Herman, Iryna ; Podaná, Zuzana (advisor) ; Homolová, Pavla (referee)
(in English): This thesis deals with a restorative justice, or the most widespread method, which represents the mediation. This method is then described in the standard form used in the Czech Republic as well as in the redesigned version adapted for violent crime in the US, which is contained in the first theoretical part. In the practical part, these two forms of mediation are compared with each other. Different moments are then reflected on three case studies, where appeared a mediation of violent juvenile crime. The results of comparison shows that the modified parameters of meidation used in case of violent crimes were not in these case studies demonstrated. This may be due to the fact that all the actionswere of less violent severity, so the differen elements of mediation didnť have to be necesery exploited.

Vede (příjmová) nerovnost k většímu násilí ve společnosti?
Mlčoch, Tomáš ; Houdek, Petr (advisor) ; Bartoň, Petr (referee)
The article investigates the impact of inequality on violence in society using the data from the EU for the years from 2005 to 2008. The results show a positive and significant impact (in 2005) of inequality on violent crime while increase by one point in the Gini index means an increase in violent crime by 6,1%. Moreover, I find the relationship with the GDP growth and prison population significant, and negative correlation with GNI PPP per capita and the number of police officers. Above all, the Power Distance Index (measuring perceived inequality and centralisation of power) has a very significant and positive effect on violent crime, an increase in 1 point means an increase in violent crime by 1,8%. The factor of residential segregation is also discussed as a limit or a bias during the investigation of the effect of inequality and violence using the data from a smaller territorial unit than the state-level.

Other crimes of the perpetrators of domestic violence
DVOŘÁK, Vlastimil
Domestic violence is a serious problem of our population; it is the most wide-spread form of violence concerning all groups of inhabitants. At home violence other criminal offences are committed simultaneously but no statistics observes the connection between home violence and committed crime of violent character. If the communication with surroundings fails, verbal violence (belittling, threat, invectives) or non-verbal violence (rejecting of communication as the means of exaction, signs of assailing by a gesture and of course violent aggression itself) come. The term ``home{\crqq} is not only a place where an aggressor and a victim live; it is a subjective term for the place and group of people. Home and a group of people cannot be situated in a specific place. Nevertheless, home and home environment is in places, which are out of the public control and a group of people is separate from the others. In these surroundings the relationships among particular individuals, parents, children, siblings and partners are included. As there is no typical victim of domestic violence, there is no typical offender of domestic violence. Belonging to a social group on the social, racial or other basis, age, job, nationality does not suppose the creating of certain typical features. The thesis and its research are focused on the issue of domestic violence as well as the issue of committed criminal offences before and after the course of domestic violence. The first hypothesis is that the offenders are people with the criminal past, which was not proved by a quantitative research. The second hypothesis that offenders with the criminal past commit violent criminal activities more frequently than property or other criminal activities was proved. However, its relevancy was weakened by the participation of respondents, or sociological structure of respondents. The results of the research on domestic violence were identified with generally admitted and respected facts. Respondents´ answers did not differ from the results of other statistic investigations but it was necessary to clear the results from subjective impressions of respondents-police officers, which come out of the character of their jobs. The use of potential marking of possible violent activity offenders or domestic violence committing with respect to their past criminal cases is available for the needs of region section basic units (the Police of the Czech Republic).

The Youth Opinions towards Violent Crime
PROKOPOVÁ, Michaela
The bachelor?s thesis aims to map the opinion of young students in secondary schools on the issue of violent crime, its repression and prevention, and to identify their fear of such crimes. The theory part explains the historical development of repression for specific violent crimes and defines the concept of violent crime and describes concepts associated with this group of crimes. The next chapters deal with criminal aggression, forensic theory of violent crime, its phenomenology, etiology and prevention, sense of security and fear of such criminal offenses. The last chapter describes violent crimes such as murder, robbery, assault and manslaughter as stipulated in the new Criminal Code effective from January 1, 2010. Four hypotheses were stated prior to the research. The first hypothesis suggesting that more than 60% of all respondents consider the number of violent crimes decreasing was invalidated. The second hypothesis affirms that more than 70% of all respondents consider brutality of culprit of violent crimes to be rising. The third hypothesis affirms that more students of an apprentice school would inflict the death penalty for plain murder and deliberate murder after prior consideration than students of a grammar school. The fourth hypothesis suggesting that more than 80% of victims of violent crime within the respondents do not feel safe in their domicile was invalidated. A quantitative research was chosen to collect data. The method used was inquiry and the data collection method was anonymous questionnaire. The respondents were students of an apprentice school and of a grammar school. The sample was determined by quota sampling where the quota consisted in age, sex and type of attended school. The sets were mutually compared. The conclusions of the research indicate that respondents are not enough informed on the issue of violent crime. A certain distortion of data transfer to the public, and the lack of crime prevention, and the dangers of excessive watching of shows and playing video games with violent topics for children were pointed out. Based on these findings, possible solutions of the issue were suggested. The results of this thesis can be used by the police dealing with crime prevention, but also provide advice for parents. They could also be published in some of the forensic or police journals.
