Intermediation in design as a practice of institutioning and commoning

Design practices often involve grassroots communities and institutional actors with designers working as or with intermediaries.

To discuss intermediation, the paper introduces two case studies: a community radio project in Europe and a food supply chain project between Australia and China. The two c…

Emergent Consequences of Narrating Futures in Energy Transitions

The paper presents a general theoretical argument about narrating futures and demonstrates its validity on the topic of energy transitions. It goes beyond the perspective of social constructionism and analyzes the temporal relationship between narratives, as employed in social interactions, and the reality of structural conditions in societies.

The Transformation of Order in Narrative as Discordant Concord: Using Paul Ricoeur to Explore Narrative Realism as Part of Social Morphogenesis

Social interaction as the middle phase of the morphogenetic sequence described by Margaret Archer presupposes that interpretative activities go on between individuals and collectivities. Novel meanings emerge in social interaction and spur the processes of structural elaboration. The hermeneutics of actors (or agents) should be part of the morphogenetic explanatory framework. Narratives as a distinctive species of interpretation will then become more susceptible to a mode of analysis based in realism. By adopt…

It demonstrates in outline the suitability of this approach in the special case of coal, the mining and combustion of which epitomize the ambiguity of the industrial era. The chapter applies the morphogenetic approach in a way, which is both comprehensive and responsive to empirical data. The …

Veiling Religion: The Public Face of Czech Re-Entry Faith-Based Organizations

Due to the lack of sufficient non-governmental prisoner re-entry services in the Czech Republic, many post-release activities are provided by faith-based organizations (FBOs). However, the Czech Republic is considered to be one of the most atheistic countries in the world. Most of the Czech population is at least apathetic toward organized religion. This study examines how re-entry FBOs present Christianity to the public in the religiously indifferent Czech Republic. The primary focus is on how the organizatio…

Česká a slovenská národní identita v percepci Československa

Rozdělení Československa je významná dějinná událost, která zásadně formovala a stále formuje národní identity Čechů a Slováků. Zároveň se tyto identity promítly v této dějinné události. Ačkoliv si oba národy byly velmi blízké a tento vztah jim zůstal i nadále, odlišný demografický vývoj a hodnotové orientace se odrážely i v jejich novém směřování po Sametové revoluci v roce 1989. Tato kapitola nejen dokládá tyto rozdíly, ale také mapuje veřejné mínění v kri…

Apportioning Uncertain Voters in Pre-Election Polls in a Multi-Party System

In recent decades, voters have been postponing their decisions about what party to vote for to a time closer to the elections. One factor in this delay is when people are considering more than one political party. Drawing on two data sets from the general elections in the Czech Republic, we present an approach that assigns a person’s vote to multiple considered parties. We test the impact of the different apportioning of probabilities on the overall accuracy of poll estimates and on the estimates for each po…
