Analysis of effects on local development of subsidies provided to municipalities

The purpose of the thesis is to analyse subsidies system of municipalities in Czech Republic. The thesis examines needs and development of municipalities in the context with their financing. The theoretical part defines the basic terms relating to municipal revenues with orientation on subsidies. Furthemore, it analyzes and evaluates possibilities of acquiring of subsidies and their subsequent usage. In the process of obtaining these financial resources procedural requirements and some principles must be complied. Due usage of subsudies is controlled afterwards. Folowing part of my thesis on the base of analysis and comparison of a few concrete municipalities with different size provides information on methods that municipalities use to obtain subsidies, how effective they are in using them, whether the subsidies are sufficient and how they affect needs and development of municipalities. In the conclusion my thesis evaluates whether bigger municipalities, in comparison with smaller ones, are more succesful in aquiring of subsidies and what is the effect of this successfulness on the standard of provided services by municipalities that are different in size and whether this standard of publicly provided services is identical
