Prostorová dynamika obyvatel v České republice, 1989 - 2007 / Spatial Dynamics of the Population in the Czech Republic, 1989 - 2007

Vobecká, Jana January 2010 (has links)
3 Abstract The aim of the thesis is to describe, analyse and discuss the development of spatial population dynamics in the Czech Republic between 1989 and 2007. Demographic structure and migration, the two components of spatial population dynamics, are analysed using two spatial dimensions, the urban-suburban-rural gradient and the core-periphery region distinction, using quantitative analyses, including gravity regression modelling of migration. The analysis primarily focuses on domestic migration as the main vehicle of spatial population dynamics. It discusses the structure, determinants, and temporal evolution of migration and its consequences on the population structure in different spatial categories. The thesis indicates that suburbanisation has recently become the main factor influencing Czech spatial population dynamics. The key factor determining migration destination is the social status of migrants, whereas age has only secondary importance. However, since Czechs are not very mobile, population dispersal is less large-scale than in Western-Europe. This explains why recent domestic migration patterns have had only a small measurable influence on the social or demographic structures of the population across spatial categories. Key words: suburbanisation, domestic migration, gravity modelling,...

Mechorosty agrocenóz ČR / Field bryophytes of the Czech Republic

Man, Matěj January 2015 (has links)
3 ABSTRACT More than 30 % of agricultural land in Europe also Czech Republic is covered by arable fields. There is no evidence about diversity of some arable fields bounded species groups. In general the diversity of arable land species is less than the wild land species. For increasing species diversity in agricultural land European commission comes up with agri environmental farming schemes in 90's. Till now real effectiveness of the agri environmental schemes is not clear for all species groups. In my thesis I have investigated whether the diversity and community composition of arable bryophytes species is influenced by agri environmental or conventional management on cereal fields. The influence of agri environmental management on arable bryophytes was never investigated in Europe unlike the other species groups like vascular plants, non vertebrates or vertebrates. The thesis stands on dataset provided by Ministry of agriculture for 3 Czech regions (kraj Vyso ina, Pardubický kraj, St edo eský kraj). My own research of arable bryophytes diversity held on 12 fields within 6 localities is the main part of the thesis supplemented by basic soil measurements and climatic characteristics extractions. Main result of the thesis is finding that conventional management has marginally positive effect on arable...

The Efficiency of Public Expenditure, Evidence from the Czech Republic / The Efficiency of Public Expenditure, Evidence from the Czech Republic

Vraná, Veronika January 2016 (has links)
1 Abstract Efficiency is an important concept for performance evaluation of decision- making units. This thesis studies efficiency of public spending and methods of its estimation. Firstly, a wide range of efficiency estimators are defined and compared. For the public spending efficiency analysis the most convenient es- timator is found to be the cost frontier approach of the Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA). The second part of the thesis contains efficiency analysis of public spending in the 14 regions of the Czech Republic in the years 2003-2014. For the analysis current expenditure of regional offices is used as the input. Based on the investigation of regional services output index is formed and employed in the analysis. The estimation is performed using the cost frontier approach of the SFA as the main method. Various other efficiency estimators are then applied to the data in order to study robustness of the results. The thesis further discusses relative ranking of the regions and time evolution of efficiency scores using different assumptions and variety of methods. Lastly, several potential effects on the estimated efficiency are considered and analysed.

Kontraurbanizace: rytmy, identity, domovy / Counterurbanisation: rhytmus, identities, homes

Šimon, Martin January 2012 (has links)
8 Abstract Counterurbanisation research, which is a central topic of this thesis, represents an appropriate field where transformations of contemporary societies and their socio- spatial organization can be examined. The dynamics of social and societal changes creates a demand for developing new methods and tools which helps us to understand contemporary change. Counterurbanisation is a multi-faceted concept which has been controversial since its initial use. An introduction of the concept of counterurbanisation in the field of population geography provoked a general debate on new and emerging trends in development of settlement system. Different logics of concentration and deconcentration of human activities has been challenged. Counterurbanisation operationalized as a migration poses a challenge for many standard conceptualizations of migration. The logic of non-economically motivated migration from the centre to the periphery requires a search for alternative explanatory mechanisms. Impact assessment and the impact of counterurbanisation in rural communities are analogous to the classical social science studies evaluating the integration of immigrants from rural areas in the cities. The thesis is composed of two basic sections. The first section presents a broader theoretical and methodological...

