dc.description.abstracteng	This thesis treats the placement of clitics in Czech from a constraint-based perspective. After having established the set of unambiguous second-position clitics in the language, the placement patterns and their interaction with information-structurally induced movements are described. Based on this data, it is argued that Czech clitics cannot occupy a fixed syntactic position. Instead, conflicting constraints lead to varying output positions depending on the syntactic context. Since Czech clitics do not require a prosodic host, these constraints refer only to syntactic domains. The analysis is extended to further Slavic languages, including Serbo-Croatian. It is shown how the constraint-based approach can be applied to this language, where prosodic domains do play a role for clitic placement.	de
