Compatibility of opinions on parenting in couples
Hurychová, Alice ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Šprincová, Veronika (referee)
The aim of this study is to compare views on parenting of partners (from a gender perspective) in families caring for children. Changes in women's position in society, their increasing financial contribution to the family budget and therefore economic background influence the opinions about the overall organization of family life, which is reflected in the actual division of parental roles and associated responsibilities. Although the paper focuses primarily on the opinions and ideas about parenting, I did not fail to devote some space also their subsequent practice. Close interaction of people who share a household and raising children, can result in blindness, which in turn creates the feeling of certain conformity of opinion. Parents can sometimes mistakenly believe that their views on parenthood are shared by their partners. In the research I have included ten couples raising two or more children. For the chosen method of semi-structured interviews, I selected respondents from my circle of acquaintances. The choice was quite deliberate, as with many of them I knew for a long time.

The Content Analysis of the Magazine Ona Dnes from the Gender Perspective
Havelková, Michaela ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Valdrová, Jana (referee)
The subject of the dissertation is the content analysis of the magazine "Ona Dnes" from the gender perspective. The main intention will be to analyze the image of women in this magazine in the context of their actual position in the Czech society and underlying medial theories. The image of women how it is presented in media are i.a. the resources of the normative information about what the "right woman" should look like, what desires and ambitions she has to share. That is why the information that media produce is a sort of testimony about the status of women in society - namely from two perspectives. They are prompting the way how women understand themselves and also how they are taken by their surroundings. "Ona Dnes" presents itself as a periodical intended for the modern woman. That is why it is interesting to investigate if the presented constructions of the femininity really show any new aspects or if it is only the old content "dressed in the new coat". At the same time I try to confront my findings with the conclusions of the similar foreign studies. Very interesting theoretical question also is to what extent is the Czech medial production specific (from the gendre perspective). Especially if we talk about the magazine, that is not only some clone of the foreign periodical.
