Dopady transformace z centrálně plánované ekonomiky na tržní hospodářství v nových spolkových zemích a v České republice se zaměřením na pracovní trh

The bachelor's thesis deals with the evaluation of the impact of the transformation from a centrally planned economy to a market economy in the new federal states in comparison with the Czech Republic. This thesis aims to evaluate whether the transition to a market economy had different or identical impacts on the labor market in both compared territorial units. The work is divided into three chapters. In the first chapter, I deal with economic restructuring in general, i.e., the situation on the compared labor markets and the structure of sectors in the economy before and after the transformation. The second chapter is devoted to the institutional environment affecting the labor market. In this part of my thesis, I describe the policy on the labor market, privatization, and education on the job. In the last chapter, I analyzed the causes of the different impacts of restructuring on the labor markets in the new federal states compared to the Czech Republic. Statistical sources and professional literature enabled me to define the factors that caused the different situations in the compared labor markets. Specifically, it was labor mobility, monetary policy, differences in the area of wages, but also differences in the number of companies in the insolvency or different numbers of natural persons doing business. In the monitored period, all these factors contributed to the different development of unemployment in the new federal states compared to the Czech Republic. On the contrary, I noticed a similar development in the period of transformation in the compared countries in terms of employment in individual sectors of the economy and the field of education.
