Socialistické průmyslové město ve fotografii: dva pohledy na proměny ideologické konstrukce

The study offers a critical understanding of the socialist city as a visual construct communicating the ideological contents and reflecting their (historical) transformations, based on the example of the two key themes of visual representation – the urban space and the role of men and women in this …

Domov jako konceptuální rámec, téma i výzkumný terén: vývoj i současná podoba studií domova

Over the past thirty years there has been a substantial change in how home is understood in the social sciences. While it is still possible to discern the influence of phenomenology on contemporary thinking about home, the studies presently at the forefront of the geography, anthropology, and sociology of home largely reflect the impact of critical social theory and the cultural and spatial turn in the social sciences, and they have also made the lines between these disciplines blurrier. This article primarily…

The Urbanization of Nature in a (Post)Socialist Metropolis: An Urban Political Ecology of Allotment Gardening

In this article we explore how nature becomes part of the city through the example of allotment gardening in the city of Prague, in the Czech Republic. Prague allotments were established based on an ongoing political‐ecological process of urbanization of nature that was locally driven by socialist (from 1948 to 1989) and later neoliberal governance. We employ a situated urban political ecology (UPE) approach to analyse changes in the planning of allotments and the impact thereof on the experience of gardener…

Between roots and rhizomes: Towards a post-phenomenology of home

Humanistic and phenomenological scholarship has long tended to regard home as a fundamental place of existential and experiential stability. In recent times, the notion of home has been critically re‐examined, however, and home is now regarded as a more complex and multi‐faceted phenomenon. Drawing on interviews with prospective buyers in two cities of the Czech Republic, I explore the complexity of home and pay particular attention to the internal tensions and paradoxes of home as imagined by people buyin…

Postavení žen v české vědě. Monitorovací zpráva za rok 2018

Každoroční statistický přehled situace a vývoje v oblasti postavení žen v české vědě včetně mezinárodního srovnání ukazuje, že situace se sama od sebe pozitivním směrem nemění, naopak lze konstatovat mírně negativní tendence, tedy pokles zastoupení žen v nejvýznamnějších oblastech.

Kdo plánuje jedináčka a kdo chce zůstat bezdětný? Faktory ovlivňující nízké reprodukční plány mužů a žen

Remaining childless or having just one child are two different experiencesand each is attached to a different social status. However, they canalso be viewed through a unifying lens as phenomena that contribute to lowfertility. Theories that seek to explain low fertility often attribute both phenomenato the same causes. This article examines what factors are connectedto a person’s intention to remain childless or to have just one child andwhether it is possible to consider intentions to remain childless or ha…

Působení ženských řeholních řádů v českém pohraničí: Průniky církevních a laických světů

This article maps out the relation between women’s religious orders forced to work in the Czech borderlands (namely the Šluknov Hook) in the period of 1950-1993 with the lay, secular community. It deals with each of the orders and their specifics and describes their work with clients of nursing homes and of social welfare institutions. It attempts to answer the question of what such forced labour brought about for both parties, and what has changed since the nuns have left the studied locations. The study a…

Bez slávy i bez diskuse, aneb ordinace žen v českých církvích

Ordination of women as ministers is an important issue of gender equality and social stratification. The liberally-oriented non-Catholic Czech churches introduced the ordination of females rather early – the Czechoslovak Hussite Church in 1947, and the Protestant Church of the Czech Brethren in 1953. In both cases, however, these were quite problematic steps, and female members of the clergy were long handicapped in comparison to their male colleagues, which the author attributes to the way this fundamenta…

What Does It Take to Fight Fake News? Testing the Influence of Political Knowledge, Media Literacy, and General Trust on Motivated Reasoning

This study explores youth accuracy judgments of disinformative and nondisinformative claims. Analyses are based on a nationally representative youth (16–20 years old) survey experiment conducted in the Czech Republic in 2017. When they were exposed to posts regarding refugee crisis, young people were asked to judge the accuracy of the statements accompanying the posts. Motivated reasoning of youth depended primarily on the alignment with the posts and the ideology of participants. Results of this research su…

Koncept kvality života u osob s mentálním postižením

Osoby s mentálním postižením tvoří skupinu zdravotně postižených, která je ve vysoké míře ohrožena sociálním vyloučením, tedy exkluzí, segregací a marginalizací. Jejich participace na dění v majoritní společnosti je ztížena z různých důvodů, například i proto, že jejich potřeby jsou často saturovány v nevyhovujícím ústavním prostředí, spíše než v přirozeném prostředí komunity. Příspěvek v teoretické rovině pojednává o aktuálně …

Prekoncepce a miskoncepce vybraných sociálně patologických jevů u žáků základních škol

V této práci byla pozornost zaměřena na dosud opomíjenou problematiku výzkumu žákovských prekoncepcí a miskoncepcí k fenoménu netholismu, gamblingu a náboženských sekt. Cílem kvantitativní výzkumné studie bylo zjistit, zda se liší prekoncepce žáků k těmto vybraným sociálně patologickým jevům z hlediska genderu a navštěvovaného ročníku. Výzkum byl realizován na 10 základních školách u 1144 žáků ve věkové kohortě 10–15let. Jako výzkumný nástroj b…

Psychosociální bariéry v kontextu inkluzivního vzdělávání žáků s mentálním postižením

V posledních pětadvaceti letech prochází české školství zřetelnou proměnou, dochází k paradigmatickým střetům, konceptuálním a strukturálním obměnám a též k přijetí nových cílů vzdělávání. K základním východiskům této transformace patří idea inkluze, která je v podmínkách našeho současného vzdělávání rozvíjena prozatím spíše v teoretické než praktické rovině. Překážkou v praktické aplikaci inkluze mohou být negativní postoje intaktních žák…
