Housing Stock Analysis in the Regions of the Czech Republic
Bendžíková, Iva ; Hlaváček, Michal (advisor) ; Klinger, Tomáš (referee)
Housing capacity forms an important part of life of every society, and therefore it is important and interesting to examine this phenomenon more closely. The most comprehensive amount of data on this phenomenon provides Population and Housing Census conducted regularly by the Czech Statistical Office. The main objective of this work, using these and many other available sources, that are not only from the Czech Statistical Office, is a detailed analysis of the housing and residential capacity of the Czech Republic, that enable a global view on the issue. First, I focused on financing of the housing needs as a key factor for further development of the housing capacity. Then I looked at individual parameters, which characterized apartments and houses and circumstances that affect their appearance. Subsequently I examined the factors that influence the number of dwellings completed using real quarterly data from the Czech environment from the period 2000-2015. Regression analysis demonstrated the expected effect of variables such as average gross monthly wages and gross domestic product. But surprisingly, net migration and natural increase of population became a significant variable, which confirmed the influence of socioeconomic factors in the development and expansion of the housing capacity.

This paper provides a unique disaggregated view of selected items of regional budgets that have not been investigated in connection with the existence of political-budget cycles in existing empirical research yet. The econometric analysis of panel data collected from thirteen regions (due to its specific nature Prague is not considered) over the period 2001-2016 unambiguously confirmed the existence of political-budget cycles at the regional level in the Czech Republic, that is characterized by a significant increase in total current and capital expenditures in the pre- electoral and the electoral years in comparison with the non-electoral years. In accordance with the further hypothesis of the thesis, we observe the significant increase especially in groups of spending that are attractive and easily recognizable to voters. These include for example expenditures on health, culture or environmental protection. Moreover, it has been proven, that some...
