Tipping point urbanism: A study of the painting and fading of the macromural La Mariposa in governing self-built settlements in Bogotá
Macropaintings have gained popularity as a tool employed by urban authorities and artists to uplift marginalized communities in cities across the Global South through the painting of their physical environments. However, despite the significant visibility of these paintings and their potential impacts on cities, there is limited knowledge regarding the conditions of their creation as well as the circumstances of their “fading.” Drawing on fieldwork conducted in Bogotá, Colombia, I analyze how urban author…

Challenges for Women Entrepreneurs in Times of Crisis and Tools for Overcoming Them
Crises like the COVID-19 pandemic have significantly impacted women entrepreneurs. Policies designed to support entrepreneurs have often followed a one-size-fits-all approach, overlooking men's and women's unique needs and unequal access to state support. Recognizing these gender disparities, our analysis centres on the perspectives of policy-makers (both during and beyond the pandemic) as well as on the experiences of those the policies aim to support. The study is based on 17 in-depth, semi-structured interv…

Japonskost a bělošství ve 21. století
Tento článek se zaměřuje na postoje k imigrantům v Japonsku s důrazem na bělošské cizince ze západních zemí. Z hlediska významu bělošství ukazuje, jak jsou tito migranti v určitých situacích zvýhodňováni i marginalizováni zároveň, a reflektuje širší souvislosti etnicity, nativismu a japonské identity. V kontextu populačního stárnutí se navíc role migrace stává ve veřejném diskurzu stále významnější.…

How Small Municipalities Contribute to Robust Crisis Governance—Experiences From Two Recent Large-scale Crises in Czechia
This article explores how small municipalities in Czechia adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic and Ukrainian refugee crisis, and thus contributed to governance robustness. Through 24 semi-structured interviews with mayors, we examine local challenges and responses, revealing how these crises exposed weaknesses in public administration, particularly in decision-making, coordination, and communication at the outset. Mayors played key roles, making swift, independent decisions to meet urgent needs, often bypassing st…
Public attitudes towards small modular reactors. An emerging research field and evidence from six countries
This deliverable report D1.1 of the HORIZON-EURATOM ECOSENS project, ‘Economic and Social Considerations for the Future of Nuclear Energy in Society,’ presents findings obtained in 2023-2024 by qualitative and quantitative studies of public attitudes regarding new nuclear technology, specifically Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). Compared to the vast literature on large traditional reactors, very little is known about the public's perceptions of this new technology or the willingness of local communities to p…

Public resistance to climate policy amid energy crisis and populism: The case of the European Green Deal in the Czech Republic
This paper examines negative opinions on the European Green Deal (EGD) by combining critical discourse analysis of three Czech media and public opinion data analysis based on a representative sample of 821 Czech adults. Against the backdrop of the EGD contestation in the media debate and disagreement among the public, we evaluate the impact of the energy crisis and populism on resistance to this policy in a heavily coal-dependent post-communist Central European country. We found that neither the actors in the …

Population-representative study reveals cardiovascular and metabolic disease biomarkers associated with misaligned sleep schedules
Social jetlag manifests as a difference in sleep timing on workdays and free days. Social jetlag is often associated with shorter, lower-quality sleep, so it is unclear how much the chronic circadian misalignment contributes to observed negative health outcomes. We aimed to (1) investigate associations between social jetlag, chronotype (one of its determinants), and the levels of health markers, (2) describe factors associated with social jetlag, and (3) examine whether working from home can reduce social jetl…
Sources of sex-disaggregated data
The collection and analysis of information and data on an area or issue should always be categorized by gender. This is because it allows important inequalities and gender differences to be identified. This document presents several examples of data sources (CSO, MIT, EIGE, Eurostat and OECD) that can be used to map the position of women and men (not only) in the field of entrepreneurship and to identify relevant types of support for women entrepreneurs. For each example data source, the characteristics of the…

Discontent and Disadvantage in Left‐Behind Places: Regional Effects on EU‐Trust and Status Attainment in Europe
Debates on left-behind places, rural resentment and spatial disadvantage posit that political discontent stems from perceived inequalities between regions and on the urban/rural interface. The popularity of this argument is fuelled by frequent mapping of electoral results, which very often demonstrates a spatial correspondence between increased Euroscepticism and Populism on the one hand, and rural peripherality, shrinkage, economic and health issues and other forms of social disadvantage on the other. This pa…

Pragmatic Socioeconomics: A Way Towards New Findings on Sources of (Housing) Market Instability
In this paper, we aim to define basic principles of pragmatic socioeconomics that may create a more solid interdisciplinary bridge between sociology and mainstream economics in the study of economic behaviour. The merit of this new concept demonstrates itself in the results of our research on the impact of social norms on home-buying behaviour and the consequences that such behaviour has for the operation of the housing market and housing price trends. That research demonstrates that interdisciplinary economic…

Strong Gender Contract, Weak Institutions: Gender Pay Gap in Slovenia and Czechia
Nerovnosti v odměňování žen a mužů mají silné historické kořeny, které spadají ještě do období socialismu. Studie, kterou vedla Alena Křížková, to prokázala na příkladu Česka a Slovinska. Ženy v obou zemích vydělávají v průměru o 13–14 % méně oproti svým mužským spolupracovníkům (tedy na stejné pozici a na stejném pracovišti), i když důvody jsou v jednotlivých zemích v některých směrech odlišné.

