Resume Agriculture has intensified greatly in the last century and heavy machinery and chemical substances are being used, which causes negative impact on environment. On the other hand, organic farming tries to use natural resources with utmost care and rejects synthetic substances. The main goal of the thesis is to find and describe the most important differences of the legal regulation of conventional and organic farming. International regulation, regulation of European Union and Czech regulation are the main focus of the thesis. The first chapter tries to characterize conventional agriculture and describe its functions, briefly goes through its development and current status. Chapter deals with causes, subject and purpose of legal regulation and analyzes sources of law in the international law, European law with main focus on Common Agricultural Policy and Czech law. The second chapter is concieved similarly as the first one, but from the view of organic farming. It characterizes organic farming, describes its development and legal regulation on the international, European and Czech level. The third chapter takes a closer look on chosen institutes and sections of Czech legislation and tries to show the most important differences of conventional and organic farming. Chapter deals with agribusiness and...

This dissertation is focused on problems of borders, frontiers, frontier's effects of Czech-German relationships and the progress of their cooperation. The main part of this work is monitoring of the progress and changes of the basic demographic and socioeconomic indicators during the time. The district Klatovy near the German boundary is comparing with the evolution of indicators represented all area of Czech Republic. The gain is to mark out if the boundary areas show another tends and if we are able to evaluate it positively or negatively.

This Master Thesis is specialize in comparison of three central European airports in Prague, Vienna and Munich. In the first part there is general information about infrastructure of air transportation. It also includes development of air transportation and also organizations connected with aviation. After that there is some information about airports in general. This part is ended by airlines and low cost airlines. Second part of the thesis is dedicated to individual airports and their characteristics. There is some information about their history and about their attitude to environmental questions. This part also includes information about number of passengers, destinations and airlines. Third part is mostly about analysis of services like transportation to the airports, parking and other services which are compared at the end.

Many queers are drawn to ‘the city’, as an (imagined) more progressive, and queered space. Its urbanity may offer anonymity as well as community. A major city means both the presence of diversity, of other queers, as well as possibly a queered understanding of ‘the city’ itself, with rich queer histories and cultures ingrained into the public and private realm. But then again, the realities within the city of Berlin is often a different one. Finding community that works, a multitude of exclusions plus the need for safer spaces make it harder to connect and are part of the experience of queer community. I try to understand the queerness within the feeling of yearning, of trying to find a place where one belongs and connect it with the feelings of disappointment and loneliness. I conducted interviews following a semi-guided structure. In their analysis, I hope to understand how urban queer loneliness is experienced and understood.

To the field of cryptography, quantum mechanics is a game changer. The exploitation of quantum mechanical properties through the manipulation of quantum information, the information encoded in the state of quantum systems, would allow many protocols in use today to be broken as well as lead to the expansion of cryptography to new protocols. In this thesis, quantum encryption, i.e. encryption schemes for quantum data, is defined, along with several definitions of security, broadly divisible into semantic security and ciphertext indistinguishability, which are proven equivalent, in analogy to the foundational result by Goldwasser and Micali. Private- and public-key quantum encryption schemes are also constructed from quantum-secure cryptographic primitives, and their security is proven. Most of the results are in the joint paper Computational Security of Quantum Encryption, to appear in the 9th International Conference on Information Theoretic Security (ICITS2016).

This thesis contributes to the literature on intergroup contact by exploring the long-term impact of grassroots efforts on members of majority and minority groups involved in an intractable conflict. In such circumstances, the conflict parties’ existential survival is perceived to be at stake, which results in salient group boundaries magnified by competing memories of collective trauma. Drawing empirical support from the Jerusalem Youth Chorus—an Israeli-Palestinian encounter program based in Jerusalem—this paper examines opportunities to desecuritize intergroup relationships from the bottom-up. To this purpose, it scrutinizes Gordon Allport’s Contact Hypothesis and narratives of historical trauma. The findings from 16 semi-structured interviews conducted with alumni participants provide unique insights into the impact of a hybrid approach to contact, with music and dialogue providing fertile ground for sustainably rethinking us-them relations toward greater boundary permeability. They also highlight the scope and the limits of conducting bottom-up “memory work” in a societal context of severe asymmetry. Group-specific results are highlighted.

Aurimas Medonis Pasirinkto fizinių pratimų komplekso veiksmingumas Santrauka Tyrimo tikslas  įvertinti X klasės vaikinų pasirinktų fizinių pratimų kompleksų įvairialypį veiksmingumą. Nuo 2006 m. sausio 9d. iki 2006 m. gegužės 22 d. Vilniaus Žirmūnų gimnazijoje ir Vilniaus Šv. Kristoforo mokykloje buvo vykdytas ugdomasis pedagoginis eksperimentas. Jame dalyvavo 59 X klasių pagrindinės medicininės fizinio pajėgumo grupės vaikinai. Atsitiktiniu būdu buvo parinktos 3 eksperimentinės (E1  2a, 10c, 10d ─ 24 vaikinai) ir 4 kontrolinės (E2 ─ 2d, 2c, 10b, 10e ─ 35 vaikinai) klasės. Nepriklausomas kintamasis ─ sukurta fizinių ypatybių lavinimo per kūno kultūros pamokas bei laisvalaikiu metodika, kuri rėmėsi mokinio pasirinktu fizinių pratimų kompleksu. Ši metodika didino kūno kultūros pamokų žinias, įtvirtino savimoką. Eksperimentinėje (E1) grupėje vaikinams per 2 savaitines kūno kultūros pamokas buvo galima rinktis pratimus iš pateiktų variantų, taip pat sugalvoti savų pratimų. Be to pratimų kompleksą rekomenduota atlikti ir laisvalaikiu bent vieną kartą per savaitę. E2 grup��s vaikinai per kūno kultūros pamokas dirbo įprastai, į kūno kultūros pamokas įkomponuojant tradicines fizinių ypatybių lavinimosi priemones ir metodiką. Per eksperimentines kūno kultūros pamokas kryptingiau dirbta taikant bendradarbiavimo metodą: kūno kultūros ir socialiniai gebėjimai buvo plėtojami tiesiogiai mokiniams bendradarbiaujant dėl individualios atsakomybės ir teigiamos tarpusavio priklausomybės...
