The paper deals with the analysis of labour market in the Czech Republic with respect to unemployment considering other countries of EU and existing economic development. Evaluation has been carried out of the specific development of labour market, employment and unemployment in the Czech Republic in the period 1993–2008, incl. possible causes and trends of the development and international comparison of selected characteristics of labour market using adequate quantitative methods. Analysis of the Czech labour market during the period of its existence includes the eva­lua­tion of supply and demand in the labour market. The most important causes were monitored of changes in the supply in the labour market affected by the demographic development and social environment and substantial causes of changes in the demand in the labour market, which were affected by the performance of the given economics, by the growth of labour productivity and the number of available jobs. This is followed by assessing the development of unemployment in the Czech Republic and European Union. Substantial aspects were identified of the development of labour market and unemployment in the Czech Republic and EU as a whole and trends of the future development were indicated in the studied area. The international comparison of selected characteristics of labour market in the member countries of EU carried out by means of quantitative methods allowed to assess high differences among unemployment rates in this community and created another information source regarding the position of the Czech Republic in the European Union during the selected reference period. Significant differences in unemployment between all member countries point out to marked structural or institutional differences in labour markets in particular countries. Only a negligible percentage out of the total economically active population in the European Union migrates over the border of its member countries. This situation only augments a durable long-term unemployment growth in particular countries. Beside the insufficient labour force movement throughout Europe a next important problem in structural unemployment presents e.g., the incongruity in qualifications between supply and demand on the labour market. The current financial and economic crisis has cut at all previous positive unemployment development during a few months.

Agrarian Structure

The main objective of the study was a comparative analysis of the diversity of the agrarian structure and the productivity of land and labour in the Visegrad Group countries. Additionally, the importance of the Visegrad Group in the European Union was analysed in relation to the size of the production of selected crops and livestock as well as the population and cast of cattle and pigs. According to the conducted analyses, the highest productivity of land among the countries of the Visegrad Group was shown in the years under study by Poland and Hungary (over EUR 600 / ha AL), while the highest dynamics of the growth rate of this parameter - by Slovakia (almost two-fold increase in 2010-2013). Taking into account labour productivity, it should be emphasized, that the greatest labour productivity characterized farms in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Wheat Production

The report compares costs of wheat production in the European Union and selected world producers. International comparison of wheat production costs has been prepared on the basis of the results of an international network of Agri benchmark Cash Crop for the years 2010–2012, which is organized by Johan Heinrich von Thünen – Institute (VTi) in Germany. Czech Republic is since the year 2008 an official member this network and is represented by the Institute of Agricultural Economics and Information (hereinafter IAEI). The results for the Czech Republic, which are then shared with other participating countries (institutions), are based upon the special investigation of IAEI. International comparison is based on typical farms taking into account regional structure of produced crops, technological and operating procedures, utilization of inputs, size of a farm, and other specifications. The concept of international comparisons is based on the (so called) “typical farms”, which take into account the typical size and structure, the area of market crops, technology and work practices, use of inputs and their quantity, production and other requirements of agricultural production characteristic of the given issues. Production costs are structured as direct and operating. Overall economy evaluations of wheat production also include effect of subventions. The position of the Czech Republic within the European Union is also discussed.

The Eu

The article examines the benefits and risks of the euro adoption for the Czech Republic. In the last decade, in the light of structural problems of the economic and monetary union of the European Union and the Czech euroscepticism that has intensified against this background, the problem has become more of political nature and one of burning issues in relations between the Czech Republic and the EU. The paper analyzes the benefits and risks of such a decision. Special attention is paid to political factors – starting from the possible membership in the EMU institutions and ending with the potential overall improvement of relations with the leading countries of the EU. The authors conclude that from an economic point of view, the eurozone membership is beneficial for the Czech Republic if the level of labour productivity increases before the adoption. However, this issue presents the problem of the overall geopolitical orientation of the Czech Republic, which has to choose between striving to get into the «core» of the integration or the relentless defense of its national sovereignty within the European Union.

Poverty Threshold

The paper presents chosen indicators of poverty and labour market in new member countries of the European Union. The new member countries could participate in the open coordination of policy against poverty and social exclusion from the first day of membership. The poverty level in new member countries was almost on the same level as in the "old" members but the poverty threshold was much lower in new members. The biggest sphere of poverty was in Estonia and Lithuania (over 16%), the lowest-in the Czech Republic and Hungary (about 10%). The main cause of poverty in all of the member countries was unemployment, especially persistent.
