Over the last twenty years, people in the Czech Republic have been growing better informed, and at the same time, the diagnosing of this disorder has become more exact.

Another goal of this thesis therefore is to determine the number of people with ASD in the age group of adolescents and young adults. Additional goal is to reflect on the state's preparedness in the area of fulfilling the rights of people with autism spectrum disorder to be provided available and appropriate housing.

Space as a socially constructed form of oppression: the transformation of an asylum for women with mental handicap in the Usti Region
Růžičková, Kamila ; Kolářová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Ezzeddine, Petra (referee)
In my thesis I deal with the representations of mental handicap in the Czech context. The theoretical base I found in the field of disability studies and its model of disability, which I have enriched with the approaches of poststructuralist authors and also with the Czech authors who see the mental handicap from a different perspective than the "majority society". The representation of mental handicap in the Czech context I show at the example of a home for people with disabilities, specifically for the mentally disabled women, which is located in the Usti Region. This institution is involved in the project called The support of planning the transformation of social services in the Usti Region. In the thesis I deal with the issue how are these planning changes communicated with clients and what connotations are given to the planned change of living space. In the empirici section, I talk through the semi-structured interviews with five woman clients of the institution and ask them about their current life. Then I analyze the types of spaces Theky mentioned. Their questions are completed with an interview with the manager of the institution, who talks about the motives that led to the transformation process. Keywords disability, client, citizenship, human rights, space, gender, social service,...
