Deaths in the Psychiatric hospital Kateřinky in 1911-1925 Abstract This bachelor thesis deals with mentally ill people who died in Psychiatric hospital in Prague at the beginning of the 20th century. The aim of the thesis was to analyse the structures of the dead in the Psychiatric hospital Kateřinky in 1911-1925. The analysis was built mainly based on data from register of the dead 1911-1925. Austrian statistics and the Demographic Yearbook were used to compare the structure of the dead in Psychiatric hospital with structures of the dead in Bohemia. Structures of the dead were analysed by common statistical, demographic and geographical procedures, in terms of gender and age, marital status, social status, place of birth, place of residence, diagnoses (causes of death), length of hospital stay and seasonality of death. From the results of the analyses, it was found that the structure of dead in the institute is very specific from the population of the dead in Bohemia in all aspects examined. Keywords: Kateřinky, madhouse, structure of the dead, derangement, register, World War I.

The population in the Central Bohemian manor of Škvorec from the middle of the 18th to the end of the 19th century. Abstract The aim of this study is to analyze the reproductive behavior (nuptiality, natality, female and male fertility, mortality) and the social structure of selected groups of the population of the Škvorec manor in the 18th and 19th century. The Škvorec manor which is located in the territory of today's Central Bohemia was an important agricultural area in given period. The complete nominal excerpts from parish registers were used to find numbers of all births, marriages and deaths. In addition to traditional historical- demography methods (especially the family reconstitution method and subsequent calculation of demographic indicators from family leaves), advanced statistical methods (survival analysis, Cox regression model) were also used for data analysis. These approaches are new in Czech historical demography and bring many advantages, which are presented in the work. The natural change of population development at the manor is compared with the Czech lands as a whole and in more detail with selected rural and urban localities. The results mostly correspond with the population development which was observed in the Czech lands. The number of inhabitants of the manor in the years...

The Hajnal line in contemporary Europe
Chráska, Miroslav ; Kurtinová, Olga (advisor) ; Velková, Alice (referee)
The master's thesis deals with answer of distribution of countries, which was determined in 1965 in the theoretical concept by John Hajnal, in contemporary Europe. The main aim was to reanalyze the original division of countries using cluster analysis on the basis demographic indicators: average age at first marriage men and women, the average age of a woman at first child birth, the number of divorces per 100 marriages, the proportion of live births in marriage and out of marriage. The data used came from the Eurostat database from 1990 to 2015. Cluster analyzes of European countries were also performed according to the value orientations of their inhabitants in the area of social relations and life expectations. Respondents' statements came from the European Social Survey from 2002 to 2018. Cluster analysis of selected demographic indicators did not confirm two models of Hajnal's concept of marital behavior. Cluster analyzes of respondents' value orientations confirmed the existence of two value approaches to life priorities - a preference for traditionally accepted values and a preference for a dynamic and efficient lifestyle. Keywords Hajnal line, family, marriage, divorce rate, ESS research project, K-means cluster analysis, values

Vondrášek, Martin ; Hulíková Tesárková, Klára (advisor) ; Velková, Alice (referee)
Possibilities of demography implementation in the classes at higher secondary education level Abstract The main goals of the diploma thesis are to evaluate the degree of implementation and the potential of demography during lessons at the higher secondary school level and to suggest specific activities that can be implemented within the lessons. It is the first thesis aimed solely at the didactics of demography. The work uses publicly available online databases of the Czech Statistical Office, the United Nations and the Population Reference Bureau. An analysis of syllabi of subjects from the first years of selected universities, a content analysis of selected secondary school textbooks and a Framework Education Programme were performed. The analyses show a large scope for the implementation of demography not only in the teaching of geography. The work is complemented by specific proposals of activities that can be used in teaching at upper secondary schools. Keywords: Czechia, demography, teaching demography, implementation, upper secondary schools, textbook analysis, Framework Education Programme

Nováková, Iveta ; Fialová, Ludmila (advisor) ; Velková, Alice (referee)
Population development in the political district of Kutná Hora in the period of 1880-1910 Abstract This bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of population development in the political district of Kutna Hora during years 1880-1910. The political district of Kutna Hora was divided in two judicial districts - Kutna Hora and Uhlirske Janovice. The area of Kutna Hora belonged to the Czech regions where changes of ongoing demographic revolution were implemented very soon. This was thanks to the district town where more job opportunities in industry and services occurred. The judicial district of Uhlirske Janovice belonged to the regions oriented more on agriculture. Handcraft and glass industry were traditional for the villages in this region. Keywords: Population development, structure of population, Historical demography, Political District of Kutna Hora, Birthrate, Mortality, Marriage rate, Population increase

Bozděch, Lukáš ; Fialová, Ludmila (advisor) ; Maur, Eduard (referee) ; Velková, Alice (referee)
Changes in reproductive behaviour in the beginning of the demographic revolution (example of Staňkov) Abstract The aim of this study is to analyse reproductive behaviour of population in the Czech lands in the 19th century, a period in which demographic revolution began. The research is based on data from Staňkov, a town in southwestern Bohemia, which, unlike the majority of adjacent region, experienced a substantial industrialization in the 19th century. This resulted in a significant population growth during the analysed period. Family lists were compiled from the registers of births, marriages and deaths using the method of family reconstitution. Nuptiality, marital fertility and infant mortality were the main analysed topics. Population was also divided into groups based on social stratification and these groups were analysed to determine, whether their reproductive behaviour differed from each other. The results from Staňkov were compared to other previously studied localities in the Czech lands. This study revealed that in the 19th century changes in reproductive behaviour within social groups were quite small or negligible. Big changes in nuptiality, fertility or infant mortality in the beginning of demographic revolution can therefore be mainly attributed to the shifts in the social structure of the...

The population of the city Liberec and its structures based on the List of subordinates according to the faith (1651) Abstract The main aim of my study was to analyze in detail the population of the town Liberec according to the List of subordinates according to the faith from 1651. I have described the family and household typology, including heads of households, as well as demographic indicators and catholic religion of inhabitants. Next, I was also dealing with the issue of servants and house lodgers and their inclusion in the family structure. To analyze the population of the city of Liberec in 1651, I used common statistical and demographic procedures. By analyzing and comparing the inhabitants of Liberec with other towns and villages, the town of Liberec in 1651 was found to be different. The city of Liberec was different from other cities and villages in almost all the examined factors. The exception is the typology of families, which retain its typical form throughout Western Europe. Keywords: the family and household typology, servants, house lodgers, catholic religion
