Verecká, Tereza ; VEDRAL, Jan (advisor) ; ULLRICHOVÁ, Daria (referee)
The first part of the thesis is concerned with the phenomenon of epic theatre, specifically with Bertolt Brecht's understanding and development of the notion in his texts. The thesis aims to grasp the essence of how the individual elements and principles of epic theatre influenced the eventual effect of theatre productions and how these elements and principles have been changing the ways of theatrical narration. The thesis also touches upon the issue of how the spectator can be manipulated through theatre. In its second part, the thesis reflects on the authorial experience Tereza Verecká has hitherto acquired and deals with the sum of her dramatic texts. It seeks to name the shortcomings of those texts and also the challenges with which Tereza Verecká is confronted in the creative process. Finally, the thesis tries to answer these challenges and offer possible solutions in the form of some of the methods of epic theatre.

Kučera, Tomáš ; Karásek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Bureš, Oldřich (referee)
Armed conflict that occurred after the end of the Cold War in the territory of former Yugoslavia and Soviet Union belong to the so cold phenomenon of new wars. New wars are said to differ from the old ones in its aims, methods of warfare, and in ways how they are iv financed. In spite of these supposed changes in fundamental character of war, a conflict dynamics - defined by intensity, rapidity of escalation, and conflict duration - of armed conflicts in post-communist area corresponds with classic notion of war, as it was described by Carl von Clausewitz. According to the theory based on Clausewitz's work conflict course can be seen as a resultant of three forces - group hostility, ability to build up and maintain military organisation, and rationality of political leadership. Group hostility works as driving power toward very escalated and long-lasting armed conflict and political leadership that realises aim of the war and its consequences for political relations in the aftermath works as a counterforce to hostility and therefore attempt to maintain intensity of violence within limits drawn by political aims. Without quick build up of a military organisation there cannot be supposed a rapid conflict escalation at the beginning of an armed conflict. The resultant of all the three forces, which reach in...

- 105 - Extent of duty of damages according to the Commercial Code - Summary The purpose of my thesis is to analyse the question whether or not it is possible to waive a claim of damages according to the Commercial Code.

I introduces various opinions in my thesis and I explains why I think that such the opinion is (or is not) wise and useful in practise. I personally adjudicates the opinion that it is in compliance with the Commercial Code to waive a claim of damages by the way of mutual agreement with respect to the subject-matter of fulfilment.

Chapter One is introductory and defines the thesis matter as a topical problem. The chapter is subdivided into two parts. Part One describes my aims which I would like to reach in the thesis and it explains two basic views of the possibility to change the extent of duty of damages. Part Two deals with partial issues subsequently discussed in the thesis. Chapter Two examines relevant Czech legislation which is generally refered to a right of...

The Doha Development Agenda
Obenbergerová, Linda ; Němečková, Tereza (advisor) ; Řehořová, Veronika (referee)
As the globalization goes further, the importance of international trade increases as well, not only as an instrument of reaching welfare but as a way to solve problems, too. The World Trade Organization (WTO) tries to put this approach into effect by means of liberalization. The current round of multilateral negotiations at the WTO that was launched in November 2001 in Qatar's capital Doha was to focus on developing countries. That is why it is usually called the Doha Development Agenda (DDA). The opponents claim, that the aspect of development is not strong enough, because developed countries do not want to make concessions (the main topic of this round are agricultural subsidies, harshly defended by the developed countries). The issue is the length of the round and constant postponing of the deadline to conclude DDA or even the absence of a credible classification of members according to their development phase. The original goal of this round lying in improvement of developing countries' situation in world trade is not being fulfilled and remains for the eights year almost unchanged.
