Piercing the Corporate Veil - Selected Issues in International Comparison
Kostohryz, Milan
Milan Kostohryz Piercing the Corporate Veil - Selected Issues in International Comparison Abstract The main purpose of the thesis is to give recommendation for possible application of the piercing doctrine in the Czech Republic. Secondary purposes are (i) analysis of effects caused by disregarding the principles of limited liability and separate legal personality because of piercing and (ii) detailed description of approaches to the piercing issue in selected legal systems (USA, UK and Germany). The thesis starts with some terminological issues; it introduces the possible Czech equivalents of the notion "piercing the corporate veil" and explains that it can have slightly different meaning depending on the individual author. The differences stem especially from the questions whether piercing negates only the principle of limited liability or also the principle of separate personality; whether so called inner piercing (Innenhaftung) shall be part of the doctrine and whether the piercing doctrine shall be regarded as product of case-law only. Also some special forms of piercing (reverse piercing, lateral piercing and insider piercing) are introduced. The third chapter analyses the relationship between the piercing doctrine and the principles of limited liability and separate legal personality. In particular it...

Subcultures in documentary photography: Modern primitivism (practical bachelor theisis)
Součková, Barbora ; Géla, František (advisor) ; Štefaniková, Sandra (referee)
This practical bachelor's thesis focuses on portraying the subculture of modern primitivism and body modifications in documentary photography. Body modifications can be defined as a part of body art disrupting - mostly irreversibly - the integrity of human skin. The philosophy of modern primitivism is based on the ritual and spiritual conception of body interventions and seeks deeper meanings in them. Therefore, it is closely related to body modifications. Roots of this movement in the Czech Republic go back to Prague, 2004, when a tattoo and piercing studio Hell has been founded. Even now, the studio has a significant impact on the Czech community around body modifications. The thesis aims to determine the genre of documentary and reportage photography. Furthermore, it defines the subculture and provides examples of related Czech documentary and journalistic photography. The main, practical part of the thesis is a photo book containing a set of documentary and reportage photographs presenting the Czech subculture and its selected members.
