The starting point of the diploma thesis is a discussion of the direct election of mayors in the Czech Republic. The aim of the thesis in this context is to assess whether the direct election of mayors is appropriate in the normative framework of territorial administration of Czech municipalities and if so, under what circumstances. A partial aim of the work, intended to lead to the fulfilment of the main aim, is the description of the formal role of mayors in the administration of municipalities, the description of the manner of appointment of mayors into their positions, as well as the description of the anchoring of the position and election of mayors of municipalities in selected European countries. Another partial aim is the description of starting points for the direct election of mayors, stemming from the attitudes of mayors of selected municipalities. The subject of study will be the normative setting of the mayors position in the regional administration in the Czech Republic and simultaneously the manner of their election. Another subject of study will be the attitudes of various mayors in relation to the issue of their formal position and election. The data on the mayors attitudes will be obtained by the focus group technique. The criterion for the selection of respondents will be the municipality size. The purpose of the work is to generalize the data obtained and to assess it on the basis of the prevailing opinion.

The thesis deals with the development of the village Chanovice located in the Pilsen region on the western edge of the Klatovy district. It has six local districts, whose history is introduced. Part called Development of demographic shows regressive development of the population and its movement. The urban structure characterizes the appearance of the village and information on economic activity added perspective on employment in the region. In following part is presented the structure of the Municipal Authority, including councilors and mayor, who are the key players in local politics and thus indicate the direction in the development of the municipality. We can also look into the municipal budget in a simple summary of revenues and expenses. A considerable role in small villages is played by local communities and associations, of which there are countless in Chanovice and thus there are presented just those they have the greatest influence on the running of the village. The important part is the performance of political actors and description of each electoral period starting after the revolution in 1990 to 2014. In this part are mentioned some conflicts with which the Municipality meets and face them. Most information was obtained from semi-structured interviews, which were conducted with representatives of local political movements and former local politicians, and based on the method of understanding interview then interpreted in this thesis.

Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je da se na osnovu praćenja titra antitela klase G kod prasadi i tovljenika utvrdi uticaj vakcinacije na visinu titra antitela specifičnih za PCV2, kao i da se utvrdi uticaj vakcinacije na proizvodne osobine svinja.Mere imunoprofilakse, koje se ipak smatraju nezamenljivim u kontroli ove bolesti kod nas do sada nisu bile deo kontrole, nasuprot velikom broju vakcinisanih krmača i prasadi u svetu. Iz tog razloga, kao i činjenica da u našoj zemlji nisu preduzimana ozbiljnija istraživanja, rezultati ispitivanja efikasnosti Ingelvac@ CircoFLEX vakcine proizvođača Boehringer Ingelheim, Ingelheim/Rhein, Germany, mogli bi predstavljati solidnu osnovu za eventualno uključivanje pomenute vakcine u tehnologiju preveniranja cirkovirusnih infekcija u našim zapatima svinja.Ogled je urađen na 900 prasadi podeljenih u 3 grupe po 300 prasadi. Prva grupa (A) vakcinisana je 15. dana života, druga (B) 21. dana , dok je treća grupa (C) bila kontrolna. Određivanje visine titra antitela specifičnih za PCV2 utvrđeno je indirektnom ELISA metodom.Na sam dan vakcinacije sva prasad su pokazala prisustvo antitela specifičnih za PCV2. Najveći titar antitela konstatovan je 7 dana nakon vakcinacije u grupi B i iznosio je 9,63, u grupi A 8,59, a u grupi C 7.33. Najniže prosečne vrednosti tira antitela kod vakcinisanih grupa utvrđene su 35. dana a najviše 90.dana nakon vakcinacije. U kontrolnoj grupi od momenta početka ogleda prosečan titar opada kontinuirano do 60. dana, nakon čega titar antitela speifičnih za PCV2 ima tendenciju rasta. Vakcinisana prasad imala su signifikanto veći prosečni dnevni prirast (+54g/dan kod A grupe i + 60g/dan kod Bgrupe), niži mortalitet (- 1.67% kod A grupe i - 2.67% kod B grupe) i niži procenat škartova ( A grupa -5.67% i B grupa -6%). u odnosu na kontrolnu grupu.Daleko bolji rezultati dobijeni su kod prasadi iz grupe B, pa bi vakcinacija prasadi 21. dana života imala nesumnjivu prednost u odnosu na vakcinaciju 15. dana života, sa napomenom da je 15. dana života daleko veći uticaj maternalnih antitela na stvaranje i na razvoj sopstvenog imunološkog odgovora prasadi nakon vakcinacije.U našim ispitivanjima konstatovani su povoljni efekti u svim fazama ogleda, te stoga primenjena vakcina zaslužuje da bude deo svakog zdravstvenog programa koji se primenjuje u proizvodnji kvalitetnih i zdravih svinja.
The aim of this research was to determine the effect of vaccination on the amount of antibody titers specific for PCV2, and to determine the effect of vaccination on characteristics of pig production, based on the observed class G antibody titers in piglets and fattener pigs.Immunoprophylaxis measures, that are still considered indispensable in this disease prevention have not been part of the control in our country, as opposed to a large number of vaccinated sows and piglets in the world. For this reason and the fact that significant researches are not undertaken in our country, the results of Ingelvac@ CircoFLEX vaccine efficiency testing of manufacturer Boehringer Ingelheim, Ingelheim/Rhein, Germany, could constitute a solid basis for the eventual inclusion of this vaccine in prevent tecnology of circovirus infections in our swine herds.The experiment was conducted on 900 piglets divided into 3 groups of 300 piglets. The first group (A) was vaccinated at 15 days old, the second (B) at 21 days old while the third group (C) was the control group. Determining the antibody titers specific for PCV2 was performed by an indirect ELISA method.On the day of vaccination, all pigs showed the presence of antibodies specific for PCV2. The highest antibody titer was found 7 days after vaccination in group B and was 9.63; in group A it was 8.59, while in group C the value was 7.33. The lowest values of antibody titers in vaccinated groups were found on 35th day and the highest on 90th day after vaccination. In the control group, from the moment the trial started, the average titer decreased continuously until the 60th day, after which the antibody titer specific for PCV2 tended to rise. Vaccinated piglets had significantly greater average daily weight gain (+54 g/day in group A; +60 g/day in group B), lower mortality (-1.67% in group A; -2.67% in group B) and a lower percentage of rejects (-5.67% group A; -6% group B) compared to the control group.Group B piglets attained the best results, so the vaccination of piglets at 21 days old would have an advantage compared to vaccination at 15 days old, although we note that at 15 days old, there is a far greater influence of maternal antibodies on the creation and development of immune responses in the piglets after vaccination.In our examinations the favorable effects at all stages of the experiment are ascertained, therefore applied vaccine deserves to be part of any health program which is applied in the production of high-quality and healthy pigs.

