Paulo sobre a crise econômica de 2008 como objeto para um estudo do jornalismo como forma de conhecimento. O objetivo foi compreender como foi realizada a cobertura da crise, do ponto de vista dos tipos de conteúdo que produziu, das perspectivas e explicações que adotou, das posturas políticas defendidas, em suma, das prioridades editoriais desenvolvidas pelo veículo. Adota-se a perspectiva de que o jornalismo é uma forma de conhecimento social cristalizada no singular, que realiza a mediação entre os fatos e o público, caracterizando-se, enquanto conhecimento, por sua comunicabilidade. Sustentamos que contradições sociais estão envoltas no processo de significação jornalístico, o que justifica um estudo abrangendo abordagens informativas e opinativas, mantendo-se a essência no singular. Tratamos da ascensão e das características do neoliberalismo como projeto de classe hegemônico, que também é apontado como matriz de explicação para a crise econômica tema do trabalho. O jornalismo de economia, por sua vez, é o espaço pelo qual se percebe a relação do jornalismo com projetos político-econômicos, particularmente, o neoliberalismo, a transformar as pautas e formas de organização do jornalismo. A análise da cobertura realizada pela Folha de S. Paulo tem como corpus 6.176 textos jornalísticos de diferentes tipos e as manchetes de capa das 243 edições publicadas pelo jornal entre agosto de 2008 e março de 2009, período de maior acentuação da crise, incluindo impactos na economia brasileira. Pudemos observar a intensidade com que a crise foi acompanhada ao longo das semanas, destacando-se a quebra do Banco Lehman Brothers como marco efetivo da explosão do número de matérias. No decorrer dos meses, há mudanças de foco na cobertura, notadamente migrando do mercado financeiro para os governos; do exterior para o Brasil. As formas desenvolvidas pelo jornalismo de economia representam a estruturação básica da cobertura, do ponto de vista de temáticas, fontes e outros elementos. Identificamos, nas posições político-econômicas defendidas pelo jornal em editoriais e relacionadas aos destaques de capa, uma ênfase no dever do Estado em resolver os problemas trazidos pela crise, expressando, nesse ponto, a visão da ortodoxia neoliberal, pois assenta sua posição no corte de gastos públicos, flexibilização das leis trabalhistas e direito inquestionável das empresas de demitir. Aponta-se a maior participação de ex-integrantes do governo como de autores não jornalistas que compõem a contextualização dos acontecimentos da crise. Há uma ênfase no ponto de vista do mercado financeiro para observar os eventos e espaços generosos às entidades empresariais, ao contrário do que ocorre com os movimentos sociais e representação de trabalhadores. O econômico e o político estão inter-relacionados, tendo o jornalismo parte nesse contato, no caso da crise, reforçando a perspectiva hegemônica neoliberal. Conclui-se que, embora seja engendrada por concepções neoliberais, a cobertura se desenvolve baseada em formas de conhecer criadas pelo jornalismo. / This paper takes the coverage of Folha de S. Paulo about the economic crisis of 2008 as object for a study of journalism as a form of knowledge. It aimed understand how the coverage of the crisis was carried out from the point of view of the types of content produced, the perspectives and explanations adopted, the political positions defended, in short, the editorial priorities developed by the vehicle. The perspective adopted was that journalism is a form of social knowledge crystallized in the singular, that mediates facts and public, characterized, as knowledge, by its communicability. We argued that social contradictions are shrouded in the journalistic significance process, which justifies a study including informative and opinionated approaches, supporting the essence in the singular. The rise of neoliberalism and its features are understood as hegemonic class project, which is also indicated as explanation matrix for the economic crisis. Economic journalism, in turn, is the space in which it is perceived the relation between journalism and political-economic projects, particularly, neoliberalism, transforming the guidelines and forms of journalism organization. The analysis of the coverage of Folha de S. Paulo includes a corpus of 6,176 journalistic texts of different types and the cover headlines of the 243 issues published by the journal between August 2008 and March 2009, period of accentuation of the crisis, including impacts on Brazilian economy. It was possible to observe the intensity with which the crisis was followed over the weeks, emphasizing the crash of Lehman Brothers as an effective framework of the explosion in the number of news stories. Over the months, there were changes of focus on coverage, especially migrating from the financial market to governments; from abroad to Brazil. The forms developed by economic journalism represent the basic structure of the coverage from the point of view of themes, fonts and other elements. It was identified an emphasis on the duty of the state to solve the problems caused by the crisis, expressing the view of neoliberal orthodoxy as it rests its position in cuts of public spending, liberalization of labor legislation and unquestionable right of companies to dismiss in the political and economic positions taken by newspaper editorials and related to the highlights of cover. It was pointed the greater participation of former members of the government and non-journalists as authors that create the context of the crisis events. There was an emphasis on the point of view of financial market to observe the events and there were generous spaces to business entities, in contrast to what occurs with social movements and worker representation. The economic and the political aspects are interrelated, and journalism has participation in this relation, in the case of crisis, reinforcing the neoliberal hegemonic perspective. It was concluded that, although it is engendered by neoliberal concepts, coverage was developed based on ways of knowing created by journalism.

