Comparison of national public policies of Roma integration in Central Europe
Tuzar, Vojtěch ; Perottino, Michel (advisor) ; Říchová, Blanka (referee)
The societies of most European countries, especially those in Central Europe, are plagued by a high incidence of social and civic exclusion of Roma. The living situation of a significant part of the Roma community is a long-standing human rights challenge for modern welfare states. Since the collapse of the bipolar world, with the flowering of liberal values of equality, it has been assumed that Roma would be relatively swiftly integrated into mainstream society and that unjustified disparities in access to public services would be eliminated. Over the last thirty years, all states affected by significant levels of exclusion of the Roma minority have attempted to address this sensitive issue through a wide range of policies, but without any relevant and lasting impact. The present thesis examines national public policies in the field of Roma minority inclusion in Slovakia, Poland, and Czech Republic and Hungary in the current period. The main objective of the thesis is to compare the national integration policies of selected Central European countries by applying Actor-centred Institutionalism Theory and the A-A-A Model. The result of the scientific research is to present a comparative overview study that will generally reveal parallels and discrepancies in the states approach to Roma exclusion and...

Comparison of Methods of Left Appendage Exclusion During Surgical Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
Kohut, Marián ; Kuntscher, Vilém (advisor) ; Skalický, Tomáš (referee) ; Rohn, Vilém (referee)
Comparison of methods of left atrial appendage exclusion during surgical ablation of atrial fibrilation Abstract Atrial fibrillation is the most common heart arrhytmia affecting a significant part of the population over 60 years of age and it is an eminent source of cardio-embolic events. Leading source of intra-cardial thrombi is the left atrium of the heart, specifically the left atrial appendage. Randomised studies show significant reduction of cerebral ictus by the use of Warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation, however the use of anticoagulation has its restrictions, side effects and contraindications. There are several surgical techniques of excision or exclusion of the left atrial auricle. This dissertation thesis is focusing on the comparison of the two most common surgical techniques - resection of the left atrial appendage using a stapler and the exclusion of the left auricle using a clip applied from the pericardial side. At the same time, we've set an objective of confirming the electrical insulation of the left atrial appendage as a significant source of fibrillation impulses when using the clip for the left appendage exclusion. In a group of 30 patients with atrial fibrillation and who underwent the surgical atrial fibrillation ablation using a clip or stapler amputation during complex...

"The Gypsy Scourge!" Creation and Implementation of Anti-Gypsy Measures in interwar Czechoslovakia and After, 1918-1941
Baloun, Pavel ; Himl, Pavel (advisor) ; Sadílková, Helena (referee) ; Zimmermann, Volker (referee)
On December 22, 1926, an opening ceremony of the so-called Gypsy school was held in Uzhhorod, the capital of the Czechoslovak administration in Carpathian Ruthenia. Czech officials who gave talks pointed out pedagogical significance of the established institution which they described as unique and exceptional "experiment". The creation of a special school for children of those inhabitants who were labelled as "Gypsies" on the territory which was annexed by Czechoslovakia only later after the First World War and which in the contemporary imagination represented specific, "backward" region of the newly established state, served to consolidate the legitimacy of the First Republic as a democratic, progressive, modern, liberal state which belonged to the developed and civilized West. More than a half year later, on July 14, 1927, representatives in the Czechoslovak Parliament in Prague passed the Act No. 117/1927 on Wandering Gypsies. The development of this law was related to an immense interest of the contemporary media in "Gypsies" which was encouraged by the arrest of approximately twenty "Gypsies" from a village located in East Slovakia. They were charged of numerous robberies and murders. In contrast to the situation shortly after the First World War when the central Czechoslovak authorities...
