Decision makers’ preferences of policy instruments
The article empirically tests the theoretical propositions on instrument choice articulated by Linder and Peters and their followers. It examines whether decision makers tend to prefer some policy instruments over others, what the patterns of these preferences are, and how they can be explained. Using a survey of Czech ministerial and regional public officials involved in strategic policymaking (N = 1,112), the findings confirm that individuals exhibit clear patterns of instrument preference that are similar t…

Comparing Citizen Attitudes towards Security and Liberty in the Czech Republic and Slovakia
Comparing Citizen Attitudes towards Security and Liberty in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

The article focuses on the relationship between security and privacy from the point of view of a citizen. It examines Czech and Slovak citizen attitudes toward the use of strong prevention security measures in a situation w…

What's past is prologue, or is it? Generational effects on voter turnout in post-communist countries, 1990-2013
A common theme in studies of voter turnout in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) is that the legacy of communism attenuates electoral participation. It is argued that socialization and the political habits that emerged under communism impeded democratic development by not motivating citizen activism. This paper examines this claim for voter turnout in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, and Poland for all general elections since 1990 using cohort analysis on pooled crosssectional post-election surveys from gi…

Individual’s cultural capital: intergenerational transmission, partner effect, or individual merit?
For decades, social stratification research has focused on the effect of families’ cultural capital on their offspring’s educational attainment. However, few studies have focused on the shaping of individuals’ cultural capital. This study aimed to examine the effects of family background, individual, partner, and household characteristics on individuals’ reading preferences and cultural participation. Structural equation modeling was applied to Czech Household Panel Survey (CHPS) data (N=6,040). The re…

Partner Selection Across the Life-Course: Age Variation in Partner Preferences in the Czech Republic
The proportion of people seeking a partner later in life has increased in recent decades. However, studies exploring age variation in partner preferences are quite rare. We aim to fill this gap by examining the partner preferences for household care skills, financial resources, and education of unpartnered individuals aged 19–65 years (n = 1145) who participated in speed-dating events in the Czech Republic. We hypothesized that the importance of these characteristics varies with age, and that this variance m…

Comparing Citizen Attitudes towards Security and Liberty in the Czech Republic and Slovakia
The article focuses on the relationship between security and privacy from the point of view of a citizen. It examines Czech and Slovak citizen attitudes toward the use of strong prevention security measures in a situation where the government suspects a terrorist attack or security threats in general. The authors focus on the Czech Republic and Slovakia, two countries that do not have much experience with a severe threat to security, so security is more about pre-emptive measures and general consideration. Dat…

Korupce jako riziko pro jednotlivce i stát
Současná sociologie si klade otázky, kde, jak a proč vznikají rizika, jak je produkuje nebo konstruuje sama společnost a jak se promítají do jedincovy každodennosti. Na jedné straně stojí rizika jako terorismus či korupce, s nimiž se jednotlivci potýkají jen vzácně, která ale mění podobu celé společnosti. Na straně druhé jsou potom rizika v životě jedinců neustále přítomná, ať už jako možné osobní události (zločin, úraz při sportu, zdravotní problémy či osobní útok…

Changes in crime-related factors and subjective well-being over time and their mutual relationship
Recently, there has been growing interest in crime-related determinants of subjective well-being (SWB). The existing findings are, however, rather contradictory. The relationship between the aforementioned phenomena is most often examined using cross-sectional data, although it seems their development over time might be interlinked. Moreover, only limited attempts have been made to address the multidimensionality of SWB. Using a pseudo-panel analysis of eight bi-annual waves of the European Social Survey (ESS)…

Disentangling the link between having one child and partnership trajectories: a mixed-methods life-course research
This article explores the relationships between partnership trajectories and having an only child. Few studies have focused on one-child families, even though in many countries having just one child is the main factor driving sub-replacement fertility levels. Little is known especially about how non-progression to a second child relates to partnership trajectories. This article contributes to filling these gaps by using a mixed-methods life-course research. We combine sequence and regression analyses of survey…
