Cause, consideration and the purpose of contract law
Šebeková, Veronika ; Kühn, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Beran, Karel (referee)
of the Master thesis This Master thesis deals with an institute of the Czech contract law - kauza (causa). The example of kauza (and consideration) illustrate the tendency of legal systems to keep institutes once they have been created, even at the cost of inconsistent changes in their definition, purpose or function. The original meaning of the institutes is continuously blurred which makes it difficult to assess whether their use in the current legal system is substantiated. The main purpose of the thesis is to contribute to a clarification of the real function of kauza in the Czech contract law. Unlike in foreign legal publications, kauza is rather marginalized in Czech legal writings. Authors that deal with the problems of kauza (at least to some extend) often come to mutually exclusive/ inconsistent conclusions. The classical doctrine of causa makes little sense in the consensual concept of contract that seems to be favored in the Czech legal theory. Namely, the requirement of kauza appears to be additional to a requirement of consensus of the parties. Such theoretical discrepancy may be one of the reasons why the meaning of kauza in the Czech law is still unclear. Contract theories facilitate a deeper understanding of contracts, contract law and its particular institutes. However, the Czech...

Comparison of contract law institutes - consideration and cause
Šebeková, Veronika ; Boháček, Martin (advisor) ; Švarc, Zbyněk (referee)
This master thesis focuses on a comparison of two contract law institutes -- consideration and cause. While the former is an Anglo-American legal concept, the later is of civil law origin. The goals of this comparative study are as follows: 1. to analyze consideration and cause with the emphasis on the problematic aspects; 2. to compare the institutes with regard to their function in contracts formation; 3. to assess their reasonableness and consider alternative solutions which could better comply with the requirements of modern contract law. The structure of the paper corresponds to the above-mentioned aims.

Vývoj kurzu USD/EUR od vzniku společné měny po současnost
Šebeková, Veronika ; Taušer, Josef (advisor) ; Cibulková, Iveta (referee)
Pozornosť práce je zameraná na deskripciu a analýzu vývoja menového kurzu USD/EUR (EUR/USD) v období od januára 1999 do marca 2007. Prognózovanie kurzov presahuje vymedzený rámec tejto práce. Hlavným nástrojom skúmania je grafická analýza vývoja fundamentálnych determinantov nominálneho kurzu ? mier inflácie, peňažných zásob, úrokových sadzieb, rastu HDP, schodkov verejných rozpočtov a deficitov bežného účtu. Vývoj kurzu je analyzovaný taktiež v kontexte spoločenských, politických a ekonomických udalostí, ku ktorým došlo v sledovanom čase v eurozóne a Spojených štátoch. Určitý priestor je venovaný i problematike rovnovážnych dlhodobých menových kurzov. Práca oboznamuje jednak s najčastejšími teoretickým konštrukciami rovnovážnych hladín, jednak predkladá niekoľko možných rovnovážnych úrovní kurzu EUR/USD.
