Ochrana náboženských menšin ve Velké Británii

The goal of this bachelor's thesis is to prove the connection of development of legislation regarding the protection of religious minorities and the rise of presence of Islam in the British public space. This connection resides in the fact, that these laws pose the reaction of the British political representation to the rising and the stability of British society threatening conflict of British Muslims and broader society. The essence of this conflict is the interconnection of the rise of Islamophobia and changes of Muslim identity. The consequence of this conflict is a mutual alienation, leading in its most radical form to religiously aggravated violence and terrorism. Methodically, the thesis aims to prove the connection in question by both analyzing the explicitly stated proclamations of legislators and by defining the principles of development of this type of legislation in Great Britain by using the examples of past legislation regarding the protection of racially defined groups.
