Financing of political parties and movements: Monitoring of financing of the election campaigns for the regional council elections 2016
Malinová, Soňa ; Vymětal, Petr (advisor) ; Kučera, František (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on the topic of financing of political parties and political movements in the Czech Republic, which is still neglected and insufficiently regulated in our country. In the practical part, the focus is on the financing and monitoring of the election campaigns for the regional council elections 2016. It primarily deals with the evaluation of the transparency of candidates and their campaigns. The election campaigns of the political movement ANO 2011 and the political party ČSSD are analyzed in detail in this thesis with an emphasis on the analysis of transparent accounts of the two candidates. The mandatory establishment of transparent accounts and expenditure ceilings for campaigns, in force since January 2017, are a very positive move towards a transparent political environment. Combined with control mechanisms and a system of sanctions, they form the basis for building a more transparent Czech political scene and they are the cause for further reforms and widening of rules in the system of political party and movement financing in the Czech Republic.

Policy capacities of Czech political parties in the field of financing of political parties
Mottl, Václav ; Novotný, Vilém (advisor) ; Klimešová, Magdalena (referee)
Political parties are fundamental to the functioning of a democratic state. Through them all citizens of the country are being influenced. To work properly, however, the political parties need to gather various sources. Currently, the main source are financial contributions, namely from the state but also from private entities. Financing of political parties, in the form in which it is now, became due to various political corruption scandals subject of discussion. Over time, there has been a transformation of the social climate and calls for changes of the existing rules for financing of political parties have appeared. This bachelor thesis deals with the expert capacities of political parties focusing on their financing. Specifically, expert capacities of Czech political parties ČSSD, Strana Zelených and ANO 2011 are being examined. Nevertheless, the project Rekonstrukce státu is also included, as it is one of the actors influencing this field. This paper deals with how propositions about the issue of financing are being developped within political parties. Who influences shaping those propositions? And how this issue has historically developped?

Political Reform in Russia under the Rule of Vladimir Putin: Law on Political Parties and its Influence on Political Opposition
Hosenseidlová, Petra ; Šír, Jan (advisor) ; Kubát, Michal (referee)
The thesis Political Reform in Russia under the Rule of Vladimir Putin:Law on Political Parties and its Influence on Political Opposition deals with the impact of the aforesaid law on Russia's opposition parties during Putin's presidency, i. e. in the period between enacting this law in 2001 and 2008. It focuses on then three main opposition parties, namely Communist Party of the Russian Federation, Union of Right Forces and Yabloko. It analyzes the impact of the aforesaid law on the opposition parties in the following three areas of activity: registration; financing; and participation in the political process as exemplified through the elections for the State Duma in 2003. The analysis allows us to conclude that the impact of the aforesaid law was lower than conventionally believed. That said, however, does not mean that the ruling regime would not seek to severely curtail the parties standing in opposition to President Putin. It did so using predominantly other methods, such as dirty election campaigns, targeted crackdown on the opposition's key sponsor, and administrative interference with the election process.

Financing of political parties and party patronage in Czech Republic
Novotný, Petr ; Dvořáková, Vladimíra (advisor) ; Němec, Jan (referee)
This thesis proceeds with my bachelor's thesis Financing of Political Parties in Czech Republic. Party patronage is additional field of study of how political parties work in real life. We can analyze different factors while studying party patronage such as the overlap or intrusion of political parties in state administration, the way how patronage is practised and it's criteria, similarly to studying the way how party financing influences for example electoral outcomes. I will point out main theoretical approach to this relatively new field of studies and its methological foundations. I will devote a seprate chapter to a non-existing Law on Public Service and see whether this should be enacted or not.
