Determination of Paternity
Joštic Mrlinová, Barbora ; Hendrychová, Michaela (advisor) ; Šustek, Petr (referee)
With the estabilishment of paternity sooner or later encountered almost every one of us. Although the paternity law and estabilishment of paternity is already known from the times of ancient Rome, it remains a relevant and contentious topic. The aim of this thesis is to comprehensively explore and explain the establishment and denial of paternity in the Czech legal system. The thesis is divided into eight chapters. The first chapter deals with the conceptualization of family and parenthood. It is necessary, because the current Civil Code contains these concepts. However, it does not define them. To further develop the thesis, it is therefore crucial to specify, what exactly those concepts mean within the Czech legal system. The first part of this chapter examines in detail the concept of family, in the second part is dealt with parenthood. In this context, it is illuminated exclusively legal parenthood and disputes between legal, biological and social parenthood. The second chapter focuses on the history of establishment and denial of parentage from the time of ancient Rome, through the period of General Civil Code (1811), the Law on the Right to Family (1949) to the Law on Family (1963). The second chapter is also divided into two sections, namely the historical development and establishing...

View of rurality in Czech and Polish prose in 1960s (interpretation of selected literary works)
Bramborová, Marcela ; Poslední, Petr (advisor) ; Holý, Jiří (referee)
The subject matter of this thesis is the presentation of a typology of rural imagery based on a thematic and interpretative analysis of Polish and Czech literary texts from the 1960s with respect to the ongoing changes made to the original romantic-realist concept of the rural novel. The analysis of specific literary works (Sekyra by Ludvík Vaculík, Smuteční slavnost by Eva Kantůrková, and Čas kopřiv by Josef Knap from Czech literature, and, from Polish literature, Opadaný sad by Wiesław Myśliwski, the novels Na slunci by Julian Kawalec and … až budeš králem, až budeš katem… by Tadeusz Nowak) permits us to create a basic register of elements of rural narrativity which, however, Czech and Polish literatures have different perspectives on. Through this dichotomy we present typical narratives contained in the Czech and Polish rural novel of the given period. The subsequent interpretative analysis of the texts takes inspiration from contemporary narratology with special attention to the narrator and time categories, and by extension to the interplay of these categories with individual themes, symbols and topoi.

Determination of paternity
Jiroutová, Michaela ; Salač, Josef (advisor) ; Švestka, Jiří (referee)
The reason why I chose the issue of determination of paternity as a topic of my thesis is the fact that most of us will meet with this institute during our lifetime. The aim of this thesis is to analyze and describe the institute of determination of paternity, especially in the view of the applicable legislation. The thesis is composed of eight chapters. Chapter One deals with family and parenthood and defines the basic terms, sucha as the biological, social and legal parenthood. Chapter Two is subdivided into two parts and focuses on the legislation of paternity. Part One describes the historical development of parenthood, part Two briefly describes the source of law witch contains the current legislation. The next chapter concerns the determination of maternity, which is closely connected to the institute of paternity. Chapter Three, apart from the applicable legislation, also includes a subchapter about hidden birth and a subchapter that documents surrogacy. The following chapter already concentrates on the current Czech legislation of determination of paternity, which is included in the civil code. This chapter consists of six parts that closely describe various possibilities of determination of paternity in the Czech republic. I particularly focus on the assumption of paternity that there is a...

Compatibility of opinions on parenting in couples
Hurychová, Alice ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Šprincová, Veronika (referee)
The aim of this study is to compare views on parenting of partners (from a gender perspective) in families caring for children. Changes in women's position in society, their increasing financial contribution to the family budget and therefore economic background influence the opinions about the overall organization of family life, which is reflected in the actual division of parental roles and associated responsibilities. Although the paper focuses primarily on the opinions and ideas about parenting, I did not fail to devote some space also their subsequent practice. Close interaction of people who share a household and raising children, can result in blindness, which in turn creates the feeling of certain conformity of opinion. Parents can sometimes mistakenly believe that their views on parenthood are shared by their partners. In the research I have included ten couples raising two or more children. For the chosen method of semi-structured interviews, I selected respondents from my circle of acquaintances. The choice was quite deliberate, as with many of them I knew for a long time. Therefore I have had an opportunity to watch some of their educational practices or behaviors, and wondered whether their views correspond to their actions. An important aspect when examining the similarities or...

Nováková, Alena ; Angelovská, Olga (advisor) ; Vlčková, Kamila (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to examine the phenomenon of active fatherhood and the influence of an engaged father on raising a child. I am interested in sociological view on parenthood and stereotypes of male and female roles. But my major interest lies in a phenomenon that has been developing in last several years not only in the Czech Republic, but also abroad - and this phenomenon is active fatherhood. I will pay attention to historical development of fatherhood and a positive impact a father has on his child. In the empirical part of my paper I analyze the research called Forms of fatherhood in the CR (Podoby otcovství v ČR); in this part I try to describe opinions of current fathers on active fatherhood and determine whether the father - provider and mother - caretaker stereotypes still exist in society. The practical part is based on results of a qualitative survey, comprising of an analysis of semi-structured interviews with fathers from two generations, who are relatives (fathers - sons). The aim of my bachelor thesis is to find whether the opinions on active fatherhood have changed over generations.
