Marta Vohlídalová

Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2018, 54(1): 3-34 | DOI: 10.13060/00380288.2018.54.1.394  

The paper focuses on the changes that have occurred in women's academic research careers and compares two generations: women who built their career under state socialism (before 1989) and the contemporary young generation of women. It aims to contribute to the discussion of how the current transformation of science and the academic work environment has impacted gender equality and women's careers in academia. A life-course approach is used to analyse the interplay between individual, institutional, and structural barriers in women's careers. Drawing on in-depth narrative interviews, the analysis focuses on the interaction between academic research...

The Use of Preschool Education in the Czech Republic: Who Can't Get a Spot in Preschool?

Lenka Slepičková, Petr Fučík

Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2018, 54(1): 35-62 | DOI: 10.13060/00380288.2018.54.1.395  

This article seeks to contribute to the debate on social stratification in Czech education and at the preschool level in particular. It draws on secondary data from several surveys and examines whether the use of preschool varies by parental education and income. Combined with data on preferred employment regimes, the article explores the question of whether parents with higher levels of education and income are advantaged when it comes to their children attending preschool. The results show that the use of preschool facilities is relatively uniform across Czech households. While preschool attendance is not very common among children up to the age...

Alena Pařízková, Ema Hrešanová, Alena Glajchová

Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2018, 54(1): 63-100 | DOI: 10.13060/00380288.2018.54.1.396  

When the experiences of migration and becoming a mother intersect, the context and conditions of this have implications for the health of the women and their children. This article presents an overview of social-science research on health and pregnancy among migrant women and on the perinatal and postpartum care they receive. Research on 124 studies on this subject revealed that there are three main themes associated with maternal health in this context: (1) How women are defined and categorised as migrants: This is often based on a single indicator, country of origin or birth. This creates a simplified and homogenising category that then also serves...

'It's Raining, Grandpa, Let's Go Out! So We Went.' Grandfathering as an Essential Role for Older Men

Tatiana Sedláková, Lucie Galčanová, Andrea Bělehradová

Sociologický časopis / Czech Sociological Review 2018, 54(1): 101-126 | DOI: 10.13060/00380288.2018.54.1.397  

The study examines the experiences of contemporary older Czech men specifically in their role as grandfathers. Despite the great body of research devoted to the issues of grandparenthood, most attention, both locally and internationally, has been given to women and grandmotherhood. To overcome this shortcoming, we present findings based on eleven qualitative interviews conducted with men with diverse grandparenting experiences and performing various forms of caring practices. Grandparenting is a negotiated, relational, and highly gendered social role, which we explored in our research through our respondents' narratives focused on everydayness and...