Profesionalnim vozačima osnovno zanimanje je upravljanje motornim vozilom. Izvođenje radnih zadatka podrazumeva stalnu napregnutost pažnje vezanu za vidne i zvučne podražaje koji se brzo smenjuju, što zahteva da vozač adekvatno i tačno reaguje na promene. Prijem informacija, obrada, donošenje odluke i izvršavanje motornog odgovora su procesi koji prate jedni druge i čine vreme percepcije-reakcije (VPR). Uslovi i zahtevi rada za profesionalne vozače su isti i za mlađe i starije radnike i povezani su sa velikom odgovornošću za ljudske živote i materijalna dobra, bez obzira na to što je poznato, da se radna sposobnost menja zbog prirodnog procesa starenja. Merenje i utvrđivanje vrednosti VPR je važan deo ispitivanja u okviru procene zdravstvene sposobnosti za bezbednu vožnju. Ciljevi: Utvrđivanje vrednosti VPR kod profesionalnih vozača i poređenje sa kontrolnom grupom. Ispitivanje uticaja starosti i vozačkog iskustva na VPR kod profesionalnih vozača. Materijal i metode : Ova studija procenjuje deo sposobnosti profesionalnih vozača merenjem VPR prostog i složenog, važnih za sigurnost u vožnji. Istraživanje je sprovedeno u vremenskom periodu od devet meseci i obuhvatilo je 548 ispitanika muškog pola, starosti od 21 do 65 godina. Eksperimentalnu grupu je činilo 278 ispitanika (profesionalni vozači), a kontrolnu 270 ispitanika kojima osnovno zanimanje nije profesionalna vožnja. Testiranje je izvedeno pomoću hardversko-softverskog sistema za određivanje vrednosti VPR na proste i složene audio-vizuelne podražaje. Merenja su sprovedena na tri nivoa težine zadatka: prosto VPR, i testovi složenog VPR na promenu pozicije podražaja i vrste boje. Rezultati: Utvrđene su značajno niže srednje vrednosti VPR na sva tri nivoa testiranja u grupi profesionalnih vozača u poređenju sa kontrolnom grupom. Utvrđena je pozitivna povezanost srednjih vrednosti VPR sa godinama života i dužinom profesionalnog vozačkog radnog staža na svim testovima u grupi profesionalnih vozača. Nisu utvrđene značajne razlike u procentu pogrešnih odgovora u odnosu na životno doba i dužinu vozačkog staža, što govori o pozitivnim efektima profesionalne prakse u vožnji. Nisu utvrđene značajne razlike srednjih vrednosti VPR kod vozača u gradskom ili međugradskom saobraćaju, kao i u odnosu na broj pređenih kilometara mesečno na svim testovima. Obeležja poput starosti (godine života), profesionalne prakse (iskustvo u godinama profesionalne vožnje), neke promene zdravstvenog stanja (postojanje bolesti ili drugih poremećaja) u grupi profesionalnih vozača pokazale su se kao prediktori sa značajnim nivoom povezanosti sa vrednostima VPR. Metodom višestruke regresione analize smo ispitali smo povezanost vrednosti VPR sa posmatranim prediktorima kada ih analiziramo zajedno uzimajući u obzir njihovu međusobnu interakciju. Regresioni model pokazuje kako skup posmatranih obeležja predviđa promene VPR. Zaključak: Utvrđene vrednosti i prediktivni model promena VPR profesionalnih vozača mogu biti korisni podaci u svakodnevnom radu zdravstvenim ustanovama koje procenjuju vozačku sposobnost, kako bi se identifikovali potencijalno rizični vozači sa višim vrednostima VPR, zamorenih i osoba sa početnim oštećenjima nervnog sistema, sklonih povredama u saobraćaju i na radu, u cilju prevencije saobraćajnih udesa i povreda, kao i osiguranja da vozači imaju sposobnosti neophodne za bezbednu vožnju. Utvrđene vrednosti VPR mogle bi naći primenu pri oceni radne sposobnosti i kod radnika na drugim zanimanjima gde se očekuje brza i tačna reakcija na određeni podražaj.
The term professional driver refers to people whose main occupation is driving a motor vehicle. Performing work tasks implies a constant strain of attention related to visual and audible stimuli that change quickly, which requires the driver to respond adequately and accurately to changes. Receiving information, processing, making a decision and executing a motor response are processes that accompany each other and make up the perception-reaction time (PRT). The working conditions and requirements for professional drivers are the same for both younger and older workers and are associated with great responsibility for human lives and material goods, regardless of the fact that it is known that working ability changes due to the natural aging process. Measuring and determining the value of PRT is an important part of testing as part of the assessment of health fitness for safe driving. Aims: Determination of PRT values in professional drivers and comparison with the control group. Examination of the effects of aging and driving experience on the PRT of professional drivers. Material and methods: This study assesses part of the ability of professional drivers by measuring simple and complex PRT important for driving safety. The study was conducted over a period of nine months and included 548 male respondents, aged 21 to 65 years. The experimental group consisted of 278 respondents (professional drivers), and the control group consisted of 270 respondents whose main occupation is not professional driving. Testing was performed using a hardware-software system to determine the value of PRT on simple and complex audio-visual stimuli. Measurements were carride out at three levels of task difficulty: simple PRT, and complex PRT tests to change stimuli position and color type. Results: Significantly lower PRT mean values were found at all three levels of testing in the group of professional drivers compared to the control group. A positive correlation was found between the mean PRT values with age and experience of professional driving on all tests in the group of professional drivers. No significant differences were found in the percentage of incorrect answers in relation to the age and driving experience, which shows the positive effects of professional driving practice. No significant differences were found in the mean PRT values on all tests for drivers in urban or interurban traffic and in relation to the number of kilometers per month. Individual characteristics as, aging, professional practice (experience in years of professional driving), changes in health status (existence of diseases or other disorders) in the group of professional drivers showed to be predictors with a significant level of correlation with PRT values. Using the method of multiple regression analysis, we examined the correlation of PRT values with the observed predictors when we analyze them together, taking into account their mutual interaction.The regression model shows how the set of observed features predicts changes in PRT. Conclusion: The determined values and the predictive model of changes PRT of professional drivers can be useful data in the daily work of health institutions that assess driving ability, in order to identify potentially risky drivers with higher PRT values,, tired and people with initial nervous system damage, prone to traffic injuries and at work, in order to prevent traffic accidents and injuries, as well as to ensure that drivers have the skills necessary for safe driving. The determined values of PRT could be used in the assessment of work ability and in workers in other occupations where a quick and accurate response to a particular stimulus is expected.

