Development and Validation of the Ultra-Short Version of the Identity Style Inventory (US-ISI-5) Among Czech Adolescents
Adolescence and the transition to adulthood represent critical periods for identity formation, with a coherent and stable sense of identity being a key component of psychosocial development and functioning in different social roles throughout one’s life. In their decision-making processes, individuals mainly employ three socio-cognitive strategies – informational, normative, and diffuse/avoidant – each of which can be measured by the Identity Style Inventory (ISI). However, the traditional vers…

Together in the ordinary world: The alignment between populist discourse and lower-middle-class discourse on class and socioeconomic hierarchy
This paper contributes to the sociological study of populism by examining the alignment between meanings embedded in Czech populist discourse and those present in Czech lower-middle-class discourse on socioeconomic hierarchy and social class. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, the study integrates political science conceptualizations of populism with the sociological framework of moral and cultural symbolic boundaries related to social class. Employing a qualitative methodology, the study draws on in-dept…

Involved Fathers and Intensive Parenting in Czechia: Norms and Fathers’ Contextualised Practices
Intensive parenting norms that emphasise high parental investment to optimise child development are increasingly prevalent in advanced economies. Although motherhood has been widely studied, fatherhood remains underexplored, especially in contexts like Czechia, where support for shared childcare between parents is limited. Using data from the Czech ISSP 2022 and qualitative interviews with Czech middle‐class fathers and mothers (2022–2024), this study examines how intensive parenting norms shape the views …
Reinforced by the energy crisis: Nuclear revival and public opinion in the Czech Republic
As a low-carbon baseload source, nuclear energy is experiencing a revival in policy toward climate-neutrality targets, which has been accompanied by changes in public opinion following the 2021–2023 energy crisis. This article compares data from three representative public opinion surveys (2021, 2022, and 2023) to understand the substantial rise in acceptance of nuclear energy in the Czech Republic. Our hypothesis-driven research employs multiple ordinary least squares regressions and constructs two types of…

The Microbiopolitics of Novel Foods: The Pro- and Antibiotic Implications of Cultivated Meat and Aquaponic Farming
As conventional agricultural practices reach their limits, humanity is turning to innovative methods of food production. Using Heather Paxson’s concept of microbiopolitics (2012) as a framework that highlights how microbial life is integrated into social governance, particularly in food production and safety, this article explores the role of microbes in cultivated meat and aquaponic farming. It examines how researchers and producers engage with microbes and considers the potential scenarios of human-microbi…

Sympathy for the strong leader in Europe
The rule of a strong leader above the law was found acceptable to a certain extent among 52 per cent of ESS Round 10 respondents from 30 European countries. Literature suggests that support for a strong leader is driven by individual and political factors, and individual and societal threats. The effect of individual factors and individual threats on willingness to submit to a strong leader supports the plausibility of the radicalising thesis. Adherence to strong leaders is affected by authoritarian upbringing…

Reassessing poverty measurement in Europe using a cash-flow-informed residual-income framework
We develop a cash-flow-informed residual-income (RI) framework that subtracts non-discretionary expenditures (housing costs, loan payments, transportation) from disposable income (DI) to reassess poverty in Europe. Using EU-SILC 2020 microdata and Eurostat methodology, we estimate and compare RI- and DI-based poverty rates. The RI results show higher poverty prevalence and stronger alignment with subjective hardship. Poverty-status transitions and subgroup analyses indicate mortgage holders, renters, and trans…

Herbář druhé sklizně: Čím se stávají léčivé rostliny v době průmyslové toxicity?
Léčivé rostliny jsou běžnou součástí každodenní péče o zdraví. V důsledku průmyslových činností 20. a 21. století ale půdu, krajinu a živé tkáně organismů prostupují rizikové látky, jako jsou mikroplasty nebo tzv. věčné chemikálie. Tyto látky se mohou vyskytovat v množstvích, které nepřesahují povolené limity, nicméně jejich kombinace mohou tvořit chemické koktejly s nepředvídatelnými efekty.
Publikace se zaměřuje na chemické koktejly, které mohou být metabol…

Small Municipalities and Ukrainian Migrant Crisis
The chapter analyses how small municipalities in Czechia responded to the influx of refugees from Ukraine following the Russian invasion in February 2022. Situated within debates on multilevel governance and local crisis management, it asks: (1) what national framework was adopted for managing Ukrainian migration and what role was assigned to municipalities, (2) what problems small municipalities faced during different phases of the crisis, (3) how they addressed these problems, and (4) how higher tiers of pub…

Navigating the Pandemic: Coordination and Communication in Small Czech Municipalities
The chapter examines how small Czech municipalities navigated the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on coordination, communication and crisis governance in a highly fragmented local government system. Drawing on national crisis legislation, epidemiological data on incidence by municipal size, and 24 semi-structured interviews with mayors of municipalities under 2,000 inhabitants, it analyses both the structural context and local actors' perceptions and practices. The findings show that the early phase of the pandemi…

A comparative study of socio-economic segregation in European capital city-regions: From segregation to desegregation?
Previous research based on 2001 and 2011 census data indicated rising levels of residential segregation between socio-economic groups in many large city-regions in Europe as well as globally. Rising segregation is an important societal concern, as place of residence plays a crucial role in shaping access to urban opportunities. Residential isolation can be especially harmful for the most vulnerable groups. Income inequality was identified as the primary driver of this segregation. The current paper extends com…

Discriminated group identity and satisfaction with democracy in Europe
Although equality and nondiscrimination constitute the main principles of liberal democracy, democracies produce a diversity of social identities that are sensitive to discrimination and simultaneously challenge their legitimacy. This study examines the relationship between membership in groups discriminated against and satisfaction with the way democracy works (SWD). An analysis of the ESS Round 5–9 data from 18 countries has shown that the percentage of individuals identified with discriminated groups has …

Czechia: Policy insights on how culture influences access to finance
Removing barriers to the creation and growth of businesses, including for women entrepreneurs, is a common policy goal of governments around the world. It is estimated there were 34 million “missing entrepreneurs” in OECD countries in 2023 (people who would be entrepreneurs if their social group – women, youth, seniors, immigrants – had a business startup rate equal to men aged 30 to 49). As many as 70% (24.8 million) of those “missing” were women.
The likelihood of people getting involved in entr…

The role of siblings and family environment in the development of anti-immigrant attitudes in adolescence.
Family as the main socialization environment involves mainly parents and siblings. The importance of parents for attitudinal development in adolescence is well-researched. Theoretically, other family members like siblings are also expected to play a role in attitudinal formation. Still, and primarily due to data limitations, siblings are rarely accounted for in empirical studies. In this study, we examine the role of siblings in the development of anti-immigrant attitudes in adolescence (10–17 years), with a…
Perceived costs and benefits and public support for climate policies
Public support for climate policies remains limited, partly due to perceived economic costs. However, using survey data from four European countries, we show that support is more strongly related to perceived benefits than costs. This suggests that public discourse has overemphasized costs. To build broader support, advocates should focus on communicating the benefits and effectiveness of climate action, rather than merely addressing concerns about economic burdens.…
