Reversed discrimination in the Community contexts
Macháčková, Gabriela ; Zemánek, Jiří (advisor) ; Král, Richard (referee)
Reverse Discrimination in the Community Law Context Gabriela Machačkova The final thesis discusses the issue of reverse discrimination, which arises when nationals/products of a Member State are disadvantaged because they are subject to a national regulatory measure, while foreign (EU) nationals/products are protected from that national measure by virtue of European Community (EC) law. It examines the question of scope of EC Law, specifically focusing on the extent to which nationals of a Member State who have never exercised their Community rights can claim their rights by applying the Treaty establishing the European Community. It addresses the question of extension of the scope of EC law to cover purely internal situations in which no inter-State element is present, and to which the fundamental freedoms (free movement of goods, services, persons and capital) do not apply. First, it reviews the development of European Court of Justice case-law on reverse discrimination and situations which can be regarded as purely internal. The time frame discussed in the thesis ranges from the late 1970s until the present. Reverse discrimination and purely internal situations are analysed in terms of the examples of the Court's jurisprudence. Secondly, as Union Citizenship has been introduced by the Maastricht Treaty,...

Prohorenco, Dmitrii ; Hrdlička, Milan (advisor) ; Holub, Jan (referee)
Czech language is inflective, that is one ending/suffix cumulates many categories. Many words (especially nouns, verbs and adjectives) have many forms. There are seven cases, fourteen basic types for nouns, five verb conjugation classes, ten parts of speech in czech. Verbs have categories of voice, aspect, person and tense. Nouns have gramatic categories of number, case and gender. There is a variety of irregularities, dual forms etc. in czech. Czech orthography is complicated when compared to croatian or finish, but is relatively simple when compared to french or english. One can say that czech orthography is phonological, but it takes into consideration also morphology and etymology. Czech is spoken primarily in Czech republic. There are some czech minorities in Australia, Argentina, Romania and USA. Czech is quite popular for foreigners to study, also it is spoken only by aproximately 12 mln. of people. The czech word order is different from the word order of english or french, that is relatively restrictive. The czech word order is on the other hand relatively free. Often all the permutations of words in a clause are possible. The concept of czech word order introduced Vilem Mathesius - the co-founder of Prague Linguistic Circle. Usually there exists the basic word order. Observing discourse patterns,...

Dostálová, Klára ; Flanderka, Pavel (referee) ; Labus, David (advisor)
In the thesis "Hirohito - the Fall of the Divine Myth" an analysis of Emperor Hirohito's New Year's Rescript is presented. The Rescript was made public on January l st 1946 and ended the myth of Emperor Hirohito's divinity. This event goes back to the postwar period in Japanese history when occupation authorities were in charge of democratization reforms. Unlike their process and consequences, the New Year's Rescript goes unnoticed by many although it also contributed to the rebirth of Japan into a modem state. The purpose of this thesis is to present facts leading to the birth of the political myth of the divine character of the Emperor and its usage in the wartime period as well as details conceming the making of the Rescript, comments from Japanese and foreign public and its influence on postwar democratization development in Japan. The story of the divine character of the Japanese Emperor dates back to ancient times. It was created out of necessity to "prove" the antiquity of Japan and her ruler when compared to Chinese culture. In the course of time the story became a powerful political myth used to consolidate the nation in the time of cultural and power encounter with Western countries aťter the Meiji Revolution and mainly as a means of explanation and justification for the expansionary policy set...

VIDRŠPERKOVÁ, Kristýna
The topic of this diploma thesis is ´Smoking in restaurant facilities in Pilsen city center´. Smoking in restaurant facilities harms not only their visitors but especially their employees. This group of citizens becomes passive smokers for the entire working time which may have negative health consequences. The main goal of this thesis was to map out the problem of smoking in restaurant facilities from their employee´s point of view. Three research questions have been determined towards fulfilling this goal. The research was implemented with the help of qualitative survey. Semi-structured in-depth interview was carried out with 13 respondents who had been chosen through the snowball sampling method. Information was evaluated through the open coding method and it has responded to the research questions. The first research question - What are the smoking habits of smoking restaurant facility employees? The research has proven that the amount of cigarettes smoked by the smoking restaurant facility employees has raised. The second research question - How do the employees of smoking restaurant facilities perceive the risk of passive smoking? Respondent´s answers have provn that they do not perceive passive smoking to be a risk factor which might harm their health. Only a minor part of respondents minds working in a smoking environment. The third research question was put this way: What is the attitude of employees in smoking restaurant facilities towards the new planned anti-smoking legislation? The research has proven that most respondents does not wish the acceptance of smoking prohibition in restaurant facilities. The reasons are concerns for their jobs, decrease in revenue, refusal of prohibition in general ort he fact that they themselves are smokers. Only a small number of respondent sis acutally concerned about their health and would welcome an amendment to the Act. A short intervention was carried out with the respondents within the research, which was supposed to inform the employees of restaurant facilities about the risks of passive smoking. The research has proven that employees of smoking restaurant facilities do not perceive the risk of passive smoking really. They are often exposed to tobacco smoke even in their leisure time. The most effective prevention may be ensured by politicians who would enforce a stricter legislation.

International Context of The Roma Minority Human Rights Protection in Slovakia
Lackovičová, Simona ; Zemanová, Štěpánka (advisor) ; Trávníčková, Zuzana (referee)
"The Roma Problem"is one of the most serious social problems in Slovakia. Prejudices, bad relationships between non-Roma majority and Roma minority, as well as racism, Roma rights violations are the most frequently cited issues, Slovakia is criticized for. The Government of the Slovak Republic is aware of all reasons for the criticism by international organizations or non-governmental organizations, and that is why "The Roma Problem" solution has been its priority for a long time. The Slovak Republic has already accepted lots of international commitments concerning protection of minority rights (including Roma rights) that is why I have decided to find out if Slovakia meets all its commitments. My goal is to analyse if international commitments and recommendations related to human rights affect real protection of minority rights in Slovakia. I would like to evaluate if the criticism by the international organizations is adequate and find some reasons for the criticism. Last but not least I would like to propose several recommendations based on the analyses of non- governmental organizations.

Šulc, Jiří ; Tichá, Milena (advisor) ; Havlík, Radomír (referee)
Analýza ekonomického postavení České republiky v rámci prostoru Evropské unie představuje především v České republice významnou oblast současného ekonomického výzkumu. Jedním z témat, kterými se současná ekonomie v uvedené oblasti zabývá, je problematika maastrichtských kritérií, jejichž vzorné plnění je nutné budoucímu přistoupení České republiky do Evropské měnové unie, které se předpokládá již v roce 2010. Cílem mé práce bylo především posouzení jednotlivých ekonomických ukazatelů České republiky, a to zejména ve vztahu původním patnácti členům Evropské unie a zároveň nynější evropské pětadvacítce. Srovnávání dosažených makroekonomických ukazatelů se vztahuje období let 2002 až 2005. Takto vymezené období umožňuje mimo jiné i srovnání makroekonomických ukazatelů v jednotlivých zemích před nejnovějším rozšířením Evropské unie a po něm.
