Zágorová, Lucie ; Mlejnková, Lena (advisor) ; Netková, Jarmila (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the topic of smoking bans in public places. It is a controversial subject that sparks debate on whether smoking regulations are beneficial and if this trend should be replicated in other countries. The aim of this thesis is to characterize the current state of smoking in the world and the EU and to evaluate the attitude towards the introduction of smoking regulations in public spaces, with a focus on hospitality industries in different countries. This evaluation is determined from studies conducted by the EU and other global institutions involved with this matter. Thanks to the studies undertaken in different countries, the economic, health and social impacts of smoking bans have been analyzed. These findings will serve to predict the possible effect of an introduction of smoking bans in bars and restaurants in the Czech Republic.

European private international law - selected issues: conflict of laws regarding contractual obligations in the Rome Convention and Rome I Regulation
Vojta, Martin ; Pauknerová, Monika (advisor) ; Brodec, Jan (referee)
European Private International Law - Selected Issues: Law Applicable to Contractual Obligations in the Rome Convention and the Rome I Regulation Abstract: The aim of this thesis is to compare the two currently most important regulations concerning unification of the conflict of laws rules for contractual obligations in the EU - The Rome Convention and the Rome I Regulation. The former had since 1. July 2006 replaced the Czech Private International Law Act 1963 before being itself replaced by the latter, starting from 18. December 2009. With regard to non-retroactivity, both regulations will be in practice used alongside one another for a while, including the old Czech Private International Law Act 1963, but only in areas outside the material scope of both the Rome Convention and the Rome I Regulation. The thesis deals with major aspects of both regulations connected with choice of law, limitations thereof, and rules in the absence of a choice of law. Current conflict-of- laws rules rest on four main principles: 1) autonomy of the parties to choose the applicable law; 2) a unified system of conflict rules in the absence of a choice of law; 3) limitations for the protection of the weaker party or public policy; 4) ECJ's power of binding interpretations of both regulations to ensure uniform application.

An Effective System of Remuneration In the Public Sector
Picka, Jakub ; Kubátová, Květa (advisor) ; Izák, Vratislav (referee) ; Malý, Ivan (referee)
Expenditures on the salaries of public sector employees constitute a very important component of public expenditures, currently around CZK 200 billion annually in the Czech Republic. Adjusting the remuneration of employees in public administration (sector) is therefore an important option for increasing the efficiency of use of public funds. The assessment of the current system of public sector employee remuneration and a proposal for some specific changes to be made to it is the focus of this dissertation. The primary aim of my dissertation is to analyze the system of remuneration of employees of public and private sectors, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Within the primary target there is also a decomposition analysis, which indicates whether the employees are discriminated against in any of the sectors. The secondary objective is to make recommendations for the system of remunerating public sector employees of the in order to increase its efficiency in terms of public spending while maintaining its incentive function. The work is divided into five chapters. The first chapter, entitled "Theoretical Foundations," provides an overview of the relevant literature, the fundamental basis in economic theory, and issues of the Mincer wage equation, which is then later used as the basis for regression and decomposition analyses, and mainly describes in detail the decomposition method that is used to explain the difference in the salary level in the private and the public sector. These decomposition methods represent, together with quantile regression, the main tool used to meet the objectives of this work. The second chapter, entitled "The Remuneration of Public Sector Employees," describes the structure of the remuneration of employees of the public sector. The data shows that the current system produces results in the form of salaries that do not correspond to the market. The third chapter, called "Regression Model," builds on the analysis performed on data from QSAE, which was discussed in the second part of the previous chapter, and its purpose is to prepare the documents for verification and deepen their conclusions. The fourth chapter, called "Regression and Decomposition Analysis," is based on the regression model assembled in the previous chapter, and describes the results of the regression decomposition analysis performed on the described sample data. This chapter verifies the hypotheses set out in the introduction and answers research questions. The fifth and final chapter, entitled "Interpretation of the Results and Recommendations," focuses on the interpretation of the results, the proposed regulation of remuneration, and recommendations for further research. The main finding of this work is that the system of remuneration of public sector workers is set so that, while the overall average brings quite comparable results in terms of the salary as the entire labor market, it is not throughout the distribution. The performed regression analysis showed that both the public and private sectors evaluate the same things differently (different values of the regression coefficients of variables), and both at the average and along the entire distribution. We can say that the mechanism of the remuneration of employees of the public sector is different from that of the market. This fact is confirmed by the significantly higher coefficient of determination of the regression model of the public sector. Regarding possible discrimination in wages, the analysis showed that employees in the public sector may in contrary to the preposition of positive discrimination be positively discriminated against only up to approximately fifteenth percentile. From fifteenth percentile they are discriminated against negatively. This was confirmed by the decomposition analysis performed on the average salaries, which indicates that public sector employees are, at this level, negatively discriminated against (if the public sector employees have the same regression coefficients as private sector employees, their earnings increase). Finally, this conclusion is confirmed by the dummy variable, which represents belonging to the private sector when the value of its corresponding regression coefficients, in quantile regression analysis along the distribution, evolves from negative to positive and is significantly increasing. The thesis also shows how the system of remunerating public sector employees can be adjusted to reward employees in a way that is comparable with the market.

Comparation of the EU and US approach towards mergers and acquisitions
Bartošová, Monika ; Kříž, Radim (advisor) ; Hásová, Jiřina (referee)
This study aims to compare the EU and US approach towards mergers and acquisitions, both from a theoretical point of view (the historical development and regulation) and the practical one(comparing certain cases), identify their similarities and differences, explain it and evaluate. To achieve the goal, the method of comparison was used (especially control procedures and assessing relevant markets). It was also assisted by case studies (specific decisions of the competition authorities), thus that the merger of GE / Honeywell and acquisitions, Oracle / Sun Microsystems. The work is divided into four chapters. The first chapter approaches the topic in terms of their development and legislation. The next two chapters introduce the merger control in both systems. The last chapter deals with cooperation between the competition authorities of the EU and the US. Chapter also compares the specific cases in which both teams have decided differently.
