Transition to University under Communism and after Its Demise. The Role of Socio-economic Background in the Transition between Secondary and Tertiary Education in the Czech Republic 1948-1998

The aim of this study is to address the question of how inequalities in access to tertiary education have evolved in the Czech Republic. With an understanding of the basic parameters of both the contemporary political and institutional reforms and those in effect prior to November 1989, the authors have formulated a hypothesis which claims that the period of stable inequalities in the years 1948-89 was replaced by a period of growing inequalities during the post-communist transformation.…

The analysis revealed that the only significant change that occurred during socialism was a decrease of inequality between men and women. It also confirmed a significant growth in the effect of class background on the odds of making the transition between secondary and tertiary education after 1989. …

The Influence of Family Origin on the Evolution of Educational Inequalities in the Czech Republic after 1989

This paper analysed the hypothesis of the growing influence of family (social) origin on success in the transition between secondary and post-secondary school in the 1990s. The family origin of the respondent was indicated through the father's education and his socio-economic status. With the use of the method of logistic regression the hypothesis of the growing influence of social origin was not confirmed. On the contrary, trends since 1989 testify to decreasing inequality in access to education.…

Vzdělanostní nerovnosti a vzdělanostní mobilita v období socialismu

Was the Czech education system and indirectly the Czech society as a whole becoming more or less open?…
