Mubeenová, Geti ; Novotný, Josef (advisor) ; Hons, Pavel (referee)
The following thesis focuses on the long-term consequences of Partition of India on a micro-level.

Additionally, feminist perspectives insight into how all three generations of the family understand and perceive topics important to the family's history, including how do they define 'home'.
