Minor mothers in the Romani communities
Buzková, Alena ; Večerka, Kazimír (advisor) ; Víšek, Petr (referee)
The bachelor thesis "Minor mothers in the Romani communities" addresses the phenomenon of minor mothers in the traditional Romani community. More generally, the demographic behavior of the Romanies is analyzed, and discussed with respect to the overall demographic data valid for the population of the Czech Republic. This thesis and its conclusions are based on the author's own research performed in Poschlá, a suburb of the city of Vsetín. The Romani community in Vsetín is introduced, including notes on its history. It is pointed out that the community still exhibits remarkable respect to the outstanding role of the typical extended family structure, which significantly influences the demographic behavior of the community. The author also notes fundamental differences concerning the mean lifespan of the Romanies versus the majority population, by which the typical early timing and extension of the female reproduction period can be explained naturally. Such conclusions are justified by the author's own research dealing with three overlapping generations of the Romani mothers in Vsetín, with focus on their age at the time of their first delivery. The thesis also discusses various aspects of social work and its efficiency regarding the issues related to minor mothers and their families.

The outcome is a description of the available and planned services in the form of sheltered housing for persons with ASD.

The construction of the male role in Roma families in the context of social exclusion, in the statements of Roma men
Janůlková, Iva ; Víšek, Petr (referee)
This rigorous thesis deals with the construction of the male role in Romani families living in Czech socially excluded localities, using literature and data from narrative interviews. At the theoretical level, the thesis is based on a culturally determined construction of masculinity, which is primarily based on hegemonic masculinity according to Connell (2005). Methodologically, the research is conducted qualitatively with the aim of exploring how masculine roles are constructed in the Roma family in a context of social exclusion, where there appears to be little hope of developing hegemonic masculinity. The research has been conducted from July to October 2021, through narrative interviews with Roma men living in socially excluded settings. Seven respondents living in two localities participated in the research. There are thirteen socially excluded localities in Ostrava according to ASZ (2018). The respondents were interviewed about events in their lives, including their experiences and attitudes. Results of my research suggest that Roma men, who are living in socially excluded settings show signs of marginalised masculinity and that their masculinity is fundamentally influenced by two factors: the socially excluded environment and the family, which I defined in the theoretical part of the...

The thesis "Analysis of the Causes of Over-Indebtedness" consists of a detailed analysis of issues leading up to over-indebtedness. It also aims to point out the most serious consequences of over-indebtedness. The thesis brings attention to the relation between causes and effects which, in many cases, take the form of the opposite and vice versa. The boundary between cause and effect can often be indistinct, and it is essential to distinguish between the two in order to find a solution for an over-indebted client. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with the issue of a loss of income which may lead to over-indebtedness, draws attention to the important role of education in the area of financial literacy, and notes on the most serious consequences of over-indebtedness, which it sees in the loss of housing, homelessness, and other negative effects. The research part concentrates on a social group which belongs to one of the most threatened with social exclusion, welfare applicants. The research attempts to analyse their debt situation in relation to their age, education, housing, unemployment period, willingness to change their situation, and willingness to repay their debt.
