E-procurement in the Member States of the European Union
Nop, Michal ; Tichý, Luboš (advisor) ; Král, Richard (referee)
E-procurement in the Member States of the European Union This paper aims to systemise data of e-procurement with regard to the legal rules in the Member States of the Eumpean Union, eSpecially in the Czech Republic. The objective of this thesis is to provide a comparison of the situation in public procurement across and within the Member States. In the EU, there were adopted new Procurement Directives, 2004/ l 7/EC and 2004/18/EC, in April 2004. Member States were required to implement the new legal framework by 31 January 2006, but slippages were not excluded. Early adoption of the new e-procurement provisions is essential to avoid barriers to and distortion of competition. The Directives provide a coherent framework for conducting procurement electronically in an Open, transparent and non-discriminatory way, establish rules for tendering electronically and fix the conditions for modern purchasing techniques based on electronic means of communication. The implementation of Directives' provisions on a dynamic purchasing system and e-auctions is optional. However, most of the Member States have introduced these procurement procedures. If not all Member States implemented electronic procedures, the differences between them could cause problems. Such a situation is not favourable for the deveIOpment of the...

1 Abstract Distinction between the Civil Law and Anglo-Saxon Systems of Legal Culture and a Tendency towards their Convergence In the presented dissertation, it is assessed whether it is still relevant to consider the Anglo- Saxon and civil law types of legal culture as two specific, different socio-cultural systems. Therefore, the paper is focused on the comparison of the Anglo-Saxon and civil law types of legal cultures. In the work, it is hypothesized that in the Anglo-Saxon and civil law cultures, there is a long-term tendency to converge. The work seeks to find key factors that affect the relationship between the observed legal cultures. The fundamental method of this paper is the comparative method in its sociological form. Typically, the multilateral comparative approach is employed. The historical comparison also has its place herein. The sociological conception is connected with the consideration of dominant currents of thought in both types of legal culture. The different way of writing court decisions or different methods of interpreting legal regulations are also reflected. The dissertation examines the issue of scientific comparison and its possibilities, the essence of legal cultures, methodological approach and historical changes in the civil law and Anglo-Saxon types of legal culture. The...

Simmel's work reflection in Bauman's writings
Nop, Michal ; Petrusek, Miloslav (advisor) ; Balon, Jan (referee)
Reflection of Sim m el's work in Baum an's writings This paper aims to compare the writings of Georg Simmel with the work of Zygmunt Bauman. It is checked up in which substantial areas, as well as sociological methods, Zygmunt Bauman has followed Georg Simmel. In the first chapter there is described the objective and methods of this thesis. In this paper an application of comparative method prevails. The examined phenomenon is decomposed into elementary components that are subsequently compared. Bauman appreciates Simmel especially for his way of writing; however, he follows him also in substantial matters. The use of sociological essay is typical of works of both authors. Both speak about intersubjectivity, not about objectivity. This is typical of post-modem authors. Simmel and Bauman use a concept of "social type" for their explanations. Both explain phenomena with the aid of ambivalence. Simmel and Bauman are both focused on the life in a metropolis. They delineate a way of life there, and try to show alienating consequences for a human being. In the second chapter of this paper I try to trace substantial forces that could influence a way of work of both authors, and furthermore, I try to discover similarities and differences. Both are Jews; for this reason they had often problems in their life...