Při zadávání diplomové práce v rámci studia na Katedře dějin a didaktiky dějepisu Pedagogické fakulty Univerzity Karlovy v Praze jsem si zvolila téma "Hugo Bergmann, poštmistr, starosta a politik". První poznatky o této významné postavě regionálního a zároveň celonárodního charakteru jsem získala při studiu archiválií k mé předchozí práci v rámci Semináře k obecným dějinám. Zde jsem se zabývala situací v mém rodném městě - Brandýse nad Labem - na konci dvacátých a v první polovině třicátých let 20. století, přičemž jsem se soustředila zejména na brandýské školství. Jméno Hugo Bergmann bylo v archiváliích velmi často uvedeno a jeho osoba mne velmi zaujala. Jak jsem již zmínila, brandýský starosta Hugo Bergmann nebyl pouze postavou regionální, nýbrž i politikem a poslancem Československé strany socialistické. Poslancem Národního shromáždění republiky Československé byl zvolen celkem čtyřikrát a mandát vykonával mezi lety 1923 - 1938.

The purpose of this work is to introduce the subject of Epimeleia (care) as the necessary and fundamental premise of educational endeavours. The focus of these endeavours is not directed toward any fixed point but instead, driven by attention to and delight in the process. The outcome of this human experience in becoming, is absent of any goal, beyond that of a life well-led. Abstract Educators remain the most instrumental force toward the develop of the next generation of people, who will in turn be representative of the era to come. Rediscovering the fundamental purpose of the Educator is paramount toward a world of authenticity, fulfillment, and truth. Since the time of Socrates, care for the soul of mankind has been the course toward enlightenment. Through Anamnesis we emerge as we uncover the truth that was hidden. Over the millennia however, education has lost its way and become a means of control and manipulation. Teaching is predicated on the answer not the question. The world has become one of certainty and absolutism. The Educational Industrial complex is manufacturing people as tools toward their own end. Teachers are products of an Economic Zeitgeist that has designed the very foundations of their worldview. They have embraced the false logic of the scientific society however, there is hope....

The diploma thesis deals with the issue of the role of mayor in the bodies of a municipality. The main goal is a complex analysis of the mayor's rights and reposibilities to other municipal authorities. Despite the emphasis on the description of the current state is in the introductory part of the thesis described the historical development of the position of the mayjor and other municipal authorities. Further in the thesis is defined the function of each of the municipal authority. In the main part of thesis is first described the notion and function of the mayor, regardless of the other municipal authorities. After that, in the subchapters, is dealed with the position of the mayor in relation to indiviual organs and their interdependence. This position is not viewed only from the point of view of law, but also from the unlawful aspect of this relationship. In accordance with the stated goal is discussed a number of current issues such as the method of electing the mayor or requirements on the person or obligations stemming from the law on conflict of interests. For these questions, de lege ferenda solution is proposed here. Particularly for practice may be an interesting part about the mayor's responsibility and the related effort to educate mayors from the Union of Towns and Municipalities or...

