The aim of this thesis is to examine why the Czech Republic has shortcomings with the practical implementation of the European Union Directive 2000/43/EC: the “directive on equal treatment irrespective of racial or ethnic origin”, in the field of education. Although the Czech Republic by 2007 did correctly incorporate the directive into domestic law, the lack of practical compliance is striking. A disproportionate high number of Roma pupils is placed in practical schools. The thesis investigates which effects the “misfit” between Czech domestic arrangements and the Race-Equality Directive along with the mediating factors within Rational Choice and Sociological Institutionalism have on the level of Europeanization. The thesis formulate hypothesis regarding the presence or absence of mediating factors, that facilitate or prevent compliance. Mediating factors that will be investigated are: structural veto-points, regulating structures, consensus-oriented political culture, dominating belief-system, problem-solving method and differential empowerment of actors. The analyse based on scientific articles and reports finds that numerous veto-points are blocking compliance.
