Kubíková, Marie ; Janský, Petr (advisor) ; Břízová, Pavla (referee)
The thesis aims at quantifying the potential fiscal gains of an extra investment into Roma education. From the budgetary point of view, it would pay off to invest extra money into Roma children, if it increased future net contributions to the budget. The extra investment into one child could take values up to the average discounted value of future net benefits per person. The net benefits represent the increased net contributions due to a higher level of education. The contribution of the thesis is the estimation of different net contributions of Roma with various educational levels to the national budget in order to encourage the investment into Roma children. Secondly, we estimated the yearly loss of the national budget due to lower education among the Roma. And thirdly, we conducted a survey among the clients of the endowment fund Verda to find the relationship between their education, employment status and other variables.

The use of the theory of social work at work with the Roma minority
STAHLOVÁ, Zuzana
The aim of this study is to explore whether social workers use theoretical concepts while working with the Roma minority. The research used a qualitative research method. Data collection was performed using of intentional (purposeful) selection. Qualitative data were obtained by interview with using the instructions. The research group was selected from a group of social workers assigned by the target group with which they work. This group consists of six social workers who work primarily with the Roma minority in southern Bohemia. To achieve this objective we established research question: Do the social worker use theoretical concepts while working with the Roma minority? If so, what and how, if not, what they use instead? Data were analyzed using cluster method. This method is used to group certain statements in groups, according to the resolution of certain issues. The results implies that only half of the communication partners uses a theoretical approaches. From the discussions it is clear that only two of them are using them consciously. They most frequently use tasks oriented approach and client-oriented approach. One communication partner even mentioned anti-discriminating approach. Most social workers agreed that they use their own judgment in their work. Self judgment is meant empathy, intuitiveness and more. Furthermore, communication partners mentioned findings, which can be used. It is very important to have mutual trust when working with the Roma minority. Academic teaching Romani would also be good to facilitate communication between the social worker and the target group. It would also be appropriate to concentrate knowledge about social work with the Roma minority into one comprehensive publication. This thesis can serve as a basis for further elaboration of this theme.

BŘEČKOVÁ, Gabriela
This diploma thesis is focused on identifying the image of excluded localities in media discourse. During the recent few years, the media have been forming the views of the majority population of the Roma minority, while the concept of social exclusion in the Czech Republic has been used most often in relation to the localities inhabited mostly by the members of the Roma minority. Excluded localities have become a very hot topic in the media and the media have been presenting excluded localities as problematic in terms of unemployment, poverty, maximum use of social welfare by their inhabitants, housing problems, crime, organized crime, disorder and problems with school attendance of the children.
