Civil service Act - Development and result
Staněk, Michal ; Svoboda, Petr (advisor) ; Millerová, Ivana (referee)
Civil service Act - Development and result Abstract The new Civil Service Act (CSA) is a significantly amended version of the previous Civil Service Act № 218/2002 that never came fully into force. This thesis briefly describes the main principles and reasoning behind the proposed legislative measures, taking into account specific socio-political context and reflecting previous practice of public employment in the Czech Republic. During 21 years of its existence, the Czech Republic was governed by 13 different governments. In average, the state witnessed change in its leadership every 18 months. This political instability left a significant mark on the Czech public administration that continuously suffered from excessive political interference. In connection with the accession to the EU, the Civil Service Act approved by the Commission was adopted in 2002. Its entry into force, however, was five times postponed by numerous Czech governments, allegedly because of high budgetary demands of the implementation (the reason that has never been proven). The employment of state employees was based on the Labour Code and they did not enjoy any special legal protection. Frequent changes of top and middle management of the administrative bodies that usually followed after each political change led to the loss of...

Influence of the European Commission on the Adoption of the Public Service Law in the Czech Republic
Havelka, Vít ; Šlosarčík, Ivo (advisor) ; Weiss, Tomáš (referee)
The master's thesis focuses on the role of the European Commission in the adoption of the Public Service Law (zákon č. 234/2014 Sb., o státní službě) in the Czech Republic. Its goal is to identify particular European Commission's tools of influence and their utilisation in the analysed case. The case study puts stress not only on hard methods (such as ex ante conditionality), but also on soft forms of influence (e.g. socialisation or persuasion). The Commission's tools were sorted according to Frank Schimmelfennig and Ulrich Sedelmeier's typology: 1) External-Incentive-Model; 2) Social-Learning- Model and 3) Lesson-Drawing-Model. The thesis combines two methodological approaches - process tracing and discursive analysis of relevant Czech actors. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and publically accessible documents.
