The Long Road to Dignified Status: The Contribution of Applied Ethics to the Research of the Roma Holocaust Eighty Years After the Events
Viková, Lada ; Pinc, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Soukupová, Blanka (referee) ; Moravcová, Mirjam (referee)
This dissertation is based on three case studies of selected families of the original Romani inhabitants of the Czech Republic who were affected by the Roma Holocaust. It contributes to the detection of ethically sensitive aspects in the background of the coexistence of Roma with non-Roma environments in the Czech lands and at the same time to capture the risks associated with this research. The main tool of thinking is the concept of human dignity. The work pursues the two following main goals. Firstly, through historical-genealogical research, the project resulted in the reconstruction of the history of these families since their arrival in the territory of Moravia, through the process of their settlement and the gradual transformation of their ways of life, especially in the interwar period.

Mental mapping and participant observation constitute additional methods. The focal point of the project lies not only in the collection of interviews and mental maps with the cottagers, but mainly in further analysing and interpreting the collected data. The thesis also focuses on the historical development of cottaging from the 19th century to the present. Looking for the reasons and motivations that have contributed to the development and popularity of cottaging and how these motivations have changed is an important point. In her work, the author focuses on sharing the premises of the cottage with relatives and on the performance of specific work and leisure-time activities. Among other things, the author concludes that the presumption that the opening of the borders after the fall of the Iron Curtain and the possibility of travelling abroad would result in a decline in...
