Tento článek přináší do debaty o segregaci migrantů poznatky z Česka jako nové destinace zahraniční migrace. Článek zkoumá vývoj prostorového rozmístění bydliště šesti hlavních skupin migrantů, definovaných na základě státního občanství, ve vybraných velkých městech Česka s využitím populačního rastru. K tomu využívá nově dostupná data z Cizineckého informačního systému a index prostorové odlišnosti jako míru běžně využívanou ve výzkumech rezidenční segregace.
V současném Česku dlouhodobě roste počet bydlících cizinců a otázka jejich soužití s majoritou se dotýká řady oblastí, od trhu práce, bydlení, přes sociální integraci až po bezpečnostní politiku státu.
This article details our attempts at making sense of an ostalgic heterotopic space. We relay here our analysis of staying in and exploring a disused air raid shelter built during WWII, converted into a fallout shelter at the beginning of the Cold War and recently repurposed in an anti-communist museum/tourist hotel/ostalgic canteen called 10Z Bunker.
Kniha se věnuje tematice inkluze ve vzdělávání. Na výzkumných datech dokumentuje, jak učitelé a zástupci vedení základních škol (ZŠ) vnímají a hodnotí opatření spojená s kurikulární a legislativní proměnou, především s ohledem na tzv. „inkluzivní“ novelu školského zákona (zákon č. 82/2015 Sb.).
This chapter explores part-time employment in Central and Eastern European countries (CEE) as compared to Western Europe. The aim is to examine the relationship between part-time work and labour utilisation in CEE, and to evaluate whether a potential expansion of part-time employment may facilitate growth in labour utilisation. The analyses on panel data identify the main determinants of part-time employment and the key factors that limit it in CEE.
Kniha analyzuje postoje českých občanů k sociálnímu státu v delší časové perspektivě (1996‒2006‒2016). Díky tomu mohou autoři systematicky prozkoumat důležité teoretické otázky, které v této knize strukturují do pěti hlavních výzkumných témat: 1. vývoj postojů k sociálnímu státu; 2. vývoj vztahu mezi socio-ekonomickým statusem a postoji k sociálnímu státu; 3. generační podmíněnost postojů k sociálnímu státu; 4. vývoj vztahu mezi postoji k sociálnímu státu a volebním chováním; 5.
The article explores how homeless people make places in the public space, while revealing some of the overlooked effects these places may have on the wider city. The article relies on extensive ethnographic research and media coverage analysis of a place called Eskalátory (the Escalators) in Pilsen, a second-order city in Czechia. Eskalátory is part of an underpass with a four-lane road, a tramway, and four outdoor escalators, altogether, forming a specific urban assemblage.
We interviewed separately partners in twelve CR copreneurial couples to understand their possibly divergent perspectives on motives for copreneurship. Blenkinsopp and Owens argue that family businesses are a uniquely hybrid organizations that blend economic and caring concerns. Our analysis is guided by a structured-agency approach that focuses on how societal norms, the economy, and government policies influence entrepreneurial decisions.
Despite the fact that not having a partner is a strong predictor for remaining childless, few studies have explored the heterogeneity of partnership trajectories among childless persons. This article fills the gap in knowledge about the pathways to childlessness in Central Europe by exploring the within-group diversity of partnership trajectories among childless persons between the ages of 18 and 40 under state socialism and during the post-1989 transformation in the Czech Republic.
This article examines age homophily on a Czech online dating site using real user data. With a sample of 10 563 unique users and the aid of negative binomial regression, we test two hypotheses based on previous studies of online dating - namely, that men and women show different partner preferences with respect to age and that women in particular favour age homophily in their contacts. The model results support these hypotheses.
This paper proposes a novel methodology for the estimation of subjective poverty lines (SPLs) using a discrete information approach that obviates the potential discomfort of asking respondents directly about the value of their individual SPL. To estimate income SPLs, we utilize the Youden index. Using a simulated data-set, we first show that the level of bias between the estimated SPLs and their corresponding actual values is low.
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 chapter gives a thematic introduction into the edited volume “The Rural as a Cultural Category. Contemporary Perspectives of Cultural Studies on Urban-Rural Relations” edited by Manuel Trummer and Anja Decker.
This paper estimates the youth employment effects of minimum wages in the Visegrád countries: Czechia, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia. The analyses are based on a regional panel dataset for the period 2003–16. Our results indicate that changes in minimum wages measured as a ratio of regional average wages have not negatively affected youth employment rates in the Visegrád countries at the national level.
The book explores "rurality" as a cultural category. In 18 chapters, European ethnologists and cultural anthropologists discuss the methodological and conceptual approaches that can be used to capture and describe the ›rural‹ beyond generalizations, causal speculations and dichotomous thinking.
The chapter starts with a brief description of the church-state relationship in the Czech lands / Czech Republic in the last century. As a consequence of the massive turning away from the churches, the country is one of the most secular regions around the world. Despite the low numbers of adherents, the churches attempt to remain powerful players on the political and public scene(s).

„Publikace mapuje místa domácího vzdělávání, která byla dosud zkoumána jen málo, nebo vůbec, v tom spočívá její velká zásluha. Autoři využili širokou škálu výzkumných a analytických metod a podařilo se jim vytvořit významný příspěvek k poznání rozsahem sice malého, ale z hlediska vývoje inovativních přístupů velice důležitého segmentu českého vzdělávacího systému.“ (Mgr. Jaroslava Simonová, Ph.D., Ústav výzkumu a rozvoje vzdělávání, Pedagogická fakulta Univerzity Karlovy).
This paper focuses on a grassroots community movement address-ing climate change: the transnational Transition (Towns) movement. While this movement has mainly spread to Anglophone countries, it is almost en-tirely absent from Eastern Europe and the Czech Republic in particular.
This article explores young people’s imaginations of their future family life. Based on qualitative research among young people in North Bohemia, it considers social reproduction and change within the domain of gendered labour and parenting. This is done on the backdrop of post-1989 transformation of Czech society, where drives towards individualisation and diversification of the life course stand against discourses and policies supporting separate gender roles.
