Cílem práce je systematicky zpracovat aktivity mezinárodních společností na území České republiky, porovnat rozdílnosti a ověřit kladené hypotézy na dostupných datech České národní banky. V poslední části kladu na roveň trojici Česká republika, Maďarsko a Polsko, země, které jsou do určité míry s Českou republikou srovnatelné a můžeme si u nich klást a ověřovat stejné hypotézy. Pro tuto část využívám data poskytovaná Organizací pro ekonomickou spolupráci a rozvoj. Pro analýzy jsem upravil Herfindahlův index koncentrace, jehož využívám pro měření homogenity.

Od poloviny devadesátých let min. století se ve vnitřním obchodě při jeho liberalizaci vytvořil trend intenzivní koncentrace, čemuž významně přispěl vstup zahraničního kapitálu. V tomto kontextu zaujaly patřičné místo na vnitřním trhu v obchodních strukturách a sítích přímé zahraniční investice nadnárodních společností. Internacionalizace retailingu pokročila natolik, že je určující pro rozvoj odvětví, nicméně vyváženost rozvoje obchodu současně vyžaduje podporu malého a středního podnikání

Cílem diplomové práce je analýza vztahu tržní koncentrace a efektivnosti odvětví. Přestože potvrzený vztah může být významný pro mnoho subjektů v ekonomice, doposud provedené empirické studie nedávají jasnou odpověď na otázku, zda jsou firmy fungující v odvětvích s vyšší tržní koncentrací efektivnější či nikoli. K analýze jsou použita data Českého statistického úřadu, která jsou tříděna a agregována dle odvětvové klasifikace ekonomických činností. Datová základna poskytuje údaje za roky 1998 až 2006 a jedná se výhradně o zpracovatelský průmysl České republiky. Metodou ověřování vztahu koncentrace ? efektivnost odvětví je regresní a korelační analýza.

This Diploma thesis is following the previous Bachelor thesis which mainly focuses on drain systems and the analysis their influence of the quality of surface water. The literature review contains the description of surface water quality, substances causing the eutrophication, drainages and drain systems. Also the mechanisms influencing the change of quality of surface water after the the drain systems construction are included. In the chapter "Methodology", there are the statistical methods for concentration evaluation exposed, also the detiled description of setting up the crossing of empirical line for concentration substances in water and the drain separation methods with the aim to set the average phosporus and nitrogen concentration within the each drain component are covered. All of the evaluation which are followed by methodology in relation to sites of interest are described in detailed way in the chapter called "Material". The chapter "Results and discussion" focuses on overall description and evaluation of all the results.

Martinů, B.: The analysis of the beer industry in the Czech republic. Diploma thesis. Brno, 2014. This thesis describes the dimension and the development of the brewery sector in the Czech Republic according to the selected indicators. The theoretical part defines the development of the agrarian sector with a focus on the issues shaping the economic context of agribusiness. It also deals with the definition of an agricultural market and the characteristics of the food sector. And last but not least, the thesis describes critical connections and historical context of the development of the brewing industry. The work identifies the fundamental factors shaping brewery industry in the Czech Republic and in particular the development of this sector, with an evaluation of the changes that occur the analyzed period, with a description of causation. The work focuses on the factors conditioning the existence and successful functioning of the Czech brewery industry, such as the volume of beer produced, the number of breweries, consumption and foreign trade. The remaining part of the thesis analyzes the individual determinants of the market structure and follows up the categorization of the Czech breweries, the differences in their production and market strategies, such as concentration, entry barriers or competition strategies, and it is here where the whole commodity vertical of the beer production is defined. The gained knowledge can be further used to estimate the future development of the Czech brewery industry and also to anticipate the changes that may occur in this sector.

The main aim of the thesis is to explore the possibilities of creative work in an enclosed group of actors. The essential question to be answered is, how can the actor or the group itself explore and further develop creative potential of the individual or how it can limit development of the acting potential on the other hand. The thesis among others focuses on the obstacles which one needs to overcome, what are some of the rules to follow, in order for this "ecosystem" to work and successfully develop further on. The thesis provides unique insight into enclosed group of actors called Gruppo Jobel, the work within the group is reflected on the background of studies on Prague's DAMU theater acting and supported by wide span of related literature. The outcome of the thesis is mainly the inspiration, which can positively influence actors when studying and practicing the theater plays or can be influential in other creative fields related to theater and acting in general.

