Průběh a důsledky hospodářské krize v Německu

The diploma thesis deals with current economic crisis and its impacts on the Federal Republic of Germany while considering historical economic and political aspects. The thesis evaluates its impacts at both the federal and state level since it is based on the assumption about the uneven impacts on individual federal states. The assumption is derived from knowledge about the economic and political history of Germany in the second half of the 20th century which is described in the first chapter of the thesis. The second chapter includes an analysis of the current economic crisis and a description of its transfer to Europe. Finally, the last chapter analyzes 4 basic macroeconomic indicators - GDP, unemployment rate, balance of trade and inflation rate - and their performance during the crisis at different levels.
