Key words: Mongolian female migrants in the Czech Republic, gender, migration, transnational motherhood, remmitences, social network, work Abstract In my diploma thesis I primarily focus on a situation of Mongolian women in the course of their labour migration into the Czech Republic. I addressed 20 women, who are (or have been until recently) transnational mothers living together and working in a factory in North Bohemia, Czech Republic, for my research purposes. Regardless the fact whether these women are married or divorced, single mothers or widows, it also connects them that they all may be considered breadwinners of their families. I was as well interested in what their decision was to leave Mongolia for the Czech Republic in order to get a job - I focused on both personal situation and general conditions in current Mongolia. My research deals with three main topics. Transnational motherhood is the first topic I deal with, in what I pay attention to what is the women's attitude to cope with their new role as well as what emphasis they place on it. Social networks issues and their usage in migration is firmly connected to this topic so that I also look into the way my participants use of these social networks together with the way these networks work. My last topic is a key motive of Mongolian women's...

Transnationalism and integration: The case of Mongolians in Prague
Šlauerová, Veronika ; Drbohlav, Dušan (advisor) ; Siwek, Tadeusz (referee)
Mongolian migration to the Czech Republic has had a long tradition, since the beginning of a former political regime. Nowadays, there are more than six thousand Mongolian immigrants living on the Czech territory, nonetheless, we lack more valuable research done on integration of this minority. At the same time the Czech society is not very well aware of this number of foreigners of Mongolian origin and they are more often assumed to be Vietnamese or Chinese. Since the early 1990s, studies on transnationalism have explored the empirical patterns of migrants' transnational practices and observed whether they coexist with indicators of integration. The research on Mongolian integration presented in this master's thesis was carried out as a case study focusing on analysis of transnational behavior of immigrants (sending remittances, mobility and regular contact with family and friends in a country of origin). Based on the results coming out of completed interviews, this thesis tries to find whether this behavior has an impact on immigrants' process of integration. It also seeks to find other potential factors that might have a significant influence. The results of this research reveal quite high rate of transnational practices, yet it does not seem to be the only determinant of a successful or...
