Kateřina Hejnová, Johana Chylíková
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2020, 56(1): 3-27 | DOI: 10.13060/csr.2020.001
This study focuses on the approaches used by Czech social workers operating in the field of child protection to resolve parental conflicts and looks specifically at their inclination to employ defensive practice. Defensive practice involves prioritising regulations and prescribed rules over the interests of clients, i.e. parents and children. The aim of this study is to verify, with the help of a questionnaire, the theoretical connections between the use of defensive practice and several factors that represent working conditions and external pressures. The research indicates that the factors connected with the use of defensive practice to deal with...
The Intergenerational Transmission of Generalised Trust and a Willingness to Take Risks
Jan Klusáček, Dana Hamplová
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2020, 56(1): 29-55 | DOI: 10.13060/csr.2020.002
The article examines the intergenerational transmission of generalised trust and willingness to take risks among Czechs. Data from the Czech Household Panel Survey are used to compare levels of generalised trust and willingness to take risks among parents and their offspring between the ages of 15 and 26. The analyses confirm a similarity of attitudes between parents and children, but indicate differences according to the parent's sex. While a statistically significant similarity is observed between mothers and their children, fathers form a more heterogeneous group. The analyses also find a higher level of trust among children from Catholic families,...
Regional differences in attitudes towards international migration by secondary school students and their determinants
Jiří Hasman, Pavlína Divínová
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2020, 56(1): 57-83 | DOI: 10.13060/csr.2020.003
In recent years Czech public discourse has been highlighting the belief that there are profound and ever-deepening cleavages within Czech society that also have a significant geographic dimension. One of the issues on which public opinion differs greatly in different regions is the perception of migrants and migration in general. The aim of this paper is therefore to evaluate the extent to which this perception indeed differs across regions, and what factors can explain the variation. For this purpose, a questionnaire survey was fielded among secondary-school students in three Czech cities, which proved the existence of significant regional differences...
'Tied to a wheelchair': How the absence of civil inattention Serves as a Spatial barrier to electric wheelchair users
Robert Osman, Hana Porkertová
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2020, 56(1): 85-107 | DOI: 10.13060/csr.2020.004
The article is based on disability geography and draws on the social-geographic conception of relational space, which is perceived as being constantly created, never finished, heterogeneous, and embodied, and not a space that is given and everywhere the same. It offers a specific way of linking the discursive and material dimensions of disability, which intersect in the concept of social space, and refers to Lefebvre's trialectics of production - spatial practices, the representation of space, and spaces of representations. To analyse the mutual production of social space and social bodies, we use Goffman's concept of civil inattention. We ask how...