Modelování vládních výdajů a endogenní zdanění v modelech nového Keynesiánství : případ České republiky / Modeling of government spending and endogenous tax rates in New Keynesian models : the case of Czech Republic

Zelený, Tomáš January 2012 (has links)
The topic of fiscal policy has been long neglected in terms of fiscal policy's interdependence with other main macroeconomic variables. Presented thesis therefore analyses the validity of different fiscal policy models for the case of Czech Republic. Dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) framework is used throughout the thesis. Different fiscal policy rules are put into otherwise identical - benchmark - model and the models are compared to each other and to the benchmark model. The analysed fiscal policy models are an acyclical, counter- cyclical, two pro-cyclical and dichotomous spending models. We find that the most plausible fiscal policy rule is of pro-cyclical type and closely follows the model of Alesina et al. (2008). The model assumes that interest groups can steal part of government income through corruption and voters cannot observe it, so they demand maximum fiscal spending in the good times. The logic of this model is in accordance with the current state of fiscal and economic behaviour in Czech Republic.

Právní úprava mezinárodního rozhodčího řízení v České republice a republice Argentina / Legal Regulation of International Arbitration Procedure in the Czech Republic and Argentina

Milerová, Sylvie January 2012 (has links)
Legal Regulation of International Arbitration Procedure in the Czech Republic and Argentina The purpose of my thesis is to describe the legal regulations of international arbitration in the Czech Republic and Argentina, find the differences between them and draw appropriate conclusions. The thesis begins with an introduction, where I outline the reasons why I chose this topic, the method used and the outcome that I plan to reach. Following the introduction, the thesis is divided into six chapters. The first chapter provides the reader with a general overview of basic concepts of arbitration. The chapter begins with an attempt to define what arbitration is by putting it in a historical context and then placing it within (or beyond) the scope of alternative dispute resolution. Next, the four main theoretical concepts, which are crucial for the understanding of arbitration, are outlined. The last part of the chapter contains the advantages and disadvantages of arbitration, which explain the popularity of (international) arbitration. The next chapter deals with the legal regulation of international arbitration in the Czech Republic. It opens with a brief description of development of arbitration throughout Czech history and then is divided into sub-chapters dealing with specific elements of...

Válková, Kateřina January 2012 (has links)
Fertility transformation in the youngest age from point of view of demography Abstract This thesis aims at evaluating fertility transformation in the youngest age in the 20th century and at the beginning of the 21st century in the Czech Republic. Circumstances and causes of transformation of fertility in this age group of women are based on usage of theoretical concepts related to fertility issues in the youngest age. The chosen period shows a number of changes in socioeconomic, political and legislative way. The transformation of the society in 20th century had influence on fertility level and fertility timing. Form of motherhood in the young age has changed also. Differences of characteristics of fertility in youngest age influenced by social evolution were shown on example of comparison of young women fertility evolution in Czech Republic, France and Romania. It approves that fertility level in the youngest age can be the driver of the social progression. Keywords: fertility, Czech Republic, young mother

Bednář, Marcel January 2016 (has links)
The Constitutional Institute of Pardon and Amnesty The diploma thesis called The Constitutional Institute of Pardon and Amnesty is dealing with highly relevant issues often discussed at the political scene of the Czech Republic. It reflects the current debate on whether the institutes should remain in the legal system of the Czech Republic. The main thesis was chosen accordingly - on the contrary to arguments pleading for removing the institutes. The diploma thesis explains the main terms and theoretical divisions, as well as various forms of the institutes of pardon and amnesty. One of the chapters is devoted to the meaning of the institutes which may play a significant role when considering legitimacy of pardons and amnesties. Current domestic legislation regarding the institutes is described with regard to consequences of international law. The process of presidential pardon granting is elaborated in detail. Critical moments of the process are emphasised and different approaches of the three presidents of the Czech Republic are compared. The chapter concerning amnesty is constructed similarly. Critical moments of the institutes of pardon and amnesty are discussed thoroughly. The focus is aimed to problems such as responsibility, overusing or misusing of the institutes or clash with the...
