Danish attitude to immigration and its impact on foreign policy
Novotná, Markéta ; Veselý, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Krines, Vlastimil (referee)
The freedom of movement is a human right concept that has always been confronted with some form of state regulation. I will focus on the international dimension of migration, especially immigration, which will be analyzed first on a general level and then on the example of Denmark. As this small European state is a typical activist in the field of human rights and a frequent participant in the humanitarian missions, one would say the Danish immigration policy can serve as an ideal example. However, this may not be true. My aim is to analyze the membership of Denmark in various international organizations dealing with immigration, EU in particular. Then, the relationship between the immigrants and Danish foreign policy with focus on Muslims will be considered. My research shows that the tendency of Denmark to restrict her immigration policy is a result of global development and has deep historical roots.

Assimilation of mulsims in the Netherlands
Adamcová, Jana ; Novotná, Yvona (advisor) ; Druláková, Radka (referee)
The Netherlands is a country well known for it's deep tradition of toleration, freedom of speech and safety. It has provided a shelter to many oppressed people already since 16. century. Only the german occupation could stop this tradition for a while. This tradition, however, seems to be turning against the whole country. The Netherlands is now officially acknowledged to be an immigrant country and represents a popular destination of immigration for many different people from many different places. To prevent the inevitable impacts that mass immigration has on a society, the dutch government has been trying to develop the most efficient immigration and integration policy already since 1970s. The dutch integration policy changed throughout the past decades a lot. In 1980s and 1990s the main course of the integration policy was represented by the theory of multiculturalism which turned into individual integration in the begining of new millenium. This thesis analyses and evaluates the individual integration policy and it's effect on integration of muslims into the dutch society, as the muslims are considered to be the most problematic group of immigrants in the country.

Head scarf law as an example of solving the multiculturalism in France
Suchá, Martina ; Soběhart, Radek (advisor) ; Stellner, František (referee)
My Bachelor's work" Head scarf law as an example of solving the multiculturalism in France" dwells on the current integrative and immigratory policy of one of the most numerous religious minorities -- the Muslims. The demographic emergence is briefly defined and a key French vocable Laicité is interpreted in the text below too. The merits of my work are in a detailed analysis of the Islamic head scarf problem and its wearing related multicultural conflicts. Such French major concerns led to a legislative adjustment of Laicism Act in 2004. President Sarkozy's opinion on the above mentioned Act and a brief view of Islamic chapels' fabrication problems are parts of my work as well.
