Political Aspects of Migration in Czech Republic and in Slovakia
Štefančík, Radoslav ; Klíma, Michal (advisor) ; Horváth, Július (referee) ; Drbohlav, Dušan (referee) ; Romancov, Michael (referee)
The central hypothesis of this dissertation is based on the finding that, like in the countries of Western Europe under the influence of various circumstances, in the Czech Republic, too, there is a shift from the originally proclaimed multicultural concept of integration towards individual civic integration. The objective of the treatise is not only to verify the anticipated trend in the development of the migration policy, but also to seek causes of its modification. The formulation of a hypothesis that would apply equally to the Czech Republic and Slovakia was more complicated. While the formation of migration policies in the area of integration of immigrants into an autochthonous society enjoys a longer tradition in the Czech Republic -- also due to the higher number of immigrants -- in Slovakia it is in its beginnings so far. Even some of the recently adopted outcomes of public policy proclaimed the objective to implement the multicultural dimension vis-a-vis foreigners. The actual policies, however, bore witness to a completely different approach. The core hypothesis of this treatise has thus been complemented by a subhypothesis relating to the conditions of Slovakia: the multicultural dimension of the approach to immigrants in the past only existed at a theoretical level, and only partially. Given the recent adoption of the concept of integration policy, which is not based on the principles of multiculturalism, references to it represent a residual manifestation of the preceding non-systematic treatment of migration and integration in the outcomes of public policy. In real life, several steps hindering the application of this model's principles have been undertaken. Content analysis and diachronic comparative method applied on the documents under review show that there is a change occurring in the Czech Republic in the area of immigration policies. Whereas prior to the financial crisis the government would willingly employ foreigners, the impact of the crisis has led it to a restrictive immigration policy. Demonstrated was also a content shift in the approach to the integration of foreigners. As regards the formation of Slovak migration policies, the process of policy development proved to be more complicated to follow. Public policies in the area of migration and integration of foreigners since 2009 and the stance of the governmental bodies towards them have been largely indifferent. The Czech Republic clearly displays, over the course of the past several years, a shift from the communitarian/multicultural model toward the individual civic integration. The command of the language is considered to be the main vehicle of integration. The Slovak Republic declared multiculturalism only as a remnant of the non-systematic treatment of integration policies, with virtually nothing changing in the real life of immigrants. There had been practically no integration policy in Slovakia up to 2009. Similarly to the outcomes of public policies, the shift in the perspectives on migration away from multiculturalism has occurred in the political programs of Czech political parties as well. The issue of migration in Slovakia has so far not affected election campaigning. Slovak political parties do not have a clear idea of the possibilities of related to the integration of immigrants.

Analysis of measures to reduce illegal migration in the European Union and their impact on the Czech Republic
Žilová, Šárka ; Gráf, Václav (advisor) ; Doležalová, Antonie (referee)
This bachelor thesis responds to the situation incurred over the last two decades, when member states of the European Union, facing an influx of illegal migrants from third countries, have sought to confront this issue on both transnational and national levels. Through analysing European Union's legislative measures to persecute illegal migration and through recognising the results of alternative solutions applied under the respective national jurisdictions, the thesis concludes that a gradual liberalization of legal immigration seems to be a more appropriate instrument in tackling illegal migration than any restrictive measures. Consequently, recommendations are formulated from the obtained results, specifying how to improve the issue of illegal migration in the Czech Republic.

The central theme of my thesis is the topic of legal labor migration in the Czech Republic after 1989, focusing on the period after 2004, specifically to changes in immigration policy after the Czech Republic into the European Union. In a brief theoretical introduction, I examine the very concept of migration and its historical trends, divided into several time periods. Then in my thesis I deal with the issue of illegal migration, updated the concept of integration of foreigners and the project for an active migration policy, Green cards. Before examining the pilot project Selection of Qualified Foreign Workers, which is main part of all my thesis, I will briefly describe the conditions and modalities under which foreigners can legally work in the Czech Republic. The core of my work is to introduce a pilot project, initially on a theoretical basis, followed by the actual analysis, including a complete analysis of the target country and project participants. At the end of my thesis I make a brief summary of the project and assess its achievements.

Regularization of illegal migration
Smrčinová, Zuzana ; Druláková, Radka (advisor) ; Abrhám, Josef (referee)
This thesis introduces the phenomenon of illegal migration and the ways of its solution. This thesis focuses on the way of regularization or legalization of the illegal status of the foreigner already residing in the state. In the thesis, the meaning of regularization is presented and an analysis of the three european countries with regularization experience is made. The experience of these three countries can be an inspiration for Czech Republic which has been facing the phenomenon of illegal migration for a short time and refuses the regularization at this moment. At the end of this thesis, there are some proposals on what the Czech republic should concern about before the debates about the regularization. The thesis deals also with the conditions under which the regularization would be meaningful if the Czech Republic considers it.

Lorencovičová, Jana ; Kadeřábková, Jaroslava (advisor)
This thesis describes individual national minorities living on the territory of Czech Republic, under which conditions they can enter the Czech territory and live here and integration process of minorities to the Czech majority society. Each of those minority groups is characteristic by different values, culture, language, color of the skin, religion, and lifestyle and by the ability to adapt new world for them. This integration process is a long-term process and depends also on the Czech society, how those minorities will identify with Czech territory. Already on elementary schools students are getting to know variety of cultures through multicultural education that is trying to build a sense for respecting different cultures and esprit de corps in them. Citizens of Czech society living in abroad are finding a support in allowance organizations called Czech centers, which work also for representing Czech Republic in a lot of countries.