The Structural Misrecognition of Migrants as a Critical Cosmopolitan Moment.
Transnational migrants and their struggles have become central for rethinking cosmopolitanism from below. This chapter builds on theoretical and empirical arguments of critical cosmopolitan perspective and proposals for methodological cosmopolitanism that shifts the angle from which the social sciences look at social reality. Who is regarded as a relevant social actor to put forth cosmopolitan claims is crucial. Nevertheless, the author suggests that equally important is what struggles are taken into considera…
Distorted Emancipation and the Transnational Political Economy of Social Reproduction.
The chapter elaborates a critical analysis of the role of borders in the marketization of care and a European care border regime, which creates a structural position of the low-paid mobile European guest care worker, who are commonly migrant women from Central and Eastern EU member states. Through an investigation of recent care disputes, highlighted by the pandemic in borderscapes of the Central Europe, it analyses how the political economy of borders maintains an undervaluation of care and works to delay a c…
Transnational migration and the extractivist logic of global capitalism: the EU–Eastern Africa geopolitical space.
The chapter traces the ways in which transnational migration is an inherent part of the evolving modes of value extraction and capital accumulation. It argues that transnational migration is embedded in the political economy of global capitalism in two ways: accelerating extractivist practices coproduce the structural causes of transnational migration and then transnational migration becomes a surface of value extraction through the militarisation, securitisation, and datafication of border management. This ma…
Proč číst Dekoloniální feminismus v českém kontextu?
Text z různých úhlů kontextualizuje knihu Dekoloniální feminismus od Françoise Vergès pro české čtenářstvo. Její analýzy dekoloniálního feminismu a kritiku civilizačního feminismu doslov propojuje se střední a východní Evropou a feminismem zakotveném v tomto regionu, nerovnostmi mezi východem a západem a dalšími. Text také doplňuje historický kontext související se historií kolonialismu, resp. koloniální exepcionalismus.…
Disorganised Collective Citizens’ Interest, Social Transformations and Technopopulism
New ways of doing politics, embodied in the appeal to populism, the appeal to technocracy, or both combined, that is, ‘technopopulism’, are revealing symptoms of crisis in citizens’ representation in democratic societies in the European Union. This type of doing politics indicates ruptures in the organised citizens’ interest, which are leading to the rise of new parties and party leaders promising to solve ‘the people’s’ problem in general, that is, populism, and of unelected technocrats that off…
Beyond the second-order national elections model: Incumbency effects in regional elections in the Czech Republic
Literature provides four basic theories to explain regional election results and how they differ from national patterns: authority of regional governments, ethnic or linguistic cleavages, congruence of national and regional electoral systems, and second-order election effects. The second-order national election theory explains why regional elections exhibit lower turnout levels, why government parties lose voter support, and why opposition, minor, and new parties gain support. While second-order election theor…
Economic and Pandemic Performance Voting in the 2021 Czech National Election
The literature on how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected vote choice provides evidence of both ‘rally-’round-the-flag’ effects and the influence of perceived government pandemic performance. However, this evidence concerns short-term effects. Much less is known about how COVID-19-related economic changes and government measures in response to the pandemic have affected vote choice over a longer period. Using a post-election survey from the Czech Republic fielded in October 2021, we examine the effect of …
Alkohol a účty panství České země do husitské revoluce
Tento příspěvek se zaměřuje na vztah české a moravské šlechty k alkoholu podle finančních pramenů do počátku husitské revoluce. Větší pozornost je věnována výrobě alkoholu (zejména piva, méně vína) na šlechtických panstvích. Pro vrcholný středověk se zdá, že šlechtické panství nebylo soběstačné ve výrobě alkoholických nápojů. Situace v raném novověku, kdy efektivní zemědělství vytváří přebytky pro trh, a šlechta si vynucuje své poddané ke konzumaci piva…
Czech political candidate and donation datasets
This paper introduces a new Czech Political Candidate Dataset (CPCD), which compiles comprehensive data on all candidates who have run in any municipal, regional, national, and/or European Parliament election in the Czech Republic since 1993. For each candidate, the CPCD includes their first name, last name, age, gender, place of residence, university degree, party membership, party affiliation, ballot position, and election results for candidates and for parties. We match candidates over various elections by …
