Kovářová, Kateřina ; Drbohlav, Dušan (advisor) ; Schroth, Jan (referee)
Analysis of Czech return migration and social remittances - A case study of Ireland Abstract The thesis connects two relatively young concepts - social remittance and return migration, both happening on the background of transnationalism. This Master's Thesis is a case study of Czech migration to Ireland. The thesis aims to identify the return motives and the so-called breaking point - when and under what circumstances the decision to return is made, whether there is a potential for the transfer of social remittances to the non-migrant population in the country of origin and how migration strategies, acquisition and the spread of social remittances differ for low-skilled and high-skilled migrants. The research is based on a qualitative approach. It allows a deeper and closer understanding of the return motives, transnational relations, the acquisition, transfer and impact of social remittances, their character and mutual connections among the selected group of informants. For that reason, the research method uses semi- structured interviews with two groups of informants - the Czechs living in Ireland and the Czechs who already returned from Ireland to the Czech Republic. The results of the research reflect potential and actual remittances and motives for the return of both mentioned groups. At the same...

Migration policy of Czech republic and Great Britain, with a view to a labour-migration
Bártková, Vendula ; Drbohlav, Dušan (advisor) ; Schroth, Jan (referee)
This diploma paper deals with the migration problemacy and it primarily focuses on one of the most important elements, which affect migration - i.e. migration policy. We may polemize about the actual influence of migration policies on the final size and structure of migration flows, about the effectivity in fulfilling of their objectives; however we must agree on the fact, that migration policies represent an important factor, which affects migration movements. In this work we therefor aim to explain how migration policy arises, what influences its formation and shape and what kind of instruments we may subsequently use to value its fruitfulness. Seeing that in current time the labourmigration is the most common type of the total migration, we focused on the actual situation in the labour-migration policy and we were trying to find out which kind of instruments are used in this area as well as what types of programmes are offered. We pay attention to this problemacy not just from the view of Czech republic, but furthermore from the position of Great Britain, because we presume, that because of its history Britain has multiyear experience in this area, so thus it can be a great source of inspiration for Czech republic.

The role of Frontex agency in the migration crisis and attitudes towards its development within selected European Union institutions
Capicarová, Radka ; Drbohlav, Dušan (advisor) ; Schroth, Jan (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the role of Frontex in protecting the EU's external borders during the migration crisis and its attitude towards its activities within the selected bodies of the European Union. In particular, it examines the period since the beginning of the migration crisis in the spring of 2015, until September 2016, when Frontex was reformed and the new European Border Guard and Coast Guard continued to be called Frontex. The aim of the thesis is to find out what attitudes to the role of Frontex were among the groups of the European Parliament. With regard to Schengen area without internal borders within the EU, an integrated border management system has been created to effectively manage the crossing of external borders and to address migration challenges. For controls at the EU's external borders, various instruments and agencies have been set up, such as Frontex. The theoretical part of the thesis therefore deals in more detail with the Schengen area and the functioning of Frontex, including its specific competences. It also describes the basic facts about the beginning and the course of the migration crisis, especially between 2015 and 2016. The thesis to achieve its objectives first analyzes the profile of the various groups within the European Parliament in order to find out...

Agencies and the client system of mediating work for migrants from SNS and Ukraine in Czechia (pros and cons)
Kniazeva, Anastasiia ; Drbohlav, Dušan (advisor) ; Schroth, Jan (referee)
1 Abstract International migration has an impact on the economy in both the receiving and the sending countries due to the fact that foreign workers will 'reinvest' the financial remittances in their home country and support the domestic economy in the source state while fulling the demand for work in the receiving country and improving the financial climate in the host state. Work agencies and the client system are some of the most important details of this system that allows migrants to get a job and often facilitates participation and provides additional services to organize their stay in the host country. The theoretical basis of this thesis is the migration network theory and also the neoinstitutional theory with its concept of limited human rationality as well as a concept of institutional "limitations" in the context of created institutional rules. In the theoretical part of this work the agency and the so-called client system, which performs the same duties on an illegal level, - were explored as institutional units in their historical, real, social dimensions. Basic qualitative research examines the concept of the migration network theory and the concept of limited choice of institutional theory on the example of nine migrants from the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and Ukraine with...

Schovánková, Soňa ; Drbohlav, Dušan (advisor) ; Schroth, Jan (referee) ; Ouředníček, Martin (referee)
The dissertation thesis is aimed at actual topic of the international labour migration and working foreigners in the Czech Republic during the period of the global economical crisis of 2008 and 2012. It is an empirical research that comes out from the qualitative and quantitative study of the topic. The subject of the research were working foreigners. We differ foreigners in the position of employees and businessmen as well as foreigners from the European Economic Area and Switzerland and so called third countries. In the work we also focus on the statistical data both from their availability and interpretation point of view and also from the volume of flows of international labour migration and the stock of working foreigners in the Czech Republic. Selected indicators were also used to study spatial distribution of working foreigners in the Czech Republic including its factors from political, social, economic, geographic, demographic or cultural areas. The study was carried out by applying qualitative and quantitative correlation and regression analyses. In this respect we focused also on the discussion of the relevancy of statistical data from areas specified above that may help to clarify the structure of the spatial distribution of working foreigners. The dissertation thesis includes the first attempt...
