The subject of this master's thesis is a description of the current legislation and application practice of selected punishments that represent the main alternatives to the imposition of unconditional prison sentences. These punishments are house arrest, community service, financial penalty, suspended sentence of imprisonment and suspended sentence of imprisonment with supervision. Since each of the abovementioned punishments could be the subject of a separate master thesis, this thesis does not aim to describe the subject matter in detail, but rather to present the individual institutes in their mutual context, to compare their characteristic features, purpose, conditions, specifics of their execution, as well as their use in judicial practice. The thesis consists of eight chapters, three of which are of a general nature, four deal with individual penalties and the last one is devoted to de lege ferenda proposals. The first chapter defines the very concept of criminal punishment and its purpose. A substantial part of the chapter is devoted to the historical development of penology theories regarding the purpose of the criminal punishment, with special focus on the transition from a retributive and punitive view of punishment to the concept of restorative justice.

House Arrest Sentence, Its Execution and CHouse Arrest Sentence, Its Execution and CHouse Arrest Sentence, Its Execution and CHouse Arrest Sentence, Its Execution and Controlontrolontrolontrol House arrest is one of the new types of sentences brought by the new penal code, which came into force in 2010. This thesis should give a brief view on the matter of imposing, executing and control of the house arrest sentence in the Czech Republic. House arrest is a type of sentence when offender serves his sentence at home instead of prison. He or she must stay at home at night from 22.00 till 5.00 or in time determined by court and all the weekends and public holidays. It means that the sentenced person is able to perform his job or studies and take care of his/her family. Other reason for enacting the house arrest sentence is that the convicted person is not affected by the prison environment, which makes his return to normal life difficult or even impossible. Very important is also the financial matter of the sentence, because compared to imprisonment, the house arrest should save more than 2/3 of expenses. A court may impose house arrest when the criminal offence is punishable by the prison sentence in maximum duration of 5 years.

Soukupová, Zlata ; Jelínek, Jiří (advisor) ; Herczeg, Jiří (referee)
The main aim of my thesis is to develop an analysis of current legislation governing alternative sentences, their possibilities and limits comparing it with other European Union countries. The thesis also examines the proposals de lege ferenda that could be used as a benchmark and a guide for future amendments to the current regulation. The notion of alternative sentencing became a global trend in the last two to three decades; this is the result of, inter alia, of continuous increase in the number of inmates, prison overcrowding and congestion of the judicial apparatus. Crescent crime and new forms of crime (especially economic) hit the Czech Republic as a former socialist country in the post-revolutionary times, very assertive. The results of studies and language experts warn against lax approach in the form of increased storage imprisonment and criminal policy tightening. There is also talk about crisis imprisonment. It is clear that an unconditional sentence of imprisonment has its benefits, such as preventive effect, in my opinion, however, the left especially serious crime offenders and recidivist behavior: "Nesit summum malum dolor, malum certe est." Instead of intramural prison environment with significant social and deviant subculture find great potential in alternative prison sentences, which are...
