The master thesis "Czech women on their way to emancipation" is dealing with the changes of Czech society which took place during the 19th and 20th century and which are influencing the contemporary Czech society until today. This thesis is putting contemporary gender - topics in connection with political background, equal possibilities of men and women in the public and in the private sphere of life. The work is dealing with three main topics. The first is speaking about the historical development and traditional opinions on the role of women and men. The second topic is focussed on the period of the Czechoslovak socialist state and the third part is focussed on the Czech society of today.

Yes / A global response to Covid‐19 pandemic has triggered issues related to stress and social restrictions; thus, mental health is seen as a particular area of concern for social well‐being for both policymakers and corporate regulators/companies. Given that mental health intersects with most, if not all, of the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs), this research brought to light issues surrounding employment of people with mental disabilities (PWMDs) and the financial merits of employing them. An online survey was administered to PWMDs to elicit what possible flexible opportunities could enable them to gain or stay at work. Interviews were also conducted with human resource managers and financial managers. Our results show that there are currently no flexible working opportunities available for PWMDs, which could enable them work effectively to improve both self and general economic growth.

Att turismen påverkar lokalsamhället är något som forskats kring tidigare. Dessutom tar flera forskare upp vikten kring att utveckla destinationer för att överleva framtida klimatförändringar och på så vis skapa en framtid för destinationen. Det teoretiska ramverket innehåller bland annat delar där turismens effekter samt hantering av dem framställs. Studien syfte är att undersöka hur lokalbefolkning uppfattar turismen på en plats samt platsens utveckling mot att bli en året runtdestination. Studien kommer använda Åre som ett case för undersökningen. Syftet mynnar ut i två frågeställningar där den första är vilka effekter som lokalbefolkningen i Åre upplever av turismen på destinationen samt destinationens satsning på att bli en året runt-destination och hur lokalbefolkningen påverkas av de effekterna. Den andra frågeställningen avser att undersöka hur lokalbefolkningen anser att de effekterna bör nyttjas alternativt hanteras. Undersökningen skedde genom en kvalitativ studie i form av intervjuer med lokalbefolkning från den studerade platsen. Respondenterna utgör endast en liten del av den tänkta populationen, och representerar därmed inte hela samhället även om vi som forskare få utgå från det i studiens framställning. Genom intervjuerna framställdes ett empiriskt material där respondenterna tog upp bland annat att turismen ledde till en viss trängsel, fler arbetsmöjligheter samt ett mer levande samhälle. Respondenterna diskuterade både fördelar och nackdelar med turismen på destinationen. Dessutom sågs det möjligheter i boendeutveckling, hur lokalbefolkningen skulle ses som ambassadörer samt hur infrastrukturen skulle kunna utvecklas på destinationen. Utvecklingens ansvar låg bland annat på Åre kommun och dess samarbete med bland annat SJ (Statens järnvägar) samt staten i form av ändringar kring statlig väg. Vidare analyserades materialet för att se respondenternas åsikter tillsammans med tidigare forskning samt för att se deras åsikter från flera perspektiv. Här framgick det att majoriteten av respondenterna hade en relativt liknande syn på turismen och dess effekter på destinationen. Det leder in studien gentemot dess slutsatser där den huvudsakliga slutsatsen är att lokalbefolkning anser att de negativa effekterna av turismen vägs upp av de positiva. Dock behöver lokalbefolkningen få vara en del av utvecklingen och de beslut som tas på destinationen. Det är viktigt för att kunna bibehålla den positiva synen samt bidra till en hållbar utveckling för platsen. / Turning to the local community and how it is affected by tourism is something that has been researched earlier. In addition, several researchers raise the importance of developing destinations to survive future climate change, thus creating a future for the destination. The theoretical framework also contains elements that explain different effects of tourism and how to manage them. The study aims to explore how locals perceive tourism at their community as well as the community’s development towards becoming a destination with tourism activities the whole year around. For this study Åre will be used as a case. The purpose of the study divides into two research questions. The first one is which effect locals in Åre are experiencing from the tourism on the destination and the destinations investment in becoming a destination with tourism activities the whole year around. The second research question aims to examine how the effects could be used or managed according to the locals. The study also aims to find answers to how locals think that effects can be managed or used even more. This was done through a qualitative study of interviews with locals from the studied destination. These respondents constitute only a small part of the selected population. Therefore do not the respondents represent the whole community, even though we assume this in the study's presentation. The interviews gave us an empirical material in which respondents stated that tourism led to some congestion, more work opportunities and a more alive society. The respondents discussed both the advantages and disadvantages of tourism at the destination. In addition, respondents saw opportunities for housing development, how the locals were to be seen as ambassadors and how the infrastructure could develop at the destination. The responsibility for the development was suggested to be put on the Åre county and its cooperation with SJ (Statens Järnvägar) and the State of Sweden to change the public road in Åre. Furthermore, the material was analyzed to see the respondents' views in conjunction with previous research and to view their opinions from several perspectives. Here, it was found that the majority of respondents had a relatively similar view of tourism and its effects on the destination. That led the study towards the conclusion, where the main conclusion is that locals consider the negative effects of tourism to be less than the positive ones. However, locals need to be part of the development and decisions taken at the destination. This is important in order to maintain the positive view as well as contribute to sustainable development for the destination.
