Real Estate and Territorial Development in the Context of Media
Erml, Tashi ; Wolák, Radim (advisor) ; Cebe, Jan (referee)
This thesis analyses the connections between real estate development, territorial development, and the media. The theoretical part presents fundamental topics from the field that are points of focus for the media and places them in a wider context with an emphasis on the housing situation in Prague. It also presents individual aspects that could have an influence on messages in the media, including the role of media ownership and the ideological beliefs of individual journalists. The work further discusses the presentation of developers in the media and their general reputations. The practical part of the paper employs three different research methods. The first is a content analysis focused on mainstream media, where we examine how they cover the topic over a specific period. The second includes a qualitative analysis that is based on interviews with a representative from the public sector, the private sector, and a non-profit. The third method is a quantitative analysis of a representative survey of Prague's inhabitants. In conclusion, the work presents recommendations how media could help cultivate the sector and improve communication between individual actors in real estate and territorial development.

The influence of planned project KIC Odpady (WtE) in Karviná city on residents' attitude and the strength of NIMBY effect
Ryba, Jakub ; Slavík, Jan (advisor) ; Osersová, Marta (referee)
Although there is, in general, a significant level of support of projects related to use of renewable resources, in fact realization of the specific projects usually meets with negative attitude of local residents. This negative attitude is often called as NIMBY ("not in my backyard") effect without further research of particular causes. Therefore, in the theoretical part of this diploma thesis NIMBY effect is defined, as well as various attitudes to its interpretation in literature and also the effect of various compensation on changing residents' attitude. In the practical part, this diploma thesis analyses residents' attitude, the existence and strength of NIMBY effect and the effect of compensation on changing residents attitude towards the specific planned project of building WtE in Karviná city (KIC). The results of this analyzation show, that NIMBY effect is detected, but at the same time it is not the main cause of the negative attitude of residents. Moreover, it has been found out, that the offered compensation have not any important influence on the change of residents' attitude.

Not In My Back Yard effect - attitude of local people to a planned construction of biogas plant
Novotná, Miroslava ; Melichar, Jan (advisor) ; Kaprová, Kateřina (referee)
The aim of the thesis is a research of the "Not In My Back Yard" effect, a negative attitude of local people to a construction of a new and potentially dangerous project in their vicinity. The thesis quantifies strength of the NIMBY effect in Městec Králové, a town where a biogas plant is planned to be constructed. The hypothesis is that the strength of the NIMBY effect is higher for the people who live in a higher proximity to a planned construction than for the people who do not.The hypothesis is evaluated based on data gained by an own survey conducted among residents of the town.Quantification of the NIMBY effect is more frequently a subject of research of foreign studies; empirical studies of biogas plants are rather rare. From this reason I have implemented a study of population of Městec Králové and tried to prove whether presence of the "Not In My Back Yard" effect can be indicated.
