Taking the skill bias out of global migration
No full textGlobal migration is heavily skill-biased, with tertiary-educated workers being four times more likely to migrate than workers with a lower education. In this paper, we quantify the global impact of this skill bias in migration. Based on a quantitative multi-country model with trade, remittances and human capital externalities, we compare the current world to a counterfactual with the same number of migrants, where all migrants are neutrally selected from their countries of origin. The skill bias in migration increases welfare in virtually all OECD countries, while the effects on non-OECD countries are more subtle. They are negative in many countries but positive in countries where migration-based externalities are strong. We find the global effect of the skill-bias to be unambiguously positive

Quaint Fantasy. Apprehension of Michal Ajvaz as an Author of Magical Realism
No full textThe thesis deals with a question if it is appropriate to consider Czech writer Michal Ajvaz to be an author of magical realism. His fiction usually incorporates supernatural objects or events into a natural fictional world just as in the fiction of magical realism. The thesis analyses the nature of magic motifs and events in the studied literature, as well as literary techniques, which are used to achieve this specific kind of poetics. By examination of the canonical works of magical realism, such as the novel One Hundred Years of Solitude by G. G. Márquez, The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende or the novel Midnight Children by S. Rushdie, we can specify the structure of this literary genre and compare it to the texts of Michal Ajvaz. In a survey, we focus on two Ajvaz's early novels - the fantastic one The Other City (1993) and the philosophical prose The Golden Age (2001). KEYWORDS Michal Ajvaz, magical realism, magic realism, postmodernism, The Other City, The Golden Ag
Poetics of affectivity by Michal Tallo
No full textMichal Tallo belongs to the young generation reviving certain aspects of anesthetic poetics, which formed in Slovak poetry at the beginning of the 1990s. Anesthetic procedures are directly related to the observed aspect of emotionality in Tallo‘s work. The paper follows the male lyrical heroes from the collections Antimita (Anti-intimacy) (2016), Δ [Delta] (Delta) (2018), Kniha tmy (The Book of Darkness) (2021), and the male characters of the short story Futbal (Football) from the book Všetko je v poriadku, všade je láska (All is well, there is love everywhere) (2024). The paper focuses primarily on one element of Michal Tallo poetics, which is called "admitted affectivity." Affectivity proves specific characteristics of the author\u27s work, which oscillate between the two extreme positions of suppressing and releasing emotions.Michal Tallo belongs to the young generation reviving certain aspects of anesthetic poetics, which formed in Slovak poetry at the beginning of the 1990s.

Legal and Financial Problems of International Joint Custody of Children
No full textThe aim of this article is to analyze very interesting and currently up-to-date area of children living in international joint custody from the legal and financial point of view. This covers the situation when custody of a child is awarded to both parents living in different states of the European Union (or also other states). The number of marriages contracted between Czech nationals and foreign nationals and also between nationals from two different states (not necessarily inside European Union) increases every year while free movement of people is a real practice today. Because these international marriages are becoming more common they bring new problems that must be solved by contemporary law. This regulation needs to result from the knowledge of the children psychology that is affecting family law the most but also has its practical aspects in the area of taxation and payment issues that will be analyzed deeply as well.juridical problems, financial problems, international joint custody, family.
Počítačová hra typu online strategie pro více hráčů v mřížce
No full textTitle: Grid-based Online Multiplayer Strategy Game Author: Michal Fibich Department: Department of Software and Computer Science Education Supervisor: Mgr. Jakub Gemrot, Ph.D., Department of Software and Computer Science Education Abstract: Playing a massively multi-player on-line real-time strategy game is connected with expectation of playing with other players close to your position in the game. Some games of this kind have a very long life cycle where the progress of each player is persistent. A match can take months, even years to finish. However, every match is very dependent on the amount of participants which is not always ideal. Different seasons of the year can cause massive drops in the amount of players. There have already been attempts to incorporate an artificial intelligence to these matches, but the goal was to provide a win condi- tion instead of fighting a decreasing player base. That is why we have started developing a framework which includes the basic mechanics of the game and al- lows customization of basic game elements such as units, resources, buildings or entire nations. Part of the framework is an artificial intelligence which is capable of playing games created using the framework along with players. The problem was to find a proper behaviour for the artificial intelligence that...Názov Práce: Počítačová hra typu online stratégia pre viac hráčov v mriežke Autor: Michal Fibich Katedra: Katedra Softwaru a Výuky Informatiky Vedúci bakalárskej práce: Mgr. Jakub Gemrot, Ph.D., Katedra Softwaru a Výuky Informatiky Abstrakt: Hranie online real-time stregických hier pre vel'ké množstvo hráčov je spojené s očakávaním, že hra bude súčasne hraná s viacerými hráčmi súčasne, ktorí sa nachádzajú v blízkosti pozície hráča. Niektoré hry tohto typu sú špecifické svojím vel'mi dlhým životným cyklom, v ktorom je postup jednotlivých hráčov v hre trvalý. Jedno kolo hry môže trvat' týždne, mesiace, až roky. Avšak, každé kolo je závislé od počtu zúčastnených hráčov. Tento počet nemusí byt' vždy ideálny. Rôzne ročné obdobia môžu spôsobit' vel'ký pokles počtu hráčov prítomných v hernom svete. V niektorých hrách sme sa už stretli s pokusmi zakomponovat' umelú inteligenciu do týchto herných svetov, avšak ciel'om bolo poskytnút' vít'aznú podmienku pre h'račov, miesto toho, aby sa jednalo o pokus znížit' dôsledky po- klesu aktívnych hráčov. Preto sme začali pracovat' na frameworku, ktorý ob- sahuje základné mechaniky týchto hier a dovol'uje prispôsobovanie základných prvkov hry ako sú bojové jednotky,...Katedra softwaru a výuky informatikyDepartment of Software and Computer Science EducationFaculty of Mathematics and PhysicsMatematicko-fyzikální fakult
