Legal Regulation of Prostitution in the Czech Republic
Chocholoušová, Karolína ; Vedral, Josef (advisor) ; Rajchl, Jiří (referee)
Legal Regulation of Prostitution in the Czech Republic Abstract Prostitution and questions about its legal framework have accompanied humanity since time immemorial. For many centuries periods of prohibition, when prostitution was banned and prosecuted, alternated with periods of regulation, when prostitution was allowed within the legal framework on the territory of the present-day Czech Republic. Since 1992 an abolitionist approach to prostitution has been in place, meaning that prostitution is neither prohibited nor expressly permitted by law. The only regulatory element in the current concept of abolitionism is the power of municipalities to issue generally binding by-laws to ensure local public order. Using by-laws, municipalities are allowed to regulate or even ban prostitution from local public grounds. Since the establishment of the independent Czech Republic, several proposals have emerged with the objective to "solve" abolitionism, demanding a change in the legal approach either towards repression or, more often, towards the creation of legal framework. However, none of them has yet been adopted. This is partly because there is no general agreement on what is the right "solution" and partly because the adoption of prostitution laws is not in accordance with the Czech Republic's obligations under...

Paid sex in Czech Republic - how to solve it by legislation?
Krejčová, Veronika ; Nekola, Martin (advisor) ; Čabanová, Bohumila (referee)
Diploma thesis "Paid sex in Czech republic - how to solve it by legislation?" deals with prostitution and the way it is considered by law. In this thesis I first focus on defining the subject by describing different types of prostitution and associated legislative attitudes both in Czech republic and abroad, which makes me understand the complexity of this issue and vast area that is influenced by it. Regarding this I also analyze the stakeholders platform realizing that various groups connected to this subject consider the key problem about prostitution being in different areas and they also demand diverse solutions. My other conclusion is that regarding legislation associated to prostitution we can find a crucial lack of proper cooperation with non governmental organizations that have the closest relationship with sex-workers. This could cause the legislation being disconnected from the reality and not being able to implement its key objectives. In the second part of analysis I focus on analyzing the variety of legislation attitudes towards prostitution - abolition, decriminalization and legalization and evaluate these alternatives by set of criteria regarding technical feasibility, economic possibility, political viability and administrative operability. As a result I suggest the forth...

Pastoral care for male and female prostitutes
Vorlová, Johana Miriam ; Vymětal, Mikuláš (advisor) ; Keřkovský, Pavel (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the pastoral care of people who engage in prostitution. In research interviews, which is the main tool of this research, the aim is to understand bio- psycho-socio-spiritual needs of these people. This thesis answers positively the question whether the spiritual care is something to enrich and saturate these people. Findings are that pastoration is benefical to people working in prostitution. There are opinions that pastoration should be focused on achieving clients' specific goals leading client away from prostitution. I find it inappropriate if this goal is maintained as a condition of help. Considering findings of this work, pastoration can be considered successful even if there is nothing more than opportunity for the client to be heard and accepted. The theoretical part is examining the role of prostitution in the Bible. The question of stigma is another important aspect of this research to be considered. The Bible research findings show ambiguity in this topic. I believe that this work will bring understanding of situations and motivations of people working in prostitution. I also believe that this work will contribute in bigger openness of churches towards this group of people.
