The Development of Foreign Trade between the People's Republic of China and the United States of America since China's Accession to WTO
Kyselková, Ivana ; Sehnálková, Jana (advisor) ; Lepš, Jakub (referee)
The thesis "The Development of Foreign Trade between the People's Republic of China and the United States of America since China's Accession to the WTO" analyzes in detail the trade relations between the People's Republic of China and the United States of America. Since 1978, the trade between the PRC and the US in goods and services has been growing. One of the milestones in the mutual relationship, but also in the development of the Chinese economy, was China's accession to the WTO, which opened to the PRC a non-discriminatory access to world markets. Due to the increasing trade exchange between the PRC and the US, the bilateral relationship has gradually began to take on complexity and first disputes have appeared that had to be addressed in the WTO and through bilateral negotiations. The thesis analyzes trade disputes related in particular to the protection of intellectual property rights, health and safety standards of products, espionage and inadequate fulfilment of the WTO rules. One of the most frequently discussed topics in the American media and politics has been the subject of the growing trade deficit with China, for the growth of which some US politicians have blamed the currency undervaluation of the RMB maintained by the Chinese government. The thesis concludes that the problem of...

Intellectual Property Rights in the Theatre Practice Context
Hájková, Martina ; SRSTKA, Jiří (advisor) ; JAKL, Ladislav (referee)
This master thesis is focused on the intellectual property rights in the context of theatre practice. Its aim is to analyse the area of intellectual property rights and to show that intellectual property rights do not end with copyright, but it is just a beginning.
The results are answers to following research questions: What are intellectual property rights and what does this term include? How are intellectual property rights applicable within the theatre practice? What are the basic types of protection when these rights are violated in the theatre / by theatre?
The diploma thesis is composed of three main chapters, in which I progressively try to find answers to the above mentioned research questions. The first chapter is focused on the intellectual property rights and on their definition, including their terminological distinction from similar definitions, and analysis of that area. The second chapter introduces selected areas of intellectual property rights that are relevant for the theatre practice, and these selected areas are illustrated by examples. The third and last chapter outlines some of the basic mechanisms in the protection of intellectual property rights.
The conclusion summarizes the findings and on their basis it tries to answer the research questions on their basis.

Ochrana duševního vlastnictví ve zdravotnictví - přednosti vývoje vlastních léčiv se zaměřením na finanční stránku a aplikační proces.
Novák, Ivan ; Štěrbová, Ludmila (advisor)
Intellectual property (IP), is mostly associated with being immaterial. The term "property right" refers to a right or a set of rights one can enforce by means of benefits or use over a resource. Those rights may be transferable and may be treated as property or resources themselves. As from a historical point of view, different IP components developed independently on each other, this paper examines patents, utility models, registered designs, trademarks, and copyright individually. In order to answer the first research question "What means of protection are best suited for medical breakthroughs?", it adds a Supplementary Medical Certificate to a list of possible IPP tools. Even though this mean of protection is not recognized worldwide, it extends the regular protection period of a patent, and thus is commonly used. There are limitations to medical related IP protection as well, e.g. compulsory licensing which occurs when a government allows someone to produce a patented medication without the consent of the patent owner. IPP is also used to secure access to innovative and expensive medications in third world countries by tier pricing or licensing. The second research question "Under what circumstances is applying for a medical related trademark cost beneficial?" is answered through a case study. Its main goal is to extend on the theoretical part, and apply for a trademark with the Intellectual Property Office in Czech Republic (IPO CZ). In addition, the entire application process is thoroughly described and can serve as guideline for future applicants, not only with the IPO CZ as the application process with any national IP office is rather similar. In combination with a successful application, this is one of the most important findings.

Patent Functions and Impact on Economic Growth of Selected Industries in EU
Vojta, Michal ; Vokoun, Marek (advisor) ; Houdek, Petr (referee)
Currently, legislative patent protection is one of "the hottest topics" due to a billion-dollar lawsuit between Samsung and Apple. There is an academic discourse related to the importance of the patent protection regulations. Contemporary legal system impacts all fields of economics. A purpose of this study is to test hypothesis (that): "there should be an inhomogeneous patent-protection setting for particular industries". The IT industry, recognized for its low efficiency of regulation, is to be compared with the chemical industry, which, on contrary, is suggested to be stimulated by rigid regulation. This thesis brought a critical academic discussion leading to a quantitative regression analysis, which then supported the working hypothesis.
