Within its legislation harmonization efforts European Commission has initiated a number of projects. Establishing the "High Level Group of Company Law Experts" by former eurocommissioner Frits Bolkestein on 4.

Analytical dispositions of visual ethnography
Durňak, Milan ; Šavelková, Lívia (advisor) ; Lupták Burzová, Petra (referee) ; Petráň, Tomáš (referee)
The objectives of this dissertation thesis could be divided into two primary analytical- interpretation areas. The first one would be trying to define the starting position of visual anthropology based on current trends in order to think about the active ingredients that discipline bases its knowledge and research. The image and sound penetrate our world to such an extent that it is necessary to reflect on the role that space plays in our life and how it is necessary to continue to work with these audiovisual principles in visual anthropology. At the same time, virtual and digital ethnography focuses our attention on changing the nature of our terrain, which needs to be taken into account immediately in our research. In some audio-visual projects I try to reflect different analytical-interpretative approaches and methods. In the project "Musicians" I ask questions how to process the theme of folk musicians from northeastern Slovakia, whose representations appear in a world full of openness, interconnection and sharing. In the experimental film project Watching Last Judgment I try to find ways to mediate sensory experience in a specific space connecting the sacred and profane places of the historic monastery in Voronet, Romania. In the last project I devote my analytical reasoning to this...

The birth of the myth of Dracula and his transformation, not only in the history of film
Klímová, Blanka ; PETRÁŇ, Tomáš (advisor) ; Brothánek, Adam (referee)
The starting point of my work will be a selection of films about Dracula.In this thesis, I would like to address the evolution in the representations of Dracula, from physical appearance to changes in the character, as well as the character development within the story.I want to look into this subject from a broad scope: Not only from the cinematographic context, but also from the cultural, historical and dramaturgical context. I'm interested in the evolution of the archetype of immortality in different cultural manifestations, from body embalming through sculpture, painting, photography to film.
Furthermore, the thesis will study the reassessment of its symbolism, the phenomena of film remaking and the meaning behind the necessity for repetition and reinterpretation of the myth.This work should also ascertain when the reality becomes myth and why.My sources of information will not be only the selected films, but specialized literature by authors such as M. Eliade, B. Fořt and E.Fromm.

Sites and Sights. Displacement in the Era of Visual Turn
Bagdasarova, Jaroslava ; Petráň, Tomáš (advisor) ; Czumalo, Vladimír (referee)
The study deals with the experience of displacement. It treats the subject through the photographic codes of Chukchi migrants and tourists who have one way or another transcended rather notional boundaries of cultural configurations.
Methodologically, the study combines visual anthropology, phenomenology of body and space, and surrealist approach to reality. Visuality is not seen as a mere tool of anthropological knowledge but a disposition for new epistemology.
The study reveals the interrelation between the transformation of Chukchi from tourists to migrants while gradually integrating themselves in a culturally new milieu of Saint Petersburg, and their way of seeing. It is then also the character of their snapshots which changes: photography of remarkable is replaced by the photography of observed and later on by the photography of an observer.
