Information in the social sphere for the citizens jeopardized by a social exclusion
FICHTNEROVÁ, Eva
The research of my bachelor work was focused on the issue how much are information necessary and interesting for the people jeopardized by a social exclusion, if they properly get to them and if they have the right form. There is a lot of information in the social sphere and they are important for all of us. From the questionnaires I gave to the people in the sanctuary House of St. Paul and in the streets of České Budějovice I received many answers significant for the knowledge of our community and for my job in public relations with Městská charita České Budějovice (a charitable non-governmental organization). In theoretical part of my work I described general causes and specific problems associated with the life of the excluded citizens, especially their difficulties with the employment, health state, problems with information and communication barriers with organizations and institutions, examples of their excluded or homeless life, possibilities how to return to the common life. In relation to the social services I stated some fundamental legislature. In the practical part I concentrated on the question of a passing and preferred forms of information among them. Answers I got brought me to improvements even in my job (for example a better marking to the sanctuary house from the railway station, maps on the web sites with a marking of the way and the bus stop, more brochures with information in the railway station). I learned that homeless people would be very glad to obtain some knowledge in the field of information technologies and I recommended Internet courses for them. I realized, that all the people living in the street, are interested in information and the most essential way, how to provide information to them, is a street-work.

Conditions of Life of Families Living on Social Allowances in the Long Term
BERANOVÁ, Kateřina
This thesis for baccalaureate is dealing, theoretically and practically, with issues of the living conditions of families living on social allowances in the long term. The objective of the thesis was to describe the conditions of life of a selected sample of families living in dependence on the state system of the social protection focused on the social conditions of life of the families. A partial objective was to appreciate possible relationship of conditions of life of the families and the occurrence of social pathological effects and criminal activities in these families. I used the method of a concerned observation and a guided interview with the quality research. The observation was carried out in the course of visits to families and interviews with individual family members. The interviews focused on several pre-determined topics. From the data obtained from observations and interviews with the families members, I drew up four case studies. The comparison of case studies that followed proved a relationship between the lives of families depending on the financial support of the state and occurrence of the negative phenomena such as criminal activities and drug addiction. These phenomena produce a negative effect on interpersonal relations in families, contribute to psychological and emotional devastation of their members and impair the functions of the family as a whole. It is also possible to state that the surveyed families live on the conditions of income scarcity due to a low financial support of the state. It results in a certain degree of insulation of the families from their social surroundings. The criminal activities and social pathological phenomena still increase the social insulation of the families. The families attempt to resolve a number of the problems of their existence, mainly those of housing and employment. These problems are resolved by themselves or with some assistance of the broader family. For various reasons, these attempts tend to be unsuccessful. Therefore, they are left to the support of the external that is currently insufficient.

The poverty in opinions of young people
ČERNÁ, Jana
The poverty is a very comprehensive and complicated concept and it is considered to be behind one of the most serious problems of the globalized world today. Poverty can be conceptualized as an expression of extreme disparity because it distances specific sections of the population not only from the rich, but also from the rest of the population. At present, world disparity and poverty continue to grow and the split between wealth and poverty grows both globally and on a national scale. This thesis is divided into two parts {--} theoretical and practical. The theoretical part limits itself to looking at basic terms e.g. poverty from a global perspective, types of poverty, its monitoring and measurement, disparity, unemployment, population groups at risk of poverty and social exclusion. The influence of social transfers in connection with poverty is also highlighted in the work. On the basis of the defined hypothesis other marginally mentioned key topics are included. These concern life values and the perceptions of young people, as well as the discrepancy between men and women in the biological, psychological and social fields. The thrust of the thesis was to ascertain the perception of poverty in the minds of young people. The research was carried out at selected schools through the use of anonymous questionnaires. Each questionnaire contained ten questions. The results of the research are presented in the chapter "Results" which forms the practical part of the thesis.

KAISERŠOT, František
My thesis named {\clqq}How to survive on the street {--} life strategy of the St Paul´s House occupants`` is devided into two parts, namely into a practical and a theoretical part. In the theoretical part I am concerned with defining of the notion displaced person. The St Paul´s House occupants are mostly individuals in an oppressive social situaton who have lost their homes or lodging. The following chapters map out the life-strategy reasons of the individuals without home, touch the source of origin of the fastidious situation and of the connected mechanism used by the individuals on the streets for surpassing or lessening the impacts of their actual situation. In the practical part I am dealing with description of particular services in the St Paul´s House and with the characteristics of its occupants. The St Paul´s House is a non-state unprofitable organization, which goal is to provide the social services for the individuals in anoppressive situaton, namely to the individuals without home or shelter. As a constituent of the practical part there is a research. It deals with the problems of employment of the St Paul´s House occupants, namely with the variety of the job chosen by the occupants. The problems the St Paul´s House occupants have to encounter are frequently very complicated, the occupant is supported to a self-dependent solution and the result is closely associated with the steps which the individual performs for his survival.
