Opinions of Novohradsko region citizens on the voluntary immigration of foreigners to the Czech republic and their social integration.
KOLÁŘOVÁ, Lenka
This bachelor´s thesis deals with the study of the views of the Czech population, more precisely the citizens in Novohradsko region to immigration to the Czech Republic. We came to an interesting conclusion that the citizens in Novohradsko region that we worked in our work with, have not gone along with this issue yet. It also indicates that some individuals have xenophobic attitudes and try to avoid answering the questions related to immigration. People have different attitudes to individual groups of immigrants, and these attitudes are distinguished according to how the foreigners are able to adapt and blend in with the surroundings. They are neutral in relation to their ethnic relatives- Slovaks and Poles. They are, however, negative towards individuals of other ethnic and culture. The immigration of foreigners to the Czech Republic is still increasing. How can the Czech population see the arrival of immigrants? The results of our research confirmed that foreigners are perceived more positively. Their arrival is not completely avoided the people welcome more those foreigners who are able to apply to the labour market, to learn English and adopt a Bohemian way of life. The research part of the thesis will be implemented as the investigation and interviews with respondents. I will prepare the obtained data to be able to verify given hypothesis. The respondents are the citizens of the Czech Republic in Novohradsko region.

The Kurdish Minority in Turkey: Problems and Perspectives
Netopilová, Eliška ; Zemanová, Štěpánka (advisor) ; Trávníčková, Zuzana (referee)
The treatment of minorities by different states gains scholarly attention in the recent years. This thesis attempts to define the necessary criteria for a state to have in order for its treatment of minorities to be acceptable by the international society. There are three major parts of the thesis. It starts with a thorough investigation of legal dimension of minority rights. The thesis formulates the criteria that a state should meet in the field of national and international law regarding minority rights. The second part investigates the political dimension of the issue. The analysis of political dimension describes the interaction of governments with minorities and the factors influencing the success of minorities in achieving their demands. In the final part of the thesis, the criteria formulated in legal and political dimensions are applied to the case of the Kurdish minority in Turkey. The position of Kurdish minority in the society is unique because of the Turkish state's assimilationist policies towards ethnic minorities till very recent years. The minority rights defined by international society were, therefore, not recognized in Turkey. However, the situation has recently changed. The current government ruled by Justice and Development Party has applied numerous democratization reforms that normalize the position of minorities. The Kurdish minority is not discriminated against as much as it was in the past. In addition to the analysis of the current state of minority rights in Turkey, the thesis proposes opportunities for improvement in the future.
