Completed project

Sociální a ekonomické charakteristiky nemanželské plodnosti v České republice

Project duration: 
2005 - 2007

 

Předkládaný projekt si klade za cíl zmapovat situaci neprovdaných matek po roce 1989 s důrazem na sociální a regionální aspekt problematiky a navrhnout a zhodnotit případné nástroje sociální politiky na základě zahraničních zkušeností. Doplní tak demografické práce, které upozorňují na to, že se v českém případě nemanželská plodnost kumuluje mezi mladými ženami s nízkým a velmi nízkým vzděláním

Po roce 1989 v české společnosti vzrostly podíly neúplných rodin, ale především se prudce zvýšily počty svobodných matek a v současné době se rodí přibližně 30 % dětí neprovdaným ženám. I když porození dítěte neprovdanou ženou nemusí samo o sobě vypovídat o sociální marginalizaci, v mnoha případech tomu tak je. O typu a relativní rizikovosti svobodného mateřství vypovídají dva faktory: 1) jaké je typické sociální postavení neprovdaných matek; 2) kolik z neprovdaných matek žije v de fakto manželstvích.

Navrhovaný projekt počítá s uskutečněním empirického výzkumu, jehož cílem je zjistit, zda otcové dětí neprovdaných matek obvykle žijí ve stejné domácnosti a nakolik lze nárůst mimomanželské plodnosti vysvětlit rostoucí popularitou nesezdaných soužití. Výzkum se bude rovněž zaměřovat na otázku, zda a v jaké formě se muži zapojují do výchovy dětí a umožní srovnání rodin manželských a ostatních domácností s dětmi. Tímto způsobem se získá jedinečná informace o tom, jaký podíl mimomanželské plodnosti představují svobodné matky v tradičním smyslu slova, jaký je podíl neprovdaných matek žijících ve faktických manželstvích a jaká je sociální situace neprovdaných matek.

In the traditional society trust used to be rooted in the family background, it formed a part of private sphere. In the opposite the modern democratic society requests from people not only trust to family member, but also another type of trust in other unknown people, as citizens and even type of impersonal trust, for example to state institutions. How are these different types of trust connected? Do they support one another or do they go against each other?