La crise économique et sociale que nous connaissons actuellement met en lumière la nécessité d’une action publique volontariste et, s’agissant des collectivités territoriales qui sont les principaux acteurs de l’investissement public, l’exigence d’une politique résolument tournée vers l’investissement de long terme, comme moteur de l’économie et de la reprise. Focalisé sur la notion de PPP, d’un part dans son acceptation la plus large, l’expression « partenariat public-privé » ou encore « PPP », désigne une formule générique englobant toutes formes de coopération entre la sphère publique et privée. D’autre part, utilisée dans un sens plus strict que celui de notion générique englobant toutes formes de coopération entre le public et le privé, la notion de PPP renvoie à une technique contractuelle ayant pour objet de confier au secteur prive la conception, le financement, la construction et l’exploitation d’un bien ou d’un ouvrage d’intérêt collectif. / The economic and social crisis we are currently experiencing highlights the need for a proactive public policy and, in the case of local authorities who are the main actors of public investment, the requirement of a policy resolutely turned towards the ' long-term investment as a motor engine of the economy and the recovery. Focused on the concept of PPP, a share in its broadest sense, the term «public -private partnership» or «PPP» refers to a generic formula encompassing all forms of cooperation between public and private sphere. On the other hand , used a more stringent than generic term encompassing all forms of cooperation between the public and private sense, the term refers to a contractual PPP technique for entrust the private sector to design, finance, construct and operate of a well or a work of collective interest.

This thesis aims to analyze the origins of the 2007-2009 financial and economic crisis in the US and describe the most significant channels that caused its transmission to the EU countries. Second part of this paper compares both the progress and consequences the financial and economic crisis had for the United Kingdom and Germany with respect to institutional differences of their economic models. Firstly, the second part of this paper focuses on the main institutional patterns including market for corporate control, banking sector, market as a means of financial allocation, labour market flexibility and the economic role of the state. Secondly, using an elaborate micro and macroeconomic data analysis I compare both the progress and the impacts the crisis had on the UK and German economy. Hereby I show that some of the differences in the progress and economic consequences the crisis had for the UK and Germany (price bubble on the real estate market, firms' financial distress, lower domestic and foreign demand and increased unemployment rate) reflected the institutional particularities of their economic models.

The goal of this thesis is to create a comprehensive overview of how the economic crisis influenced the business intelligence market. The introduction is dedicated to the general principles of the business intelligence technologies. It is followed by analysis and identification of the commercial sector's problems associated with the recent economic decline as well as shortcomings that the corporate executives commit in the times of economic growth, and a proposal of solutions to these problems using Business Intelligence applications. The next part of the work is focused on the global analysis of benefits of the solutions and their future development. The final part of the thesis serves as an argument to highlight the importance of BI and is demonstrated on several examples of successful BI implementations in various businesses operating in different sectors. The thesis aims not only to analyze and document the development and changes in the understanding of Business Intelligence during the economic crisis but it should also motivate potential readers from among the management to consider whether they should also support the acquisition of BI in their businesses. This document should prove that if they invest in Business Intelligence in times of crisis then they might not need to implement unpopular solutions to their problems. The relevance of this subject is only underscored by the fact that unless the development of the world economy improves its current course, we might find ourselves at the beginning of another, perhaps even more significant crisis. The appendix summarizes the BI applications' inputs, different processing and information analysis methods, and the possibility of using their outputs to improve the operation of the enterprise.

The thesis deals with effects of the economic crisis on the performance of two selected municipalities, Slaný and Smečno. There is analyzed the influence of crisis on the financial management of municipalities in 2008-2010. The thesis proposed ways communities can prevent a reduction in tax revenues and increase in current expenditures. Follow the determination whether these communities use these options. An integral part is the financial analysis that evaluates the financial health of both communities in 2008-2010.I focuses on the basic of indicators based on income and expenditure, as well as the debt and liquidity indicators. The work shows that the economic crisis has affected both municipalities. A noticeable drop in revenue was primarily in income taxes. On the contrary, stable sources of municipal budgets have become a value added tax, property tax and local taxes. Both municipalities have in times of economic crisis created sufficient financial resources and were able to easily pay their obligations. None of the municipalities is more indebted and their debt service gradually declined.

