Who divorces whom: unilateral divorce legislation and the educational structure of marriage
Afunts, Geghetsik ; Jurajda, Štěpán
There is evidence that the introduction of unilateral divorce legislation (UDL) starting in the late 1960s increased US divorce rates. We ask whether making divorce easier affected the educational structure of marriage. Based on marriage and divorce certificate data covering 1970-1988, we provide new evidence on the evolution of the educational structure of marriage inflows (newlyweds) and outflows (divorces), and estimate UDL difference-in-differences effects on both flows. While UDL did not contribute to rising homogamy (the tendency towards married partners having the same level of education), it did affect the educational structure of marriage: it made generally unstable hypogamous couples (women marrying less educated partners) less likely to divorce, and it made homogamous couples more stable than hypergamous ones (women marrying more educated partners).

After obtaining the necessary data, the interviews were transcribed and then evaluated by means of cluster analysis. The research has revealed that parenthood is for today's young adults the embodiment of love, a new relationship is developed and experiences are transferred to a new generation, a person acquires a vision for the future, sees the success of his/her child in the growth of his/her life. Today's young people perceive marriage from a purely practical point of view, especially in easier communication in the authorities. Individuals of the young generation stated that it is not essential for them that the child be born into a marriage, they consider much more important the fact that the child grow up in a complete family. The research also showed that today's young adults have a positive attitude towards alternative forms of cohabitation.

Attitudes of Students of University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice to planning parenthood
SOUKUPOVÁ, Edita
The Master's thesis deals with the issue of family planning among full-time male and female students of the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice. It examines their attitudes towards family planning and aims to determine the differences in views between men and women. The thesis is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part includes graphs that show the development of aggregative and final fertility, birth rate, marriage and divorce rates. It also explains some important terms related to demography, family, parenthood and gender. Furthermore, it describes different modern forms of cohabitation. The practical part was carried out in the form of quantitative research; a method of questioning was used to collect the desired data. Data for hypothesis testing was gathered using a questionnaire technique. The questionnaire was distributed to male and female students of the University of South Bohemia via the study departments of individual faculties during February 2020. The questionnaire survey examined the attitudes of male and female students towards family planning and marriage as well as their attitudes to family policy. Microsoft Excel 2007 was used to process the obtained data, and STATISTICA EN 13 was employed to test the established hypothesis. Two hypothesis were formulated. Hypothesis 1: "More than half of the full-time male and female students at the University of South Bohemia would like to become parents." This hypothesis was confirmed based on the quantitative research. Most male and female students at the University of South Bohemia do plan to have children. Hypothesis 2: "Full-time female students at the University of South Bohemia plan to have more children than full-time male students." This hypothesis was disproved. The results of testing this hypothesis showed that there is no significant difference between men and women studying full-time at the University of South Bohemia regarding the number of children they plan to have. The results show that, although male and female students at the University of South Bohemia currently focus mainly on their studies, parenthood is important to them and they would like to become parents in the future. Furthermore, the results indicate that there is no difference between male and female students at the University of South Bohemia regarding the number of children they plan to have in the future.

Views of primary school teachers on unmarried cohabitation
HLAVÍNOVÁ, Bára
The aim of the bachelor's thesis is to find out how primary school teachers perceive unmarried cohabitation in general and how they perceive alternative forms of family ties in their pupils. The thesis consists of two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part defines the basic concepts related to family, marriage and unmarried cohabitation. The practical part presents the results of qualitative research, which is carried out in the form of interviews. The main research question is: What are the effects of unmarried cohabitation on the child that educators anticipate and what are they not? The research group consists of primary school teachers. The results of the research showed that primary school teachers do not condemn unmarried cohabitation, but most support the traditional model of family organization. Teachers agree that if the family creates feelings of security, security, belonging and loving relationships for the child, it is no longer decisive in which union the partners live. Furthermore, the results of the research showed that according to teachers, unmarried cohabitation can have an effect on the child, especially on a child of older school age. According to educators, unmarried cohabitation has an effect on the psyche, there is a worsening of benefits and educational problems. A child of younger school age is not even aware of the unmarried cohabitation of his parents and does not have a negative effect on him in terms of harmonious cohabitation.

Stolleová, Nela ; Hendrychová, Michaela (advisor) ; Šustek, Petr (referee)
Comparison of Czech and Slovak regulation of legal consequences of the dissolution of marriage The topic of the diploma thesis is the legal consequences of the dissolution of marriage. The consequences of the dissolution of marriage are examined in two legal regulations, Czech and Slovak, and at the same time compared. The individual ways of marriage dissolution are discussed on an ongoing basis. The work consists of an introduction, five chapters, which are further divided into subchapters, and a conclusion. The first chapter deals with the concept of marriage, its purpose, functions and obligations, and the rights arising from it. The second chapter deals with the historical development of the legal regulation of the dissolution of marriage. Both in the territory of today's Czech Republic and the territory of today's Slovak Republic, from the 18th century to the current legal status. It is not without interest that while for a long time the two legal regulations were separated from each other, ie they were completely different, a relatively long period of joint legal development followed, so that after the division of the Czechoslovakia the two legal regulations diverged again. Every dissolution of marriage necessarily has certain legal consequences, which differ to some extent precisely...

Hejduková, Lucie ; Tuček, Milan (advisor) ; Wirthová, Jitka (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the attitudes of religious and non-religious high school students towards the possible marriage of same-sex couples. The theoretical part focuses on the process of emancipation of homosexuals up to the present, when the discussion of this issue is a current topic both in society and in the political sphere. The respondents' openness to homosexual marriage is viewed, among other things, through the lens of their religious beliefs. The research group consists of six male and female students of Prague grammar schools, of which three respondents are Christian and three are non-religious. In the form of a semi-structured interview, the study finds out to what extent the respondents are open to the legalization of gay marriage, whether they agree with using the term marriage also for same- sex couples, and what role their religious beliefs play in their opinion on the issue. The results of the study show that five out of six interviewed respondents see the lack of registered partnership as unequal rights compared to the institution of marriage. All religious respondents comment on the nature of homosexuality and the need to increase the rights of homosexual couples. They justify their attitudes due to the influence of the Christian upbringing that was provided to them in the...
