The bachelor thesis focuses on single mothers and their position in the family and in society. The work is oriented to the current Czech environment and pays attention exclusively to single mothers due to their numerical superiority in single-parent families. The aim of the work is to present how single motherhood looks like nowadays and at the same time to uncover possible pitfalls that can be associated with single parenthood. The work is mainly focused on the difficulties of single mothers in the labor market, on economic problems and on problems of an emotional nature. Thanks to a qualitative investigation and ten semi- structured interviews, it is possible to identify in more detail how single mothers really perceive their situation and how they interpret it. The results of the work can bring people closer to the real situation of single mothers and at the same time they can stimulate further steps to improve it.

The Table for Determination of Alimony - the Role and Efficiency in Judicial Practice
Dvořáková, Jitka ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Čermáková, Marie (referee)
Three years ago, the Ministry of Justice in the Czech Republic stated in judicial practice a recommending table whose intention was to unify the decision-making practice of courts in determining of alimony. The table should rectify a vague treatment of the maintenance obligations, guarantee a legal certainty for all participants and predictability of decisions. The alimony often covers only a part of all costs for a child under conditions that it is paid. The situation is even more problematic because the single-parent families with minors usually belong to the households which are mostly threatened by poverty. These families are most often headed by woman, who bears the brunt of caretaker and breadwinner roles. Their role is also influenced by the disadvantageous position at a labour market. The result of all these factors is usually a feminization of poverty and transmission of the standard of living from a mother to a child. My research interviews were focused on the fact if the table is used in practice. I evaluate its efficiency and represent modifications suggested by the courts. The analysis showed that not all courts use the table or use it at different levels. It is a consequence of reading of the word "recommending". This fact indicates a neglect of any need to use and a broader context...

Lacinová, Alexandra ; Hejzlarová, Eva (advisor) ; Dobiášová, Karolína (referee)
The master thesis is focused on policy design identification in relation to trans people in the Czech Republic in the time period 2012 - 2020. The work uses the theory of Social Construction of Target Population (TSKCP) written by authors Schneider and Ingram. The goal of this paper is to describe three main elements of TSKCP: content of public policy, political power of the target population and its social construction. Based on this, the paper aims to classify the target group of trans people according to the typology of the theory used. For the purpose of this paper, five interviews with respondents were conducted and especially statements of experts as well as analysis of public policy documents are the key parts for answering the research question. Next, analysis of more than seventy online articles related to the examined population within the given time frame was conducted, thanks to which the question of how trans people are constructed in the Czech internet media was answered. There were two main kategories as an outcome of this analysis, including a more detailed explanation. The work also brings in its results the identification of benefits and burdens that arise for the examined target population from the legislative setting.

Tůmová, Kateřina ; Hejzlarová, Eva (advisor) ; Čampulková, Jitka (referee)
This thesis is focused on comparison of specifics of single fatherhood and the situation of single mothers in the Czech Republic. At the head of majority of single-parent families is a woman, but there are cases in which the head of single-parent family is a man. The situation of single fathers has not been explored enough yet. That is why I consider this topic very interesting. The thesis focuses on comparison of four key aspects of single-parenthood. These are reconciliation of job and childcare, economic situation of single-mothers and single- fathers families, childcare and household chores and the last aspect is attitude of people towards the single-parenthood. The main aim of the thesis is to find out if the situation of single-fathers families is different from the situation of single-mothers families. I have used primary data, which I gained from interviews with single fathers and also secondary data from different qualitative researches and literature focused on issues connected to this topic. The secondary data have been used for description of the situation of single mothers and also for the comparison of both groups.
