Pilnáček, Matouš ; Buriánek, Jiří (advisor) ; Suša, Oleg (referee)
This thesis analyzes the development of postmaterialism in the Czech Republic. Specifically, it deals with the effects that might cause a slight decrease between measurements in 1999 and 2008. The theoretical part of the thesis presents basic concepts of postmaterialism, as defined by Ronald Inglehart, and selected critique of the concept. The second part is an exploratory analysis of research European Value Study, which shows that there is still present a generational growth of postmaterialism. in Czech population and that the decrease is likely to be most affected by the economic situation in the everyday life of the respondents. Based on the theory and exploratory analysis three hypotheses are formulated about the influences on the development of postmaterialism in the Czech Republic between 1999 and 2008. The first hypothesis about the media impact of the financial crisis has been falsified. The following hypotheses about the effects of inflation and fuel prices to postmaterialism have not been falsified and must be taken into account. The conclusions have mainly methodological character, which is claimed to affect the context of questioning the development of postmaterialism.
