Legal aspects of care for dependent persons
Presser, Šimon ; Tomšej, Jakub (referee)
Legal aspects of care for dependent persons More than half a million people in the Czech Republic is directly affected by the issue of care for dependent persons. It concerns not only those who are relying on care due to a physical or mental disability, but also those who provide the necessary care. Regarding the providers, so-called informal carers constitute majority of them. They are often family members who provide care without any official formalization, contract, or registration. However, as a group, informal carers are repeatedly overlooked. While emphasising the rights, duties and needs of both dependent persons and carers, this paper aims to comprehensively evaluate the current legal framework regulating the care for dependent persons. Firstly, the system of care in the Czech Republic is generally described followed by the presentation of specific forms of care highlighting the position of informal carers. Secondly, the paper brings up an analysis of basic activities of daily living that are crucial for the assessment of dependence. Subsequently, the administrative procedure in which the assessment is undergone is closely depicted. Nevertheless, the main focus of the paper lies in the analysis of the rights and obligations of the persons dependent on care and the informal carers. Hence,...

This thesis focuses on media image of presidential candidates on both theoretical and empirical level. Theoretical part elaborates on agenda setting, salience, and framing. But mainly it focuses on summarization of current studies and methodological approaches to research of attribute agenda setting and creation of media image of political candidates. In total, sixteen studies from various media environments have been analysed. From these studies, set of universally applicable attributes have been derived, using the method of conceptual clustering. This set has been further extended by author's own categories and other attributes that emerged during empirical study of Czech daily newspapers. Result of the theoretical part is widely applicable set of 29 micro-attributes which five macro-attributes and two meta-attributes (as newly defined category) are consisted of. Besides the set of attributes, this thesis creates and defines brand new method of analysis through Coefficient of media affection which allows to evaluate the affective dimension of media image. The Coefficient is variable and can be tailored to the needs of specific research. Theoretical part, therefore, presents new and complex approach to analysing the media image of presidential candidates. The empirical part applies the methodology...

This bachelor thesis focuses on media presentation of the US Presidential Candidates in selected. Czech newspaper. Elections from 2012 were chosen as a case study. This thesis elaborates on theoretical concepts of agenda building and setting, framing and political image. It uses methodology described in literature and authors own research. Author identifies 19 categories of attributes that are used by media to describe political candidates and that influence the audiences. Through the method of mixed, quantitative and qualitative content analysis it was examined which of these categories prevail and in which tone (positive/neutral/negative) they are presented. As a sample three leading Czech serious newspapers were chosen - Právo, Mladá fronta DNES and Lidové noviny which were monitored over period from 28 August to 6 November 2012. Besides the attributes also salience of the issue and candidates was measured as well as frequency of occurrence of the topic. Last but not least overall valence of the articles was counted leading to calculation of coefficient of media favourableness regarding each candidate. Thus the research provides complex overview of US presidential candidates presentation. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