The diploma thesis is concerned with influence of current economic crisis on tax revenues of municipalities. The main goal of thesis is to analyze this crisis influence on tax revenues of municipalities in the Czech Republic and especial in two chosen municipalities. In the first part the revenues of municipalities are described, in the second part the analysis of impact of the crisis to Czech region and municipalities follows. The third chapter is about two chosen municipalities and it analyzes their tax revenues between 2008 and 2010. The last part analyzes the cash performance in two chosen municipalities in 2008 and 2009. I found out that tax revenues of Czech municipalities decreased in 2009 by 11,6%, it is 17,8 billion Czech Crowns. In 2010 total tax revenues increased by 4,6%. In Bechyně we can see the similar situation as in the Czech Republic. Tax revenues decreased by 13% in 2009, they increased then by only 3% in 2010. In Sudoměřice u Bechyně there is the situation surprisingly different. In 2009 tax revenues decreased only by 5,5%. In 2010 they increased by 12%. Two chosen municipalities overcame the crisis well, they did not have any existential problems and they were able to manage the bad economic situation and covered it from their resources.

Nowadays, the phenomenon of the Economic Crisis is still very topical economic issue. Not only private but also public sphere suffer from Economic Crisis. Thesis, called "Municipal Tax Revenues in Times of the Economic Crisis", deals with development of tax revenues between 2007 and 2010. In addition, this paper scrutinizes evolution of other revenues that flows into municipal budgets. For this analysis, three cities in Central Region of the Czech Republic, such as Mladá Boleslav, Mnichovo Hradiště and Kosmonosy, were selected. Above-mentioned work also focuses on possibilities of municipalities in terms of coping with reduced tax revenues. The crisis have not affected monitored municipalities so dramatically. Although tax revenues have considerably decreased, municipalities did cope with such a situation by means of drawing reserves from previous years. Thesis is divided into four chapters. First part deals predominantly with municipal revenues in general (tax, non-tax, capital receipts, subsidies) and budget-designated taxes. In the next chapter, revenues of chosen municipalities are analysed. In the third chapter, these revenues are compared by the test of selected municipalities. The last part formulates municipalities` options to prevent the reduction in tax revenues.

This diploma thesis focuses on the defining of separate socio-economic models and characteristics of chosen performance criteria. It describes integrated European model, further it aims on a comparison of Scandinavian, Continental, Anglo-Saxon and Mediterranean models with a stress on the Scandinavian one. It also concentrates on a general characteristic of the countries that belong to this specific model and analyses the reasons of its relative success in comparison with others. Focus is also put on a SWOT analysis of the Scandinavian model, analysis of its performance during the period of the economic crisis which spread globally in 2008. Finally, the thesis describes some specific recommendations for a sustainable development of this model.

The main topic of this master thesis is to analyze the development of (un)employment rate at Czech labour market between the years 1998 -- 2011 with the major focus on period after the impacts of economic crisis. Another goal of this essay is to evaluate and analyze the impact of the economic crisis on various labor market indicators together with sensitivity of each gender on the performance of the Czech economy. Theoretical part of essay will explain the basic concepts through the literature. The analysis will focus on comparing and evaluating the development of unemployment rates in selected regions and unemployment by gender. The method used is a comparative analysis of development of regional and gender unemployment which will be then interpreted with time series and geometrical interpretation. Theoretical foundations are confronted with the results of analytic work which enables to provide a comprehensive evaluation.

Can freedom to negotiate - and thus to seek a regulation closer to reality for the parties directly concerned, especially in times of economic crisis - allow the disregard of legally and long regulated rights? Would the flexibilization of these rights necessarily require deregulation of those same rights? If there are compensatory clauses, is it possible and valid the negotiation that chooses not to apply rights enshrined in labor legislation, without compromising the principle of worker protection? The analysis of these issues is at stake when trying to achieve the best possible balance in collective labor relations / A polêmica discussão da prevalência do negociado sobre o legislado tem estimulado vários estudos sobre o real alcance da autonomia privada coletiva nas relações de trabalho. A liberdade de negociar e, com isso, buscar uma regulamentação mais próxima da realidade para as partes diretamente interessadas, notadamente em tempos de crises econômicas, pode autorizar a não aplicação de direitos legislados, e há muito regulamentados? A flexibilização desses direitos importaria, necessariamente, a desregulamentação dos mesmos? Em havendo cláusulas compensatórias, é possível e válida a negociação que deixa de aplicar direitos consagrados na legislação trabalhista, sem comprometer o princípio protetivo do trabalhador? A análise dessas questões está em jogo quando se busca alcançar o maior equilíbrio possível nas relações coletivas de trabalho
