The concept of crisis assistance by participants of social services planning in Liberec
Havránková, Alena ; Pospíšilová, Tereza (advisor) ; Kvašňáková, Lenka (referee)
Society is currently struggling with various negative phenomena, one of which is suicide. According to the latest available sources, the highest rate of suicide in the Czech Republic is in the Liberec region. One possible tool for reducing the suicide rate could be social crisis assistance services. However, when we look at the social services register of the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs of the Czech Republic, we find that crisis assistance is not available in all regions. According to this register, no such service exists in the Liberec region, including its capital city Liberec. Social service planning is essential to community planning in the city of Liberec. How is it possible that this type of service is not available here? To answer this question, it is necessary to go back to the beginning and first ask how this concept is perceived by the involved parties. This thesis aims to provide insight into the understanding of crisis assistance among the parties engaged in community planning in Liberec, and to show how it is reflected in different attitudes in the process of planning social services in the area. Keywords: crisis, crisis assistance, crisis intervention, community planning, community social work, construction of social reality, discourse theory, discursive approaches

Media Discourse Analysis of rigt-wing weblog Altermedia.info
Bártová, Kateřina ; Jirků, Jan (advisor) ; Křeček, Jan (referee)
The thesis called Qualitative Analysis of Media Discourse of the Far-right Blog cz.altermedia.info deals with the discourse analysis of the Czech version of an international project Altermedia.info. Discourse analysis aims at differences between the discourse of the founding editor and the current one and analyses the neo-fascist nature of the blog. The theoretical framework of the analysis is based on the postmarxist theory of discourse introduced by Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe. The theoretical part of the thesis summarizes the findings of researchers who are engaged in discourse analysis (structuralism, poststructuralism, Michel Foucault, Louis Althusser, Norman Fairclough, Teun van Dijk). The thesis also examines how specific meaning is constructed within the nationalist discourse of Altermedia and to what extent a new team of authors contributed to the change of discourse. The analysis identifies the main nodal points, which are involved in the construction of discourse, and examines the antagonistic processes within the two different editors. Discursive analysis reveals particular inclination of the current discourse of Altermedia for the neo-Nazi ideology, and thus indicates the fundamental antagonism between the founding editors and current one.