The theme of this thesis is the impact of water deficit on the concentration of proline and electrolyte leakage from representatives of the Panicoideae tribe. The impact of drought on agricultural production in the environment of the Czech Republic is currently an important issue. The exceptionall dry year of 2014/2015 and the associated water deficit in the soil had an impact mainly on the harvest of wide-row crops, including maize. Representatives of the Panicoideae tribe - sorghum and foxtail millet are the most drought-resistance crops in the world. Sorghum and foxtail millet belong to II. group of cereals like maize. Sorghum and foxtail millet show lower transpiration coefficient than maize, they also tolerates less demanding growing conditions and are more resistant to diseases and pests. They also compete with maize in a wide range of applications. It is therefore appropriate to determine how these crops respond to water deficit during their ontogenetic development. For the purposes of this experiment genotypes originating from conditions of temperate climate were selected, this genotypes have a shorter growing season. A short growing season is an important factor in the timing of the harvest of the late sown crops in our climate. The aim of the thesis was to determine and evaluate the impact of water deficit on the concentration of proline and electrolyte leakage in selected genotypes of sorghum and foxtail millet and on the basis of the results to select genotypes with high resistance to water deficit. Based on the aims the following hypotheses were set: to determine whether there are differences in the concentration of proline and electrolyte leakage between selected genotypes depending on the effect of water deficit and whether there are differences in these physiological characteristics in response to water deficit between sorghum and foxtail millet. To fulfill the objectives and evaluation the hypothesis was based on the greenhouse experiment with selected genotypes of sorghum and foxtail millet at the Department of Botany and Plant Physiology in the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague. The experiment included 4 genotypes of the species Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench. (Sorghum): 1216, 30485, Barnard Red and Ruzrok and one variety of the species Setaria italica (L.) Beauv. (Foxtail millet) Ruberit. A total of 4 variants were designated for the experiment (one control and three under the influence of water deficit in different times). The plants in the control variant were full irrigated throughout the experiment. Variant KS was irrigated for the first 14 days, followed by 10 days without watering and the last 4 days were again irrigated. Plants in variant SK were under the influence of water deficit for the first 10 days of the experiment, then 18 days with watering and the plants in the variant SS were without watering for the first 10 days, for the next 4 days were without watering, then the same pattern was repeated: 10 days without and 4 days with watering. Physiological characteristics were observed in plants in the developmental stages BBCH 14-16. The concentration of proline was determined by measuring the absorbance of the samples formed by the reaction with ninhydrin. Subsequently, the measured values were compared with the calibration curve. To measure the sample absorbance at 520 nm a spectrophotometer Hellios gama (Thermo) was used. Electrolyte leakage on discs made from leafs was measured with electrical conductivity meter GRYF 158 (HB Griffin, Ltd.). The obtained results show that the proline concentration increased in response to water stress, since the highest concentration of proline was detected in plants growing in the most stressed variant of SS (670.13 micrograms) compared with other variants of stress. Plants variant KS (643.85 micrograms) showed a higher accumulation than the proline in variant SK (636.69 micrograms). The highest concentration of proline was measured on a genotype in the variety of sorghum Ruzrok (642.94 micrograms). The lowest content of proline was found in the variety of sorghum 1216 (623.78 micrograms), this value was also the only significant difference from the contents of proline to other genotypes. Which at least partly confirms the proposed hypothesis that there are differences in the content of proline between genotypes. The highest electrolyte leakage cell damage was respectively exhibited in plants from the variant SS (39.56%). Plants of the SK variant showed a higher rate of cell damage (32.95%) than plants from the variant KS (29.88%). The lowest cell damage was exhibited in plants grown under control conditions, which again indicates that damage cells increases in response to water deficit. In this experiment the highest degree of cell damage was found in the variety of sorghum 1216 (29.26%) and lowest cell damage was observed in the variety of sorghum Ruzrok (27.03%). A significant different degree of cell damage appeared only in the variety foxtail millet Ruberit (28.6%), which confirms our hypothesis that there are differences in the electrolyte leakage between sorghum and foxtail millet. The hypotheses were not fully confirmed by the experiment. Nevertheless, on the basis of obtained results we conclude that the least drought-resistance genotype is the 1216 variety and the best adapted to the water deficit was the Ruzrok variety. It also confirmed that the higher proline accumulation may protect the plant against the negative effects of water deficit on the cell membranes, which is then reflected in a reduced electrolyte leakage.

Over the last ten years the phenomenon of opening new microbreweries has reached Czechia. Since 2008 more than 350 new microbreweries have been opened and the map of breweries has recorded significant changes. Regarding these facts the main goals of this thesis were to analyze the brewing industry in Czechia in the context of ownership structure, concentration tendencies and mergers and acquisitions activity. First part focuses on the characteristics of the breweries' geographical layout related to the ownership structure and size based on annual beer production and in context of selected socioeconomic indicators. Following this part is an analysis of decomposition with use of concentration and cluster ratios. This part aims on cluster forming tendencies of brewing companies. The analytical part is completed with mergers and acquisitions characteristics in this industry sector. The basic figures and signs of the geographical decompositions were identified based on selected analytical methods and complex maps. Several concentration zones where breweries tend to cluster were labeled using the cluster analysis. Mergers and acquisitions reveal the difference in integration activity according to the brewery size. Key words: brewing industry, breweries, ownership structure, concentration, cluster, Czechia
