Hradečná, Pavla ; Holíková, Klára ; Faltová, Magda ; Jelínková, Marie ; Ezzeddine, Petra ; Duba, Pavel ; Vacovská, Taťána ; Lörincová, Dominika ; Chmeliar, Peter ; Bikova, Mariya
Předkládaná publikace se zabývá problematikou migrantek či žen s migračním původem ve vyšším středním až seniorském věku, které žijí na území ČR. Je zpracována na základě získaných informací o vyšších rizicích vícenásobné diskriminace, která jim hrozí, a také na základě identifikované potřeby lepšího ukotvení práv těchto osob ve strategických dokumentech zabývajících se integrací migrantů a migrantek. V dlouhodobém horizontu tato analýza směřuje k posílení práv žen. Neméně významným faktorem, který stojí za vznikem této práce, je i snaha přiblížit téma genderu a stárnutí v migraci odborné veřejnosti, přispět k posílení spolupráce celé řady relevantních subjektů a v ideálním případě do budoucna podnítit český stát ke změnám v oblasti přístupu k ženám s migračními kořeny.

Russian speaking students (from Russia and Kazakhstan) in the Czech Republic. Educational migration and the role of the family in it
Kopecká, Liudmila ; Pinc, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Ezzeddine, Petra (referee) ; Sidiropulu Janků, Kateřina (referee)
The PhD thesis "Russian Speaking Students (from Russia and Kazakhstan) in the Czech Republic: Educational Migration and the Role of the Family in it", examines the life of Russian speaking students, who come to the Czech Republic to obtain a university degree. It tries to answer several research questions. How is the decision taken to come to the Czech Republic? What kind of role does family play in the decision-making process and in further intentions/plans in the Czech Republic? What are the migration strategies of Russian speaking students in the Czech Republic? How do these strategies change over time? What connections exist between the life cycle of the student and the migration process? This is an anthropological, multisite field research, with participant observation being the core research method. As of 2015, 55 student research participants participated in the research (41 from Russia and 14 from Kazakhstan), with whom formal and informal interviews were made. Transnationalism and migration system theory have been used as theoretical concepts so as to better understand the student migration process.

Spatial behaviour of immigrants: analysis of spatial relatedness between migration groups
Hasman, Jiří ; Novotný, Josef (advisor) ; Baláž, Vladimír (referee) ; Netrdová, Pavlína (referee)
The entry of immigrants into their incoming country as well as their subsequent spread over the country's territory occurs through processes that have a strong spatial bias. The specific migration groups (here defined as the set of immigrants with the same country of origin) tend to reveal different levels and patterns of their spatial concentrations. The understanding of these similarities and dissimilarities in spatial behaviour is important task from both academic and policy perspective. This thesis has a quantitative character and it is based on the study of "spatial relatedness" of migration groups, which is defined as a rate, how much do given migration groups concentrate into the same regions. The thesis is based on a simple assumption that the spatial relatedness mirrors mutual proximity or similarity between these groups in other respects (e.g. cultural or economical). Plenty of datasets describing spatial distribution of migrants within 32 territorial systems on various scales (from global to local) are analysed. These systems will be analysed separately at first and then a synthesis of these partial results will be done with the aim to discover prevailing pattern of the spatial relatedness of migration groups. The assessments consists of several steps, which include particularly calculation of...

International migration of unaccompanied minors to Czech Republic and their integration into the majority society
Cojocaru Zahorková, Vanda ; Sládek, Jan (advisor) ; Podaná, Zuzana (referee)
The bachelor thesis outlines some background context regarding the phenomenon of unaccompanied minors in Czech Republic. Czech Republic belongs to the group of transit countries, through which unaccompanied minors travel to reach their destination country. The consequence is very few asylum applications from minors which Czech Republic receives. Therefore the thesis offers a broader view of migration issue of minors taking into account the European context. The Facility for children of foreign nationals provides care to unaccompanied minors in Czech Republic. This Facility plays a key role in process of integration of minors into the majority society. Thus the thesis as a form of qualitative approach to the issue focuses on the understanding of the function of this Facility and on the role of social and cultural capital of unaccompanied minors in the process of their integration in Czech Republic. Keywords: international migration, integration, unaccompanied minor, social capital, cultural capital, qualitative research.

The PhD thesis 'Vietnamese in Czechia and the world: migration and adaptation tendencies' sheds light on the development of international migration of the Vietnamese since the mid 20th century to the present with special emphasis on Czechia as a country of destination. The main aim is to identify the key factors that initiate international migration of the Vietnamese and how they determine main directions of these movements, affect migrants' and non-migrants' expectations and determine adaptation strategies. In this respect, the methodology of the paper is based on the combination of macro-level and micro-level approaches. Therefore, the thesis brings an analysis of main structural factors encouraging international migration of the Vietnamese such as economic development, economic and political reforms Đổi Mới and pro-emigration policy of the Vietnamese government; and also an analysis of actors' personal interpretations of these factors. The key part of the thesis is also identifying the transformation of importance of these factors depending on the stage of migration and on the socio-economic-political context of migration or migration-decision making. The paper stems from the analysis of available statistical data and legal documents, and results of three-year research, which was carried out...
