Jetelinová, Denisa ; Zemanová, Štěpánka (advisor) ; Trávníčková, Zuzana (referee)
The bachelor's thesis deals with the child marriages that occur mainly in the developing countries and their various causes and consequences. During such ceremonies is one or both of the betrothed is less than 18 years old. This work is divided into three chapters and its aim is to answer the question of whether or not children's weddings ultimately violate international standards to protect the rights of the child or not. The theoretical part provides the most important international declarations and conventions containing the rights of the child, published in the 20th century. The second chapter is devoted directly to discussing marriages of children; contained therein is their definition, and then further clarification of where they occur and what leads parents or guardians of children to marry them. The third chapter deals with the analysis of violations of international standards to protect the rights of the child, either directly or in connection with the impacts of weddings of teenagers on their lives.

The level of the legal conscience of pupils of chosen schools in the Tábor district in relation to the Convention on the Rights of the child.
STEHLÍKOVÁ, Hana
This bachelor thesis deals with the issue of children rights and awareness of the rights among students of secondary schools. The objective of the practical part was to determine the awareness of the Convention on the Rights of the Child among students of selected secondary schools, not only in respect to the existence of the legal document as such but also in respect to the content of the Convention. The results of the research conducted in selected secondary schools in the Tábor district have confirmed that the overall level of awareness among the students about their rights and about the content of the rights is not satisfactory. Therefore, also with regard to the fulfillment of Article 42 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, it is necessary to focus on improvement of awareness and knowledge of children rights among the general public, both in respect to an adult population and in respect to children. It mainly depends on the children and young people whether and how they understand their rights and whether they are able to take responsibility.

Convention on the Rights of the Child {--} Monitoring of Informedness in the Public
KOLÍNOVÁ, Eliška
Convention on the Rights of a Child came into being on November 20, 1989, when it was adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations Organisation (UNO). It became to be legally valid on September 2, 1990. On September 30, 1990 the world summit for children in New York took place and on this occasion, the then Czech and Slovak Federative Republic joined this Convention on the Rights of a Child. This international document in our country came into legal effect on Febr. 6, 1991. The children{\crq}s rights committee of UNO criticises the Czech Republic, that it informs insufficiently of the Convention on the Rights of a Child and for this reason the society does not know what rights this document contains. The target of the bachelor thesis is to find out if the Czech society is really insufficiently informed and if the pedagogues in the elementary school really inform their pupils on their rights sufficiently. The selected methodology was the questionnaire examination which was performed in the form of a questionnaire. 2 types of questionnaires were created, one of them for finding out to what extent the public is informed and the other one for pedagogues. The respondents of 2 towns were selected {--} Blatná and Strakonice, to be able to verify the hypothesis if the citizens of a larger town (Strakonice) are more informed than the citizens of a smaller town (Blatná). To establish if the pedagogues inform, the pedagogues of the Elementary School of Jan Amos Komenský in Blatná were addressed. I think the postulated targets of the thesis were met. The research confirmed all the hypotheses. The public is insufficiently informed. The extent of knowledge is lower in a small town than in a larger town. The pedagogues inform insufficiently the pupils about the Convention on the Rights of a Child. The recommendation following from this thesis is that the state should start to inform more the wide public. For this purpose the public education should be carried out by means of leaflets, talks of parents with their children, television spots and firsts of all the instructions of the rights of children, following from Convention on the Rights of a Child shall be involved obligatory into the teaching in elementary school.
