Influence of international energy security on exploitation of unconventional sources of gas and oil in the Euro-Atlantic area
Havránková, Magdaléna ; Kučerová, Irah (advisor) ; Binhack, Petr (referee)
The diploma thesis "Influence of international energy security on shale gas mining in euro-atlantic area" deals with the possibility of developing commercial shale gas mining operations in Europe. Due to increase of gas consumption in Europe and without Europe's own sufficient production, its dependence on gas imports is growing, especially on the imports from Russian Federation. Although thanks to the development of LNG natural gas could become a global commodity in the future, the natural gas markets still maintain a regional character for the moment. This situation could be used for political objectives by some actors, such as Russia's temporary suspension of gas imports to Europe in 2006 and 2009. As a reaction to development of commercial unconventional shale gas production in USA, some of the EU members turned their attention to their own shale gas deposits in order to bolster their energy security. The stance of the individual countries differs however, with some of the countries imposing research moratoria (France, Bulgaria, Czech Republic), while some other countries expressing significant interest in the research of possible production on their territory (United Kingdom, Poland).

Český Těšín vs. polish Cieszyn 1920-1938, urbanism and architecture
Havránková, Magdaléna ; Pešek, Jiří (advisor) ; Vykoukal, Jiří (referee)
The B.A. thesis "Český Těšín vs. polský Cieszyn 1920-1938, urbanismus a architektura" ("Český Těšín vs. polish Cieszyn 1920-1938, urbanism and architecture") deals with changes of mentioned towns during the interwar period. This B.A. thesis is based on the form of original town Těšín that existed till 1920, when it was separated between two states and when two new towns appeared - Český Těšín and polish Cieszyn. The main part of this thesis represents an analysis of urbanistic and architectural aspects of both of them. Those changes are founded by the agreements that regularized the division of Těšín. Special emphasis is put on the analysis of the house building in Český Těšín that lost the majority of buildings necessary for town structure and town existence. Several questions should be answered in the end of this B.A. thesis. How the both towns changed during the interwar period, if the division of the town Těšín was settled successfully to satisfy both sides and if the town Český Těšín took the advantage of this occasion that offered the possibility to build a modern town in accordance to the interwar principles of urbanism and architecture.
