Financování předvolebních kampaní v ČR - volby do Evropského parlamentu 2014

Bachelor thesis focuses on the topic of financing of election campaigns in the Czech Republic for the European Parliament elections 2014. It mainly deals with the evaluation of transparency of campaigns of individual political parties/movements and with analysis of their incomes and expenditures. In the work I seek an answer to two main questions. The first one concerns transparent accounts and their potential influence on improvement of transparent environment in the election campaign of the elections to the European Parliament. The second one addresses expenses of political parties/movements during the election campaign, specifically for what items political parties and movements spend the most. In the Czech Republic currently does not exist a statutory obligation for setting up of transparent accounts for political parties/movements. Transparency is unfortunately not guaranteed even for the political entities that voluntarily establish a transparent account. These parties/movements may also have other opaque accounts that are not publicly traceable and verifiable.
