Providing aid to the inhabitants struck by the stress incentives is on a good level. The findings show that the system of aid providing is set and guarantees its functionality as well as efficiency. Its part is also the preparation of the members of components of the Integrated Rescue System to provide the aid during the stress load of the inhabitants. It is provided on the sufficient level with a significant effort of services bodies and services bodies for its development and structuring. The problem consists in the level of preparedness of the inhabitants. Their behaviour does not correspond to the needs, the people behave in a chaotic way, do not respect the instructions, underestimated the danger. The reason is not that no suitable conditions were created for their preparation or that such a preparation was not performed at all. It was found out that the offer for the substantial education of inhabitants is on the sufficient level and has an adequate scope. Also its forms cover real expectations. The problem is its limited usage by inhabitants for the reason of underestimation of risks and danger. The people are indifferent and persuaded they personally cannot be endangered or struck. The consequence is the state in which neither the individuals nor their communities are prepared on the extraordinary events and they do not know how to behave during them rationally and safely. This leads to the further deepening of the stress load and to the gradation of the initiated psychological problems. As a solution, the creation of a general public meaning is recommended alerting to danger of extraordinary events and to the necessity of a responsible personal preparation on them, including the awareness of the associated psychological endangerment.

In this thesis, the theory of rational irrationality is used to explore the incentives behind seemingly irrational beliefs held by a large part of the contemporary American society towards anthropogenic climate change. Applying causal analysis, three questions are answered: "is it rationally irrational for people to be indifferent towards climate change?" "Are Americans inherently more likely than others to hold irrational beliefs about global issues such as climate change?" If so, "is this phenomenon rooted in certain values that constitute the American identity?" The author focuses on specific "American values" and uses statistics and recent empirical studies to find correlations and causality between those values and the exhibited behavior of individuals, while discussing its possible causes and implications. The study concludes that the root cause of irresponsibility of the American citizen towards climate change is a lack of social mechanisms rewarding individuals for holding epistemologically accurate beliefs. The author then proposes a set of general measures to be prioritized in order to improve social reward mechanisms in the American society. If implemented, those measures should be able to effectively enforce epistemic rationality in the U.S. political debate, which is desirable...

This master's thesis offers comprehensive perspective of good governance concept in a theoretical level as well as from a practical point of view with emphasis on the Czech Republic. The objective of the thesis is to investigate the theoretical background of the good governance concept and its basic principles, focused on dealing with the concept in the Czech Republic. The work also provides the assessment of the critical points associated with the good governance concept implementation and attempts to provide the possible solutions to eliminate these points. Thirteen research interviews were conducted with the public administration staff members and the leading experts in the field to analyze the current state of good governance in the Czech Republic. Thematic analysis was utilized for this purpose and results have shown that good governance is not broadly applied yet. Besides the apparent issues such as problems with human resources, communication, politicization of public administration, departmentalism or absence of long-term vision, the key obstacle to implementation of the good governance concept in the Czech Republic seems to be low level of cultural and social standards.
