Karásková, Karolina ; Makariusová, Radana (advisor) ; Ludvík, Zdeněk (referee)
The main aim of this Master's thesis is to analyse how children are recruited and abused as soldiers in armed conflicts, and how international humanitarian law protects their rights. The thesis is divided in two main parts, theoretical and empirical. In theoretical part are introduced the most important documents of international humanitarian law and international human rights law, including international governmental and non-governmental organizations which promote these rights. In empirical part, the author focuses on case studies, namely the case of the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) and the case of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). The author was not interested in finding similarities in these two cases, but conversely, to point out on the uniqueness of each case. To precise, the thesis is analysing reasons for the recruitment and abuse of children by the LRA and ISIS, and the legal responsibility of both groups. The author of this thesis chose as a methodology an instrumental case study which is useful for providing a general understanding of a phenomenon by using a particular case. In addition, this methodology is convenient for interpretation of legal documents, and two selected cases serve as instruments for interpreting the recruitment and abuse of children in armed conflicts.

Restorative Juvenile Justice This thesis is dealing with restorative juvenile justice. It aims to summarise and critically discuss this topic.

Children's right in the light of legal obligations imposed on the Czech republic
Dohnalová, Radka ; Hýbnerová, Stanislava (advisor) ; Bayerová, Monika (referee) ; Bílková, Veronika (referee)
Mgr. Radka Dohnalová CHILDREN'S RIGHTS IN THE LIGHT OF LEGAL OBLIGATIONS IMPOSED ON THE CZECH REPUBLIC 2012 SUMMARY The main purpose of my thesis is to analyse the level of implementation of legal obligations imposed on the Czech Republic by international child law. For this purpose, the study maps out the ambit of the international child law relevant to the Czech Republic; it deals especially with binding documents, but it does not ignore non-binding legal instruments, as far as their influence on child rights is certain. The wide range of subject matter is examined with regard to particular analysis of the two most important treaties - the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. Clarification of the obligations and an evaluation of their impact is mainly undertaken through an analysis of the outcomes of the control mechanisms. The introduction is followed by two chapters dealing with the theoretical background for the ensuing research. Chapter Two briefly examines the basic theoretical origins of children's rights, since this question is seldom discussed in Czech legal literature. This chapter also analyses crucial concepts such as the definition of the child, the best interest principle and participation rights....

Increasing The Legal Awareness Among Children In Bohemian Region
STANISLAVOVÁ, Lucie
In this thesis I have concentrated on legal consciousness of children but not from their point of view, how it was in most cases of the elaboration of this topic, but from the point of view of people who actually work with children. This regards pedagogues, social workers, further school psychologists and psychologists. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with the right, legal consciousness, further then with the important conception ?child?, namely from the point of view of pedagogy, psychology as well as from the viewpoint of law. The thesis deals with morals itself and also its comparison with law, further with the value system and education, on important documents regarding the rights of children, educational program and its focus on the education of law in elementary and high schools. The important section of the theoretical part are also projects focused on increasing of the legal consciousness executed in the Czech republic as well as in the Southbohemian region. 144 respondents from the Southbohemian region took part in the research, either respondents who work in an elementary or high school, eventually in non-profit organizations which work with children. The difference of the opinions between pedagogues nad other workers was found out by the research. In contrast to other workers, the pedagogues think statistically more often that children have the legal consciousness. A very interesting moment is the age since which children should be acquinted with their rights. Other workers consider the beginning of the school attendance (or even the end of the preschool attendance) as the optimal age for familiarising the children with their rights in contrast to the pedagogues who would shift this limit almost to the second degrese of elementary schools. Next founded and documentary fact was the difference in methods used for familiarising children with their rights. The pedagogues combine discussions and lectures as well as model situations. Other workers prefer only lectures and discussions. They vary also in the evaluation of time dotation devoted to the rights of children during school education. Other workers are much more critical than the pedagogues in this regard. It was proved that the pedagogues more often do not know the organizations which deal with the rights of children whereas other workers do. The whole research is assumed into SWOT analysis which determined children´s interest in their rights and their familiarising with the right already since 1st class as the most strong sides. A weak spot showed to be the lack of time in school education devoted to children´s rights together with obtaining the biggest amount of information in the family. A chance is the realization of more new projects focused on concrete spheres of the rights and also the fact that the legal consciousness should be constantly increased. The risk is insufficient knowledge of rights in the sphere of the protection of personality when easy misuse and also insufficient knowledge of rights threaten. The insufficient knowledge could result in the increase of transgressions even criminality.

Czech family in the early 21st century - an attitude to the punishment of children
ZADRAŽILOVÁ, Aneta
The topic of this bachelor?s thesis is A Czech family at the beginning of the 21st century ? the attitude to punishment of children. The theoretical part deals with the characteristics of a family and its functions. It also includes a historical outline which summarises the development of family since the Middle Ages till present day. The next chapter concerns upbringing and the styles and models thereof. The chapter that describes methods of upbringing is divided into two parts; it covers reward as well as punishment, both physical and psychological and the thin line which separates harmless punishment from abuse. Another essential part of this thesis focuses on crucial documents and the effort to legally protect children. The last chapter compares using physical and psychological punishment and their consequences. The aim of this thesis is to find out how the selected generations, within the framework of the family, view punishment as a component of traditional upbringing. This thesis uses qualitative research. The researched objects are represented by multi-generation families (parents and grandparents). To find out the necessary information, a structured semi-stanradised interview was used. Parents and grandparents from 3 different families from Třebíč were asked about their opinions on upbringing and their views on children punishment.The results of the research confirmed that present-day parents have not, to a large degree, deflected from the methods of their parents. Therefore, the most commonly used practice is inflicting punishment, including that of a physical nature. The respondents also disagree with the proposed change of law that would prohibit punishment as they appear to fear that it would eventually lead to excessive democracy and parents would lose control over their children. The work could serve for professionals who deal with the issue of punishment of children.
