RSDr. Václav Jakl (1924 - 1985), journalist; edition of diary entries and correspondence
CHEJNOVSKÁ, Natálie
This bachelor's dissertation is an attempt at an edition of the correspondence of one of many people who during World War II were in forced labour. The chosen person was RSDr. Václav Jakl. The chosen correspondence for this dissertation is between the years 1944 and 1945 which was kept in the Personal Collection of RSDr. Václav Jakl (1938-1985) and stored in State Regional Archive in Pilsen. The correspondence consists of a letter that he used to exchange with his family and friends. The letters describe both the everyday life of people in forced labour as well as the life of people in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. The first chapter of this dissertation is dedicated to the methodology used in the dissertation, the method of oral history, resources and literature. For the purpose of the dissertation, it was vital to focus on correspondence as a historical recourse to highlight the possible complications and issues that the researcher could encounter during their research. The next chapter is explaining to the reader the concept of forced labour, its development and the organisational structure in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. As the reader needs to understand the organisational structure of forced labour, the fourth chapter is dedicated to the role of the Office of Labour. Because the foundation of personal correspondence is tightly connected to the day to day lives of the people correspondents, this dissertation must include a chapters about the everyday life of people in forced labour in the Third Reich and the development of the Staňkov Region in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia where the family of Vaclav Jakl lived. The next few chapters are devoted to Vaclav Jakl himself, his life before and during forced labour, and his close and distant family with who he wrote the correspondence. At the end of the dissertation, the reader will find the list of abbreviations and bibliography. The attachments include a note of edition, edited texts of used correspondence, an index of names and locations, a sample of contemporary literary work of Václav Jakl and a pictorial appendix.

Changes in reproductive behaviour in the beginning of the demographic revolution (example of Staňkov)
Bozděch, Lukáš
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 assumptions of commercial services development in a chosen area - DSO Chlum u Třeboně, Staňkov, Hamr
KOLÁŘOVÁ, Martina
The aim of this thesis is to describe a chosen microregion with focus on the given sphere of commercial services and to specify predispositions of development of this sphere of commercial services. An intention was to carry out the situational analysis which is a very important point for the formation of the strategy, whether it is necessary to find out the current market condition. The next purpose was to explore, whether the microregion has any specific predispositions so as to be successful in the sphere of commercial services and what the region should concentrate on at the present time and in the future. The Union of municipalities Chlum u Třeboně, Staňkov, Hamr is situated in the South Bohemian region and consists of three municipalities: Chlum u Třeboně, which is characterized as a small town, Staňkov and Hamr are villages. This union of municipalities is the recreational area and was established in 1999 for the purpose of obtaining grants for the building of a new technical infrastructure in the member municipalities. The area is placed in a landscape attractive for tourists. Beautiful and intact country-side can be found in the surrounding. A number of Czech sights and significant cities are situated nearby and fishpond cultivation has a long tradition there. However, the microregion encounters problems including bad state of some historical monuments, unsatisfactory conditions of local roads, aging population in municipalities, migration of younger population to the bigger cities, insufficient equipment of schools and bad transport availability to neighbouring municipalities. Using of the funds from EU could be the solution for improvement of this situation. The biggest potential for development is found in Chlum u Třeboně where the most important difference between potential and used opportunities occurs. The town endeavours to improve living of both local inhabitants and tourists. The activity is rather declining in Hamr and Staňkov, especially the inhabitants of Hamr don't care for tourism very much. On condition that tourism is used, it is possible to reach balanced development leading to the raising of the standard of offered services and also to raising of the quality of residents' lives.
