Quietly does it: Questioning assumptions about class, sustainability and consumption

This paper questions assumptions about the relationship between class formation, sustainability and patterns of consumption. The empirical elements of the research are based upon qualitative and quantitative time-series research into food self-provisioning and ‘quiet sustainability’ in post socialist Central and Eastern Europe (Poland and the Czech Republic). It considers sustainable practices that are often considered to be taking place ‘in the wrong place and the wrong time’, i.e. they appear anomalo…

Distorted emancipation refers to the social consequences of the marketization and commodification of areas of social life tha…

A new collection that analyses how exactly comparison -- as a particular type of social scientific practice -- is done, while assessing some of its opportunities and limitations. It features case studies of comparative practices that range from colonial architecture, to hacking communities, to ranking practices in hospitals and academia, while also examining the practical challenges of achieving comparison. This might include the need to collaborate in teams or to stretch comparisons across time and space.Over…

Within-couple Financial Satisfaction in the Czech Republic: A Test of Income Pooling Hypothesis

It focuses on partners in two life stages: couples raising children and couples with empty nests. On average, women contribute substantially less to the household budget than men and their financial satisfaction is slightly lower. Financial satisfaction of partners with children is not influenced by who brings the income…

Kdo se obává kriminality a jak tyto obavy ovlivňují důvěru ve vybrané společenské instituce v České republice?

Over the years both scientists and scholars have been interested in fear of crime because it ranks among the most important indicators of the effectiveness of the fight against crime. Although this phenomenon is widely studied abroad, there are only a handful of Czech studies that discuss it in depth. The aim of this article is to broaden the scope of research in this area. The article maps the possible causes and consequences of fear of crime in reference to the literature and the specific milieu of the Czech…

Hledání dynamické rovnováhy: tři generace výzkumnic na VŠCHT

Dynamická rovnováha charakterizuje chemické reakce, které probíhají srovnatelně oběma směry, tedy od výchozích látek k reakčním produktům a zároveň opačně. Pokud je jí dosaženo, znamená to, že se množství vzniklých reakčních produktů rovná množství reakčních produktů rozložených ve výchozí látky. Zdánlivě se tedy nic neděje, přestože reakce probíhá oběma směry i nadále. Pokud budeme přidávat či ubírat výchozí látky nebo reakční produkty, dojde k naruš…
