BABY BOY OR BABY GIRL
Zákostelná, Lucie ; Hebák, Petr (advisor) ; Burdychová, Bohdana (referee)
The thesis is mainly focused on the analysis and evaluation of the effects influencing the sex ratio of live births. After studying of the foreign language literature, main factors influencing the sex ratio are defined. Data used in the thesis (births by the sex) are retrieved from The Human Mortality Database, database of United Nations Statistics Division and from particular statistical offices. Based on the results of the exploratory data analysis, countries with unreliable data (data skewed due to the manipulation or due to the not appropriate standard of the registration of born) are specified. Subsequently, the countries with abnormal values of the sex ratio at birth resulting from the cultural traditions or technological development are defined. For countries with not evident influence of the factors mentioned the analysis of the relations and dependencies between sex ratio at birth and variables chosen (groups of the geographical, socioeconomics and demographical impacts). On the basis of this analysis it has been proved that the sex ratio at birth depends primarily, but not exclusively, on the total fertility rate and life expectancy.

History and process of migration from Turkey to Germany
Zákostelná, Lucie ; Kačerová, Eva (advisor) ; Řezanka, Marek (referee)
The main purpose of my thesis is to describe history and process of immigration from Turkey to Germany. The secondary aim is to provide a comparison of Turkish population, German population and Turkish ethnic community in Germany. The first chapter deals with immigration flows, their motives and consequences. Moreover, it is targeted on labor immigration, followed by their wider family members and later also asylum seekers. The thesis is enlarged by graphic charts showing developments of foreign population in Germany, specifically incoming Turkish people. The second chapter is devoted to the topic of foreigners and the process of gaining German citizenship. There are defined various instances of a way of becoming a German citizen. At the end of this chapter I provide a description of a group naturalized in 2009. This chapter is also supplemented with graphs showing for example numbers of naturalized foreigners and Turks in Germany. The third chapters is concerned with a comparison of Turkish population, German population and ethnic Turks living in Germany, or let us say people who immigrated to Germany and still have their Turkish citizenship, meaning they were not involved in naturalization process. Further on there is a comparison of those groups facilitating population pyramids. Further on I present some evidence of differences in age and sex structure in between years 2000 and 2010 in the particular populations. This part also provides the reasons, why the demographic structure of Turks in Germany is different. The closure of my thesis contains the comparison of the three populations in between years 2000 and 2007-2010 using mean age, biological generations and ratio of seniority. This is followed by economical generations and total dependency ratio then junior and senior dependency ratio. The conclusion of this thesis is that the ethnic Turks living in Germany is approaching its demographic structure to the Turkish population rather than German population. It is however expected that the next generations will be gradually approaching their demographic behavior to German behavior.
