The aim of this study was to examine the spatial mobility of homeless people in urban areas, exploring homeless mobility, its drivers, limits and links to personal attributes, and whether there is an association between the extent of spatial activity and an individual’s housing situation. To our knowledge, there has been no prior exhaustive attempt to explore the spatial mobility of homeless people using Global Positioning System (GPS) location devices.

The aim of this article is to investigate the factors that influence the size of activity spaces of homeless men and women in cities. Vulnerable population groups such as the homeless face the risk of mobility challenges that can exacerbate their social exclusion even more through mobility-driven spatial exclusion. The extent of an individual’'s activity space is a key precondition for the daily coping strategies and life opportunities of homeless people.

All experts agree that social housing in the Czech Republic is a necessity. However, one dangerous theme circulates in the discussion: homelessness is reduced to housing, and the debate evokes it can be simply resolve by the existence of social housing.

Survey-based measures of subjective well-being are increasingly often analyzed cross-culturally. However, international comparison of these measures requires measurement invariance. Therefore, the major goal of this study is to investigate the cross-country and cross-time comparability of the 4-item positive and 7-item negative affect scales used in European Social Survey Round 3 (2006) and Round 6 (2012).

Ačkoli se v zahraničí těší kutilství rostoucímu odbornému zájmu, v českém akademickém prostředí se mu prozatím nedostalo větší pozornosti. Připravovaná kniha představuje výsledek snahy tuto mezeru alespoň částečně zaplnit a nabídnout prvotní ucelený pohled na kutilství jako zajímavý fenomén a zároveň rozšířenou praxi se svébytnou historií a bohatou přítomností.

Migration theory and international policy recognises that migrant remittances play significant roles in shaping economic, social, and political transformations in origins and destinations. However, nobody deals with how migrants experience and use values. To contribute to the development of migration theory, we integrate insights from modernization, social remittance, and cleavage frameworks.

Kniha je příspěvkem k obecné sociální teorii. Argumentace je vedena dvojím zájmem. Na jednu stranu je to zájem o problematiku intersubjektivity v sociologii. Výzkum intersubjektivity rozumění, která je předpokladem koordinace jednání mezi jedinci, nabízí alternativu vůči často rozebíranému dilematu mezi individualismem a holismem. Na druhou stranu je to zájem o hermeneutiku, jak je studována ve filosofii.

Kapitola se zabývá vazbou mezi spotřebními preferencemi a vertikálním – třídním postavením v současné české společnosti. Představeny jsou teoretické modely kulturní spotřeby a pozice v sociální struktuře (homologie, individualizace, kulturní všežroutství), jejichž platnost je ověřována na datech z výzkumu spotřebitelských preferencí (MML TGI 2004) a kulturní participace (Kultura v krajích ČR 2011).
