‘You, the Young Vietnamese (the “Uninfected”), Simply Cannot Understand Us, the Czechified Bananas’: Young Vietnamese and the Superdiversitication of the Czech New Media SpaceArticles
Jiří Homoláč, Tamah Sherman
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2020, 56(2): 229-257 | DOI: 10.13060/csr.2020.008
This article analyses media texts written in Czech by young Vietnamese from 2008 to 2017. It aims to: a) describe how the authors categorise themselves and determine whether they construct their identity as hybrid; and b) consider whether these texts contribute to the superdiversification of the Czech space. Three identity versions appear in the material: banana children, young ‘uninfected’ Vietnamese, and the younger generation of banana children (BC, YUV, and YG). BC emphasise the hybrid character of their identity, i.e. the necessity of using two languages and behaving in accordance with the norms of two ethnic societies in their everyday...
The Cultural Orientation of Vietnamese Czechs: A Generational ComparisonArticles
Martina Hřebíčková
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2020, 56(2): 197-227 | DOI: 10.13060/csr.2020.007
This article introduces the Czech version of the General Ethnicity Questionnaire (GEQ), which is designed to measure majority and minority cultural orientation. Cultural orientation includes different ways of behaving in various life domains (i.e. language use, eating habits, media preferences, or relationships) and attitudes (cultural pride and preference). The questionnaire was administered to two groups of Vietnamese living in the Czech Republic. The second-generation group (N = 279) is made up of ethnic Vietnamese who were born in the Czech Republic and the 1.5-generation group (N = 119) is formed by ethnic Vietnamese born in Vietnam who came to...
‘It Depends Who You Meet’: The One-Child Family and Linked Life Paths’Articles
Radka Dudová
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2020, 56(2): 165-195 | DOI: 10.13060/csr.2020.006
Single-child families are a phenomenon that, alongside childlessness, is contributing to the trend of declining fertility, especially in the countries of central and eastern Europe, including the Czech Republic. This article presents the results of a qualitative study based on problem-centred interviews with parents of a single child who had originally planned to have more children aimed at exploring their understanding of the main factors that led to them having one child, when two-child families are still the preferred normative model in Czech society. The analysis presents the main lines of argumentation that the respondents used to try to explain...
Who Wants to Have Just One child and Who Wants to Remain Childless? The Factors behind Men’s and Women’s low-fertility IntentionsArticles
Hana Hašková, Kristýna Pospíšilová
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2020, 56(2): 131-164 | DOI: 10.13060/csr.2020.005
Remaining childless or having just one child are two different experiences and each is attached to a different social status. However, they can also be viewed through a unifying lens as phenomena that contribute to low fertility. Theories that seek to explain low fertility often attribute both phenomena to the same causes. This article examines what factors are connected to a person’s intention to remain childless or to have just one child and whether it is possible to consider intentions to remain childless or have just one child as low-fertility plans caused by the same factors. Drawing on data from the Life Course 2010 survey and theories...

'Tied to a wheelchair': How the absence of civil inattention Serves as a Spatial barrier to electric wheelchair usersArticles
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...
Regional differences in attitudes towards international migration by secondary school students and their determinantsArticles
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...
The Intergenerational Transmission of Generalised Trust and a Willingness to Take RisksArticles
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,...
Dealing with Parental Conflicts at the Child Protection Departments in the Czech Republic: Use of Defensive Practice and Its FactorsArticles
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...

Educational Pathways and their Role in Occupational and Class Attainment in Czech SocietyArticles
Michael L. Smith
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2019, 55(6): 853-878 | DOI: 10.13060/00380288.2020.55.6.494
This article introduces a new approach to the study of the association between education and socio-economic outcomes in the Czech Republic: educational pathways, which are the primary channels of study involving at least two educational transitions with qualitatively different tracks. Based on Czech Household Panel Study data, I operationalise Czech educational pathways between secondary and tertiary education and examine the role of eight different educational paths on ESeC-derived social classes, contrasted by parental education, gender, and birth cohort. Based on the ordered logit model, I compute the predicted probability that specific educational...
Is Education Becoming a Weaker Determinant of Occupation? Educational Expansion and Occupational Returns to Education in 30 European CountriesArticles
Tomáš Katrňák, Tomáš Doseděl
Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2019, 55(6): 821-851 | DOI: 10.13060/00380288.2020.55.6.493
This article examines the relationship between education and occupation over the course of educational expansion. The authors analyse European Union Labour Force Survey (EU-LFS) data from 2014, 2015, and 2016 from 30 European countries and work with 12 graduated cohorts defined by the year in which they left the education system (2003–2014). They use a multilevel model approach and measure education in both absolute and relative terms. The results show that during the time of educational expansion there was no change in the relationship between education and occupation if education is conceptualised in absolute terms. However, a change in this...
