This book is a contribution to general social theory. The arguments herein are guided by two interests. On the one hand is the interest in the topic of intersubjectivity in sociology.

On the other hand, there is the interest in hermeneutics as studied in philosophy.

This article informs about the results of an ongoing sociological research on local responses to climate change that appear in the Czech context. The argument departs from a qualitative analysis of in-depth interviews with experts whose professional work relates to researching or informing about climate change and to formulation of adaptation measures and responses to climate change, or to environmental policy-making in general.

For decades, research on democracy has produced evidence that the peoples of countries in Central Europe are less satisfied with the way democracy works in their countries than people in Western Europe. Using the data from the European Social Survey (ESS) I explore, how satisfaction with the way democracy works (SWD) changed in these countries between 2004 and 2014 and test the impact of satisfaction with the present state of the economy and trust in parliament on SWD.

V ČR stále roste počet absolventek vysokých škol, včetně doktorských programů. Podíl žen ve vědě však od roku 2000 klesá. Kam se všechny ty nadané studentky poděly, když jim nikdo ve vědecké kariéře nebrání? Aneb proč někomu nebránit není to samé jako dát mu rovnou šanci.

Pracovní podmínky akademiček a akademiků v ČR výrazně ovlivňuje jak národní systém financování vědy a výzkumu, tak personální politika jejich pracovišť. Minulý týden jsme se věnovaly prvně jmenovanému faktoru, nyní se zastavíme u toho druhého. Jak české vědecké instituce přistupují ke svému personálnímu řízení?
