The rights and duties of self-employed persons working in the European Union with regarding to social securement.
TOMANOVÁ, Leona
The Bachelor thesis deals with the rights and obligations of self-employed persons working within the European Union with a focus on social security. The thesis is divided into two parts. The first part is theoretical and the second one is empirical. In the theoretical part, the basic facts about the rights and duties of self-employed migrants in social security are presented, that are summarized using available literature and current legislation. These systems are constantly changing and therefore the information only relates to the current state. In the empirical part, the goal was to find information about self-employed persons about their duties and rights when moving within the European Union with a focus on social security. The research part was performed by a qualitative research strategy and through a semi-structured interview. The results are processed by groups and they are graphically displayed using tables. The communication partners were chosen by the method of effective selection. Ten migrant self-employed person were chosen. The research has highlighted the importance of self-employed persons being introduced to their social security rights and obligations in the European Union, not only because of their better information, but also because the number of self-employed persons in more states of the European Union is steadily rising. In mapping the legal awareness of the self-employed, it turned out that only half of the respondents were able to refer to most of the questions asked. The results of the work could be beneficial for students in social sciences and for working persons who come into contact with this issue.

The Attitudes of Students of Czech Universities to Refugees
SOUKUPOVÁ, Edita
The Bachelor's thesis deals with the issue of refugees and current attitudes of Czech university students, male and female, towards this issue. The thesis is divided into a theoretical part which is elaborated on the basis of reference sources and defines important terms that are necessary for proper understanding of the issue. This part aims to clarify the issue of refugees. It also addresses important Czech and international legislation on this topic. Furthermore, it deals with what refugees are going through when they arrive in the destination country. The practical part is elaborated in the form of quantitative research with the use of questionnaire technique. The questionnaire investigates the opinions and attitudes of Czech male and female university students to refugees and the current migration crisis and what factors influence these attitudes. The data was obtained through a questionnaire distributed electronically to respondents for 20 days during February 2017. A canonical corresponding analysis (CCA) was carried out using Canoco 5 programme to process the data. The questionnaire was sent to male and female university students in the Czech Republic. Participation was voluntary and anonymous. In the introduction, respondents were informed that the questionnaire would be used for research purposes only as part of a Bachelor's thesis. They were also informed about the Bachelor's thesis. Questions were formulated to show what the attitudes are of Czech male and female university students towards refugees. Questions were asked to discover whether the students were willing to accept refugees in the Czech Republic, provide assistance to them, and whether they were worried about refugees. It was also important for the research whether they were well informed about important terms such as "refugee" and "migrant". The following hypothesis was formulated: "Students of Czech universities who are already working and living on their own have a friendly attitude towards refugees." This hypothesis was confirmed in the quantitative research. Students who are not financially supported by their parents during their studies would accept refugees in the Czech Republic and provide them with some help. Moreover, they are not worried about refugees and are interested in the current migration crisis. The second hypothesis was formulated as follows: "Students of Czech universities who have studied abroad have a friendly attitude towards refugees." This hypothesis was also confirmed in the quantitative research. Students who have studied abroad as part of their studies would accept refugees in the Czech Republic, provide them with some help, they are not worried about refugees and are interested in the current migration crisis.

Connecting the Intercultural worker to the social services system
Erdenebat, Otgon-Erdene ; Nová, Monika (advisor) ; Čedík, Miloslav (referee)
v anglickém jazyce My thesis deals with the problematics of intercultural work with migrants, i. e. with foreigners who live here legally, and with its role in the system of social services in the Czech Republic. Because the position of an intercultural worker is comparatively new in our milieu, I concentrated first on the description of the work and the definition of the kinds of problems that the worker may face, and only then on the specification of the goals of intercultural work as such. Drawing on my personal experience with the work, I then tried to describe competences and role of an intercultural worker with respect to his or her involvement in the system of social services. I also conducted an opinion poll among the intercultural workers and their institution. This topic is now quite current and I hope that my work will help improve the situation in this field.

KOSÁČKOVÁ, Jitka
The aim of this bachelor thesis was to assess the current state of the readiness of non-governmental organisations in South Bohemia concerning the preparation for handling larger groups of refugees. Moreover, the thesis determines the expected number of volunteers and inhabitants of South Bohemia willing to participate in activities aiming to help the refugees. The first part deals with the basic groups of non-governmental organisations distinguished by our legal code. The description of these groups focuses primarily on the general characteristics. An important chapter addresses the definition of the term Association of Non-Governmental Organisations in South Bohemia. Subsequently, the respective organisations united there are described in more detail. The last part of the theoretical background of the thesis is concerned with migration policy, the security aspects connected with migration, and the organisations working with refugees on the international level. To fulfil the aim No.1 "To review the readiness of non-governmental organisations in South Bohemia concerning the preparation for handling larger groups of refugees" and to answer the research question "What is the current state of readiness of non-governmental organisations in South Bohemia concerning the preparation for handling larger groups of refugees?", the method of qualitative research was employed. The research used the method of structured interviews with the responsible representatives of the NGOs united in the Association of NGOs in South Bohemia. To fulfil the aim No.2 "To determine the expected number of volunteers and inhabitants of South Bohemia willing to participate in activities aiming to help the refugees": The results demonstrated unequivocally that the organisation best prepared as far as the material and personnel viewpoint is concerned was the Czech Red Cross. Other organisations can provide material security or qualified psychological aid depending on their speciality. The results proved that the current state of the readiness of NGOs concerning the powers, tools and activities meets the requirements for providing help to a larger group of refugees on condition that the NGOs in The Association of Non-Governmental Organisations in South Bohemia cooperate. The questionnaire survey showed that fifty percent out of 284 respondents are willing to participate in activities aiming to help the refugees, which confirms the original hypothesis.

Migration and its social construction in approaches of political parties in the Chamber of Deputies in the Czech Republic
Burešová, Zdeňka ; Novotný, Vilém (advisor) ; Jelínková, Marie (referee)
Migration is a phenomenon which has strong impact on the Czech Republic. The Czech Republic is currently under transformation from transit country to immigration country. At the present time the situation is even more complicated because of the migrant crises which impact all of us. I suppose that the Members of Parliament will create social constructions or narratives about migrants during the sitting of parliament. I aim to identify social constructions of migrants that are created by the Czech political parties represented in the Chamber of Deputies since the 2013 election. I will divide social construction into two main groups. Ones belong to migrants and the other ones to refugees. I would like to find out if there are more positive or negative social constructions and how are benefits and punishments distributed to these groups. I would like to discover key narratives of particular political negotiation as well. Theoretical background of this thesis is the social construction of target population theory of Anne Schneider and Helen Ingram. In the manner of Lina Newton's article "It is not a question of being anti-immigrant: Categories of deservedness in immigration policy making", I will use a combination of discursive and narrative analysis as the main method. I will analyse statements and...
