Nerovnosti při přechodu na osmileté gymnázium: panelová studie žáků pražských a středočeských škol

Úspěšnost školáků v přechodu na akademickou větev vzdělávání je determinována sociokulturním zázemím v rodině, což dokumentují výzkumné studie většinou až v pozdějších fázích vzdělávací trajektorie při přechodu na terciární stupeň. V českém prostředí byla dosud jen malá pozornost věnována přechodu mezi základní školou a víceletým gymnáziem, tj. na konci prvního stupně základní školní docházky. Naše studie se proto zaměřuje na roli kulturních faktor…

The other disadvantaged neighbourhood: income related effects of living in rural peripheries

The other disadvantaged neighbourhood: income related effects of living in rural peripheries

In this article, we argue that similarly to the literature on urban neighbourhood effects, the idea of disadvantaging residential environment can be used to explain the socio-economic disadvantage of residents in rural peripheries. We present arguments as to why it is appropriate to consider the effects of the residential environment in a micro-regional perspective and outside of metropolitan areas. These effects are empirically analysed using income related data from the Czech Republic. We ask whether income …

Trust in Transition: Culturalist and institutionalist debate reflected in the democratization process in the Czech Republic 1991-2008

On the basis of the discussion between cultural and institutional theories, and taking into account the specific development in post-communist countries, we study three elements of the democratic system - specifically, social trust, institutional trust, and systemic trust (legitimacy of democracy). Using data from the European Values Study, conducted in 1991, 1999 and 2008, we analyze the roots of institutional trust and systemic trust (i.e. popular support for democracy) in the three distinct stages of transi…

Nothing Happens Here…Living Conditions in Rural Peripheries

The book focuses on spatialised forms of social inequalities. In particular, it explores the various forms of disadvantage associated with living in rural peripheries. Rural peripheries are relatively sparsely populated places, with poor transport connections to large cities, which don’t profit from the population growth typical of the suburban and peri-urban countryside. At the same time, rural peripheries are affected by a range of social problems. The individual chapters of this book try from different pe…

Na vzdělání záleží

Na vzdělání záleží

Za posledních dvacet let došlo v České republice k zásadnímu nárůstu počtu studentů na vysokých školách. Jedním z důsledků je, že v naší populaci vzrostly podíly osob s ukončeným vysokoškolským vzděláním na dvojnásobek. Prudký rozvoj vzdělávacího systému vyvolává řadu otázek. Mění se vztah mezi vzděláním, chováním, hodnotami a postoji? Rozevřela se v posledních třech desetiletích propast mezi lidmi s nižším a vyšším vzděláním, nebo se naopak rozdíl…
