EVC , Martina. Ob anské postoje a participace ák v eské republice. Praha, 2011. 120 s. Diplomová práce (Mgr.) Univerzita Karlova, Fakulta sociálních v d, Institut sociologických studií. Katedra sociologie. Vedoucí diplomové práce PhDr. Ing. Petr Soukup. Abstract This thesis focuses on civic participation of Czech pupils in the realm of civil society. The main task is to find out which factors influence civic attitudes and engagement of youth in current society. There has been an increased interest in concept of civil society since the fall of Communist regimes in Central and Eastern Europe with respect to political, economic and social changes. These changes resulted in a need to rethink the content of civic and citizenship education. Firstly the author describes civil society as a context for civic participation with special emphasis on Czech civil society and then she deals with the theory of political socialization, which helps her to identify the key determinants of civic engagement. Family, school, peer groups and media are seen as the main agents of this socialization. Using data from the International Civic and Citizenship study the author concludes that context of schools and classrooms and motivation are the most important direct factors in civic engagement.

Bucvanová, Eliška ; Moree, Dana (advisor) ; Skovajsa, Marek (referee)
Eliška Bucvanová. Diplomová práce. Citizenship - Theoretical Bases and Teaching Practice ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH Weak civil society can be seen as a possible drawback of Czech democracy. One of the possible ways of building it is citizenship education provided within the compulsory school system. Citizenship is also the main subject of this work, which uses qualitative research methods to find out how the concept of "citizenship" is understood by teachers at a selected primary school, what information they provide to pupils on this subject and how. Since the scope of the paper would be insufficient, it does not intend to map the state of citizenship education in the Czech Republic: its aim is to find out how teachers approach the subject and whether their opinions coincide, and to compare their views with the information contained in literature. The results of the work show that the selected school is at a comparatively high level; however, the teachers' attitudes to citizenship education and its aims lack consistency and comprehensiveness and, also, the pupils' knowledge highly varies. This can be due to the fact that citizenship education has long been in need of an integrated approach and, very probably, also training opportunities for teachers that would help them develop their professional skills.

Brabcová, Olga ; Švec, Luboš (advisor) ; Litera, Bohuslav (referee)
Maters thesis People with undetermined citizenship the case of Estonia , describes the situation of the group of people who has no citizenship. The status of those people is described by chronological analysis of Estonian law and analysis of their socioeconomic position. They came to Estonia after the Second World War from different republics of USSR. When Estonian independence was renewed they had to adapt at new living conditions. Some of them are not successful. They did not get the automatic right to get Estonian citizenship. In Estonian law the main principal is the principal of state continuity. It means that immigrants have to naturalize.

Estonian law gives people with undetermined citizenship almost the same rights as to Estonian citizens the exceptions are active and passive right to vote to Parliament and the right to be elected to local councils.

Guluškinová, Cecílie ; Pavlíček, Václav (advisor) ; Hřebejk, Jiří (referee)
The constitutional presidantial decree no. 33/1945 Coll. and its meaning in the Czech republic law system. My interest in this topic woke up many media cases involved aristrocracy and major capital owners, who during the 2nd World War changed of the nationality and signed up for Germans, moreover participated in breaking down of Czechoslovakia. The aim of this thesis was trying to understand this period issue, with respect to historical and actual jurisprudence. These presidential decrees has always represented a symbol of national pride and glory for me, however, the major part of community associated them solely with deportation German minorities from Czechoslovakia. The reason for pride is the highest moral and professional standard of the political representation, who was able to create and establish oneself as government recognized as representative of Czech nation by most other states. This government, working in exile (contemporary in Englang), was headed by the president, Edvard Beneš, well known and respected by the whole world. This political compilation prepared conditions of post-war situation and reconstruction in Czechoslovakia in many fields. It should be higlighted, that the transfer of German and Hungarian minorities was not only problem of Czechoslovakia, but it had been done as a...