The main objective of this thesis is to provide information about the legal status and activities of a municipality mayor.

The master's thesis "Direct election of mayors in the European experience" is dealing with the direct election of mayors, which is being used in more than a half of the European countries. The focus of the thesis is the trend and the impacts of the direct election of mayors. The purpose is to find out, if the direct election of mayors causes an increase in the voter's turnout, if there are cases of divided majorities under the direct election of mayors and if those are causing issues with the system functioning. Lastly, if the direct election of mayors is a trend which is going to spread into further countries. The first theoretical part deals with the phenomenon of the direct election of mayors, the leadership theories at the local level, typologies of local systems and brings a theoretical basis for the analysis of the voter turnout and divided majorities. The second part contains an overview of the European countries according to the direct or indirect method of voting for their mayors and also case studies of chosen countries. In the cases of England, Norway, Croatia, Poland, Italy, Austria and Germany the voter turnout, the frequency of divided majorities and the functioning of a system under divided majorities is analyzed. The analysis is based on the primary primary data, existing research and the...

The aim of the thesis: to capture the life of the Czech social democratic politician and former mayor of Pilsen, Luděk Pik, with a specific focus on his political activities in the city. This thesis also aims to understand and clarify Pik's relation to Pilsen and the relevance to his life, as well as his essential role in the history of this West Bohemian metropolis. Luděk Pik (18. 5. 1876 Prague - 19. 4. 1948 Pilsen) lived in Pilsen for almost five decades of his life (1901-1948), except the period during the Nazi occupation (1939- 1945). Since 1901 he worked in Pilsen for the Czechoslavonic Social Democratic Workers Party, where he quickly became the local party elite. At the end of the World War I he participated in the establishment of an independent Czechoslovak state. In 1919-1938 he served continuously as mayor of the city of Pilsen and significantly contributed to its modernization and development. He also sat in Cisleithanian and Czechoslovakian legislatures. After the Munich Treaty he was forced to stand down from his political status and was persecuted during the Nazi occupation. The post-war situation prevented his return to a public life. His memoirs and especially his literary works demonstrate his strong patriotic relation to this city. Luděk Pik represents, in modern history of...

The aim of the thesis is to analyse and assess discussions related to the implementation of the direct election of mayors, both in the Czech Republic and in selected European countries. The thesis compares the evolution and course of the discussions that precede the anchoring of direct election of mayors in five European countries, such as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the Federal Republic of Germany, Italy, Croatia, and Belgium-Walloon. It is particularly focused on the central motives leading towards the launch of discussion, main arguments included in the discussion, key actors, and the levels of the discussion. The crucial part of the thesis is devoted to the analysis of the discussion of possible implementation of directly elected mayors in the Czech Republic. The emphasis is put on the identification of individual platforms of the Czech political scene that intervene into the discussion. The thesis also highlights the attitude of key political parties, interest groups, and mayors, towards the question of the direct election. The Ministry of the Interior of the Czech Republic represents the principal mediator of the ongoing discussion. The thesis targets to answer the following questions. At which platforms the discussion about the eventual implementation of direct...

This master's thesis is devoted to the character of the interaction and negotiation about residential development between the municipality representatives and development companies, the key players in the suburban development. As the geographical area for the research were chosen selected municipalities in north-east hinterland of Prague. The theoretical part summarizes the institutional approach, residential suburbanization, spatial planning and the residential development. The practical part consists of the research itself. It was done as the qualitative analysis of the semi-structured interviews with the municipality representatives and development companies. The interviews are then evaluated on the basis of the theoretical thematic analysis. The interaction between developers and mayors is quite complicated because it represents the conflict of private and public interests. This leads to further negotiations. The character of the interaction and also the negotiations are more or less formed by various circumstances. In this thesis have been distinguished four types of interactions. These types differs in the conditions and requirements determination by the mayors and its fulfillment by the development companies. Keywords: suburbanization, spatial planning, developer, development project,...

