphysics of presence, simplisticly instrumental understanding of language, the claim for universal rationality, simplisticly homogeneus understaning of essentially complex and messy reality, ideology of a seemlessly homogeneus, fully controlable Self, anthropocentrism, the unacknowledged privileging of its own epistemic perspective etc.). "Women's writing", then, is here defined as that kind of writing which locates itself outside the domain and logic of a phallogocentric discourse, trying to challenge and undermine its hegemonic status. In this respect, "women's writing" is not delimited by the sex of an author, but by his/her gendered subjectivity, by his/her position within the discursive formation and his/her attitude to hegemonic language practices. Thus, besides the Czech writers Milada Součková, Věra Linhartová, Sylvie Richterová and Daniela Hodrová, the writing of a male author Bohumil...

Quality assessment of university information system
Žák, Adam ; Vencovský, Filip (advisor) ; Bruckner, Tomáš (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on a particular university information system currently used by University of Economics and Czech University of Life Sciences. Main goal was to evaluate system quality from the perspective of its common user -- university student. The evaluation was based on a detailed analysis of students' requirements on the system. These requirements were extracted through interviews and verified through a questionnaire survey. The thesis itself is divided into theoretical and practical part. In the theoretical part is at first determined what quality and information system is. Further is briefly described the international standardization of the quality and quality characteristics according to the selected ISO/IEC 25000 SQuaRE standard. Subsequently these characteristics are combined and used to compile questions for interviews. In the practical part, I'm initially setting questions for interviews using characteristics of quality to which I'm assigning scales according to my subjective estimate of importance and then interviewing individual students from both universities. Problem areas of system quality are determined from these interviews. System requirements are defined from these areas which were verified using questionnaire survey in which students had the opportunity to comment these requirements. The results of the survey are described both verbally and graphically, while the requirements verification is conducted and on its basis it's determined which requirements are significant and which are not. The last chapter deals with the solution of these requirements through systemic changes and recommendations. The main contribution of the thesis lies in the practical application of standards contained in the new series of standards ISO/IEC 25000 SQuaRE dealing with the quality of the software and the subsequent formulation of user requirements together with suggestions on how to satisfy these requirements.

Unintended impoliteness of Czech speakers in English. A Czech-English contrastive study
Vokurková, Iva ; Klégr, Aleš (advisor) ; Šaldová, Pavlína (referee)
In the world of today, cross-cultural interaction takes place every day at many levels of our lives, be it a study stay abroad, work, migration or simply a holiday. The world is getting more and more interconnected, the term "global village" is today more true than ever and with globalisation and European Union integration people from various parts of the world and with various cultural backgrounds are brought together and interact in one way or another. However, communication, although having a number of universally applicable features, is culturally (as well as socially, etc.) determined and therefore it is of great importance to the interactants from culturally different backgrounds to keep this fact in mind and be constantly aware that in different cultures people can be accustomed to achieving the same ends by using different linguistic (and other) means. The field that studies the differences as well as similarities between linguistic means and communicative patterns of different languages is called cross-cultural pragmatics. Its outputs and conclusions help to detect the pragmatic sources of miscommunications as well as bring a new perspective on the languages and cultures in question. This knowledge proves useful not only in foreign language classrooms but in all sorts of situations to all kinds of...
