How will we live together?
Wintner, Roman ; Kocián, Václav (referee) ; Kratochvíl, Jan (advisor)
In my thesis How We Will Live Together I deal with the phenomenon of participatory housing. The first phase of the thesis is a research in which I analyse types of community housing from abroad, I examine the history of collective housing in the Czech Republic. I focus on different possibilities of participation within housing, which I demonstrate with real examples. I try to point out the still insufficient support of similarly oriented projects that could have a positive impact on the development of the housing issue in the country. In the second phase of the thesis, I develop a characterization of a fictive group of people, a community, on which I try to demonstrate the functioning and feasibility of a participatory housing project and the bottom-up model. The result is an architectural design on the site of the former sugar factory in Šlapanice, taking into account the interests and needs of the site and the community. It is a kind of reflection pointing out the possibilities and variability of the implementation of such a project in specific Czech conditions. I am basing my ideas on a foreign model, which I am trying to transfer to the territory of a more relaxed development. An important consideration in the work is given to the questions of the future in connection with housing. In the project I am working with the design of 5 different buildings, one of which also serves as a common centre for the community. The buildings are characterised by different approaches to design according to the individuality of the group of owners. I bring further considerations of possible functioning through the different zoning of the plots without strict subdivision and the different approach to the use of cars. As a paradoxical response of future housing, I bring a return to tradition and customs similar to the village environment. Not only in connection with cultivation, poultry farming, escape from hecticness, but especially with an orientation towards real values and healthy relationships, which can be mediated precisely by participatory housing.

Development of theological discourse at Dorothea Sölle
BALI, Kateřina
The presented work deals with the theological reflection of the ideas of Protestant, feminist theologian Dorothee Sölle, related to her work Mysticism and Resistance. The aim of this work is to reflect on the concepts of mysticism and resistance, while viewing mysticism and resistance in direct relation to Sölle's position within feminist liberation theology, i.e. attempting to place ideas about mysticism and resistance in the framework of her early theological thinking. With regard to Sölle's position within feminist theology, the work also deals with the question of how mysticism and resistance take on the future form of feminist liberation theology. The focus of this work, through the hermeneutic method, is mainly the reflection of the relationship between action and contemplation, standing at the core of mysticism and resistance. Against the background of Zimmerling's criticism of mysticism and resistance, primarily from the politicization of mysticism, the work tries to reflect on the relationship between mysticism and resistance, which is a relationship of radical correlation. Zimmerling's criticism seems justified in view of the focus on relationships within creation and the related transformation of man, instead of the relationship with God. In a certain respect, mysticism as resistance takes on the form of political mysticism, more precisely the mysticism of liberation. The reflection of mysticism as resistance raises questions about the "need" of the "contemplative dimension", which as a result can appear secondary. The work tries to find answers in Sölle's text, and that answer can be the reflection of aimless prayer, which is the "heart" of mysticism as resistance. Although Sölle emphasizes one aspect of the mystical relationship in particular - the transformation of man and the world, her goal is the unity of action and contemplation in in the form of the unity of mysticism and resistance. In her perspective, the relationship with God is not an isolated experience of an individual, but a reflection and at the same time a pattern of relationships within creation. Just as it does not separate action from contemplation, it does not separate the relationship between God and man and man and creation. As a result, Sölle's desire to find unity can be found in the background of this approach. It is precisely in the idea of mysticism as resistance, in the mysticism of open eyes, that the dialogical relationship of action and contemplation emerges, which is a mutual relationship. Action and contemplation are two sides of the same coin, i.e. one cannot exist without the other, and their harmony is a prerequisite (and consequence) of mysticism and resistance.

Problems with using of the reflexive "себя" in studying Russian
Tauchmanová Reslová, Eva ; Liptáková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Konečný, Jakub (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the Russian reflexive pronoun «себя» in comparison with the Czech pronoun. The aim of this thesis is to compile a set of exercises for students of the Russian language in order to eliminate mistakes in connection with this topic. The thesis is divided into two parts - a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part is based on specialized (academical) literature. This part contains general characteristics and classifications of pronouns. It focuses on issues with the Russian reflexive pronoun and its Czech equivalents. It also includes a chapter about transfer and interference. The practical part proceeds from the theoretical part and from a questionnaire. The questionnaire was completed by the first-year students of the Faculty of Education. On the basis of its results, general conclusions and proposals of exercises for acquiring the topic are formulated and intended for students of the Russian language.

Archaic, Traditional Law and Modern Commercial Law: A Study of Their Comparisons
Ledvinka, Tomáš ; Sokol, Jan (advisor) ; Kandert, Josef (referee) ; Brezina, Peter (referee)
The old anthropological question of the comparison between an archaic or traditional commercial law on one hand and a modern commercial law on the other is revisited using a conceptualization of an empirical study of legal comparisons performed within the real decision-making processes at work in the current Czech justice system. Commercial law is represented by a single legal institution - the law of reciprocity (comitas gentium) - which regulates the cooperation between various legal authorities and legal systems potentially entangled in cross-border commercial disputes. The reader is first introduced to the context and evidence-dependency of any legal comparison ranging from the representation of law and feud in Yemen at an asylum trial, to the legal systems regulating exchange contracts in Afghanistan involving cross-border disputes. The idea of comparing legal systems as two autonomous social units is abandoned in favor of the study of the comparative practices of a small population of Czech legal authorities, which furnishes readers with plenty of questions about the social organization of legal cognition. The dissertation refrains from drawing final conclusions using legal comparisons, instead it focuses on the limitations and barriers of marshalling evidence (symbolic representations) of...

Altruism in economics: Does purely unselfish altruism exists?
Tobiášová, Magdaléna ; Stroukal, Dominik (advisor) ; Chytilová, Helena (referee)
The thesis deals with altruism and searches for the existence of its purely unselfish form in economic theory by exploring the motives of altruism and works with the hypothesis that all altruistic behavior is motivated by altruists own utility. It focuses primarily on the economic theory of altruism and the blending of neoclassical economics, which deals with the rational behavior of economic subjects with the definition of altruism as irrational behavior. To develop the phenomenon of altruism from the point of view of economic theory, it also deals with altruism in the theory of games. This alternative approach describes altruism as reciprocal behavior and accesses it through relational goods.