The master thesis focuses on the role of mayors in community development in selected peripheral micro-regions of Košice region. These micro-regions represent two types of peripheral areas which were defined by the differences in quality of social and human capital in the region. These types were identified by analysis of the literature.

This thesis deals with a question of professionalization of election campaigns in second-order elections in Czech Republic and its impact on electoral costs and profits. Author of this work uses multidimensional CAMPROF index, authored by Rachel Gibson and Andrea Römmele, with which can be measured a degree of professionalization of election campaigns. The Index is adjusted for its use in a context of the regional elections in the Czech Republic and is being applied on election campaigns Starostové a nezávislí political movement in regional elections in 2016. The theory of second-order elections is used to adapt the index. We compare ten regional election campaigns of the Starostové a nezávislí political movement, and we try to answer the research question whether there is a clear link between the professionalization of election campaigns, their costs and profits.

Each of us lives in some municipality or at least in the cadastral district of some municipality. The council of each municipality deals daily with many issues connected with routine and visible operation of municipality. Unfortunately, sometimes it is necessary to be prepared to solve also the exceptional events or even crisis situations. The author aims to create the summarization which will resume the duties of mayors connected with crisis management and which will help the mayors with long examination of this issue. This thesis covers the Pilsen region because this is the author's home town. To create such a document, it is necessary to perform following operations. First of all, it is required to cover the whole theory of this issue which is laid down in several legislative documents collectively named "the Crisis Legislation". Processing of these legislative documents is performed to correspond to topic of this thesis and not to include the useless information beyond the frame of the topic. The name of the thesis is "Obligations of mayors at solution of emergency and crisis situations in Pilsen region". Indivisible part of dealing with exceptional event and crisis situation is also the preparation for its´ solving within period before occurrence of the exceptional event or crisis situation. This is also covered in processing of the legislative documents. The research part of this thesis focuses on knowledge of mayors to clarify the real need to create this summarization and also the required particularity of this document. This research was conducted by means of questionnaires containing fifteen questions. Five of them are YES/NO questions and the left ten questions are close-ended with one correct answer. The YES/NO (so called informative) questions and answers indicate whether the questionnaires were filled out by the mayors of either cities or villages, what are the sources of threat and several other information. The electronic form was filled out by 100 mayors of the total 501 municipalities of the Pilsen Region. To have the possibility to compare the results of mayors with other results, the same questionnaire in the paper form with only 10 close-ended questions with one correct answer was sent also to 50 laymen from the social environment of the author. On basis of these researches, following hypotheses were pronounced: H1 Mayors and chairmen in the Pilsen Region have the knowledge distributed close to Poisson distribution. H2 Laymen from social environment of the author have knowledge distributed close to normal distribution. H3 Mayors in the Pilsen Region have higher level of knowledge than the laymen from the social environment of the author. The H1 and H2 hypotheses were verified by the 2 test on the level of statistic relevance =0,05, whereas the H1 was refuted and the H2 was confirmed. The H3 hypothesis was then confirmed by the double-choice T-test. Each question of the questionnaire (inclusive the informative questions for mayors) was individually visualised in the diagram, which presents the percentual fruitfulness of mayors and of laymen. These diagrams show obviously that the majority of mayors who filled up the questionnaire, are the mayors of smaller municipalities. More than a half (63%) of these municipalities have less than 500 inhabitants. Large part of these mayors are probably mayors with a full-time employment. The results of mayors did not confirm the distribution of knowledge close to Poisson distribution and the total fruitfulness of mayors´ answers was 61%. This signifies that it is desirable to create this summarization rather as more detailed document with concentration on smaller municipalities and as a chart. The author believes that this summarization will be useful for the mayors.
