Comparative study of legislation and impact of social economic factors in prostitution problems of The Czech Republic and Austria.
HÝSEK, Václav
Abstract The theoretical framework of this thesis aims to analyze in a deeper way the matter of prostitution, pointing out to the present situation of this social matter in the Czech Republic as well as the connected or closely related criminality. Within the context of prostitution, general terms are specified along with the forms of prostitution, including the new so called ``laufhäuser{\crqq} (through house), present legal regulations and the impact of prostitution on the Czech economy. Furthermore, the health aspects of prostitution are also marginally dealt with. The subject of the thesis is ``Comparative Study of the Legislation and Impact of the Social and Economic Factors in the Matter of Prostitution in the Czech Republic and Austria{\crqq}. The main objective of the thesis research was to answer the research question - whether the present legislation concerning the legal regulations of prostitution is more favourable in Austria. Directed interviews were chosen as the research method, carried out with the members of the Czech Republic{\crq}s Police, who deal with the issue of prostitution on a daily basis within their job responsibilities and are aware of the problems connected with prostitution in the Czech Republic as well as the neighbouring states, Austria - Upper Austria in particular. The selected sample of police employees unambiguously confirmed that adopting a prostitution act similar to the present one in Austria would be of a benefit not only for the police, but for society itself. Should we relate to the present state of prostitution in the Czech Republic and problems connected, it can only be stated that the only effective and system solution for the future is to adopt an individual prostitution act. Prostitution cannot be wiped out in society, as long as the demand for and supply of these services exist; however it can be successfully rectified. Prostitution has never been and is not an accidental and sporadic phenomenon; it is and will be exercised in any political system, often even in spite of severe repression.

The Reasons for prostitution in South Bohemia Region
DOSCHKO, Václav
The Bachelor{\crq}s thesis deals with prostitution issues in the South Bohemian region and its development through the secondary and content analysis of data gained from the Czech Republic police, from the Management of South Bohemia. The prostitution accompanies the humankind the all time of its being. It is possible to define it in this way: Everybody who has sex or carries out an activity for purpose of sexual satisfaction for a consideration or in order to gain certain advantage or interest, without emotional attitude and without regard to the choice of a partner, commits the prostitution. Before the year 1990 there was the prostitution in a latent form in the Czech Republic, as a part of shadow economy. The repression was the only form of its regulation, which went out from the Penal Law No. 140/1961 Coll. Article 203 on Sponging; on its basis the prostitutes who had no employment were inflicted. In 1990 the Offense Act No. 150/1991 Coll. was repealed due to the amendment of the Act No. 140/1961 Coll., the Act No. 175/1990 Coll., and the Article 203 of the Penal Law on Sponging. These legal acts are in addition to the opened borders, foreign tourism boom and stratification of Czech citizens in connection with the enormous extension of publicly and hidden practiced prostitution in the Czech Republic. The aim of the thesis is to inform the reader about general facts concerning the prostitution. Further it should point out the social-pathological aspect of the problem. During my writing I got from the available literature, other sources were dossiers from the Czech Republic police, the Management of South Bohemia and the invaluable experience of its executives. According to the gained and processed information the numbers of prostitutes are being reduced {--} the prostitution in the South Bohemian region is decreasing. The hypothesis was confirmed.

The investigated complex of respondents was in the age range from 15 years to 71 years. The research was performed in the towns as well as smaller municipalities concerned by the issue of prostitution. The information was provided for what purposes the questionnaires will be utilized and that the evaluation will be anonymous. One of the goals was monitoring the prostitution (erotic clubs), directly in the Český Krumlov District, acquiring information in what way the prostitution is regulated by individual municipalities and finding out, how the prostitution in the municipality is perceived by the citizens. The first hypothesis was to find out if the municipalities issue the directives of public order regulating prostitution. And if these Directives are cancelled by the Constitutional Court. This hypothesis was refuted during the investigation. And the second hypothesis was that the inhabitants consider the regulating measures for the prostitution as insufficient. This hypothesis was confirmed. The thesis may be utilised as incentive for the changes in legislation and attitude of municipalities to this issue, or extension of measures of individual municipalities.
