The Economic Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Chinese Cities: What Can We Learn from the SARS Pandemic?
Zhang, Yueyue ; Šťastná, Lenka (advisor) ; Semerák, Vilém (referee)
Using the quarterly and monthly data of ten representative cities in China from December 2000 to June 2021, this thesis describes the impact of COVID-19 on the urban economy, import and export, and quantifies the impact degree by panel data regression analysis. To explore the relationship between the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and urban categories, we distinguished different types of cities. The results show that COVID-19 has the most profound impact on coastal towns, followed by megacities. It is mainly due to the excessive dependence of coastal towns on import and export trade. We also understand the lagging effect of the pandemic on the economy by adding dummy variables representing the SARS pandemic. Facts have proved that while formulating related policies, the government has to consider the lagging effects of the impact of the pandemic on the economy.

The Relationship Between Exports and Economic Growth In Ghana: A Five Year Gap Comparison
Kyei-Baffour, Rosca
Abstract Kyei-Baffour, Rosca. The Relationship Between Exports And Economic Growth in Ghana: A Five Year Gap Comparison. Diploma thesis. Brno: Mendel University, 2019. This master thesis seeks to analyze the relationship that exists between Exports and economic growth in Ghana over a fifteen (15) year period from 1991 through to 2017. This duration defines the transition and implementation of export-oriented policies for the economy of Ghana. Before this study, inspiration is taken from Enu et al., 2013 who have examined the challenges and opportunities of the exports sector in Ghana and this study seeks to contribute to the already existing studies conducted in this area. More so, the study investigates the differing temporal effects of exports to the economy of Ghana. An Ordinary Least Square (OLS) estimation technique was adopted for the study. Also, five-year moving averages were computed and estimated to examine the five-year gap effect of exports on economic growth. Specifically, the Export-Led Growth (ELG) hypothesis and the framework developed by Fosu in 1990 was used to aid in the analysis. The results indicated that there is a positive effect of exports on economic growth and it was concluded that Export-Led Growth Strategy remains valid for Ghana during the study period. Recommendations such as encouraging consumption of locally produced commodities were suggested.

Zhodnocení tržního potenciálu agrokomodity sója
Dosedlová, Amálie
Bachelor thesis consists of the characteristics of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill.]. Emphasis of this work is on agronomical conditions suitable for soybean cultivation, agricultural technology requirements, and common opportunities and risks associated with this commodity. List of cultivars suitable for cultivation in the Czech Republic is given here as well. Compiled data we can get a composition of varieties exported and imported commodities (soybeans, soya cake, soybean oil) from selected states of EU. Export from Czech Republic is insignificant and import span about 60 % supply of do-mestic market. In 2017 Soya was cultivated on 15K ha and the average production was 2-2,5 t/ha in Czech Republic. Expenditures from specific farm in Kyjov area was almost constant (20K CZK). Profitability was 51 % in 2016, next year formed 26 %. In 2018 was cultivating still viable, but profitability decreased to 15 %. The average price of soybeans was 7 200–9 200 CZK/t. The results show, that soybean is attractive crop, which can contribute its advantages to enhance of crop rotation.

Freshwater mussels (Unionidae) in CITES
HNÍDKOVÁ, Lucie
This work assesses the international trade in the Unionidae species from 1987 to 2015. The species of the Unionidae family are listed in the CITES International Convention. Most of them (26 species from 12 genera) are included in Appendix I of CITES, only three species (Cyprogenia aberti, Pleurobema clava and Epioblasma torulosa rangiana) are listed in Annex II. They are mainly US endemic, or USA and Canada. Most of them occur only in one or two rivers, often only in a certain section of the river. These species are host specific. Some of them are bound to only one genus or species of fish. From a trading point of view, Unionidae were traded in the following forms: shells, carved shells, derivatives, live individuals and specimens. The species Dromus dromas, Pleurobema clava, Cyprogenia aberti and Conradilla caelata were traded the most. The most common was the trade in the shells of individuals whose origin dates from before the inclusion of the species Unionidae to CITES for commercial purposes. These individuals were mostly of an unknown provenance and if the country of origin was stated, it was United States of America. The places, from which they were exported most were Hongong and the Philippines. The most frequent place of import were the US.
