Application of the principle of autonomy in the field of death and dying of seniors in the Czech Republic
D´mello, Petra ; Fošum, Jan (advisor) ; Svoboda, David (referee)
Diploma thesis "Application of the principle of autonomy in the field of death and dying of seniors in the Czech Republic" primaly deals with issues related to the right to self-determination, human dignity and desires associated with the end of life. It seeks to answer the question of the extent to which the autonomy of the individual can be respected and to participate in end-of-life healthcare decisions through the legal concept of living will, even if the person is in a position that does not allow to express the will. Although this institute is firmly rooted in the legal order of the Czech Republic, awareness of this legal concept is insufficient among the public and rarely used, unlike the Federal Republic of Germany, where the institute is usually applied by seniors. The aim of the work is to reflect the current issues of dying and death from an ethical point of view and provide comprehensive information on the current possibilities of exercising the right to self-determination, which can significantly support the quality of human care in the terminal phase of life.

Janáč, Václav ; Hofmannová, Helena (advisor) ; Horák, Filip (referee)
Equality of rights and dignity in the jurisprudence of the Czech Constitutional Court - Human dignity and the human being as an object Abstract This thesis analyses in detail the approach and jurisprudence of the Czech Constitutional Court to human dignity and the objectification of man. Using a historical and theoretical context, key ideological trends that have influenced the development of the concept of human dignity are presented. Beginning with the ancient understanding of dignity as personal honour and social status, the thesis gradually traces the development of human dignity to the ideas of I. Kant, who laid the foundations for the prohibition of the instrumentalisation of the human being. The focus is on German wartime and post-war developments. From the wartime period of World War II, the thesis briefly discusses the Nazi Euthanasia program. The reasoning of the post-war German Constitutional Court subsequently became a source of inspiration for the decision-making of the Czech Constitutional Court. Subsequently, the approach of the Czech Constitutional Court to human dignity and to certain problematic issues related to the application of the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms is discussed. These include the anchoring of human dignity in Article 1 of the Charter and Article 10(1) of the...

Concepts of human dignity and their importance in social work
VOBOŘILOVÁ, Kristýna
This bachelor thesis deals with the concepts of human dignity and its importance in social work. The goal is to describe the meaning of individual concepts for this profession. The thesis is solely theoretical. It is based on the concept of human dignity according to the German theologian Doris Nauer. She describes dignity within the framework of theological and secular concepts. The secular concept is based on dignity according to Cicero and Kant. Their work is followed by human rights, which are relevant for today's society. The theological concept, on the other hand, is based on Christianity and therefore has a religious basis. The first chapter is devoted to the concept of human dignity. The next two chapters describe the individual concepts. Furthermore, the thesis is focused on dignity in social work. The aim of the fifth chapter is to compare both two concepts. The last chapter explains the meaning of human dignity and its concepts for social work.

The Long Road to Dignified Status: The Contribution of Applied Ethics to the Research of the Roma Holocaust Eighty Years After the Events
Viková, Lada ; Pinc, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Soukupová, Blanka (referee) ; Moravcová, Mirjam (referee)
This dissertation is based on three case studies of selected families of the original Romani inhabitants of the Czech Republic who were affected by the Roma Holocaust. It contributes to the detection of ethically sensitive aspects in the background of the coexistence of Roma with non-Roma environments in the Czech lands and at the same time to capture the risks associated with this research. The main tool of thinking is the concept of human dignity. The work pursues the two following main goals. Firstly, through historical-genealogical research, the project resulted in the reconstruction of the history of these families since their arrival in the territory of Moravia, through the process of their settlement and the gradual transformation of their ways of life, especially in the interwar period. The research easily maps the post-war period as well. Despite their gradual involvement in the life of society, there is a visible continuity in viewing these families from the point of view of local and central authorities as "gypsies" - their secondary status. The central period, which is more elaborately discussed, is the Second World War, the work is focused on the impact of the Roma Holocaust on these three families, and subsequently the efforts of the survivors to cope with the war traumas are mapped....
