Vývoj a komparace nástrojů rodinné politiky v České republice a v Maďarsku v letech 2000-2022

The master thesis analyses the development and comparison of family policy instruments in the Czech Republic and Hungary in the years 2000-2022. The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on the introduction of basic concepts related to family policy, especially the definition, policy makers, objectives and instruments of this policy. The theoretical concept is followed by the practical part of the thesis, which traces not only the development of selected instruments of family policy, but also compares and evaluates the differences between the structure of Czech and Hungarian families, the position of mothers on the labour market and the financial resources spent on this policy. On the basis of the results found, family policy in the Czech Republic should focus primarily on supporting the increase in maternal rate, which has been below the level of OECD countries for a long time, and on introducing new instruments to support young people in getting married.
