Právní a ekonomické aspekty fiskálního paktu

This diploma thesis analyzes the newly adopted EU treaty known as the fiscal pact. Its consequences are in addition to another the transfer of competences to the supranational level in the area of fiscal policy, also setting a new fiscal criteria, compliance with which must be enforced by the threat of imposing a sanction. It is this criterion is given a crucial part of the work, which raises a number of mainly methodological problems associated with this indicator. Based on the results of the economic analysis is not this "soft" indicator considered relevant in assessing the question of budgetary discipline of member countries, and I therefore propose alternative concepts of rules in the area of fiscal policy, which in my opinion could have a greater effect. At the legal level, I deal with the question of the appropriateness of accepting a contract from the perspective of the Czech Republic. There also do not consider the adoption of a treaty by the Czech Republic as advantageous because its only effect is a transfer of competencies and limitation of sovereignty member states in favor of supranational institutions.
