THE VIEW OF TECHNOPARTY CZECHTEK FROM THE SIDE OF TECHNO SUPPORTERS AND POLICEMEN
BALKOVÁ, Ivana
Technoparty CzechTek-the open air festival of electronic music, became the most shown and popular media subjekt in the summer 2005. Festivals are typical for young people who don´t want to be the part of consumer society. They want to be free and this music is the way how to show it. Problem is that people usually don´t understand this culture and don´t agree by these actions. Police intervened against techno supporters in 2005. A lot of people were injured. This intervention induced inconsistent opinions in general public. There is lot of friends from different social groups in my life. On the one hand I know people acknowledging alternative cultures, on the other hand I have a lot of friends who are policemen. These groups are very different. That´s why this theme became great oportunity for me to confront oppinions of both sides from impartial position. I know this one is quite controversial and unusual. That´s why it came such a big challenge to me. This bachelor work is the way how to open up it to the general public, because it´s very actual at this time. The research was made up in groups of members of disciplinary forces and techno supporters, who were at the technoparty CzechTek 2005. The respondents used anonymous questionnaries. The suppositions related to findings an opinions of media influence, drug problems and political influence. The first hypothesis confirmed, that media influnced oppinions of society to problems of technoparty. The second hypothesis confirmed, that members of techno subculture are perceived like drug users. The third hypothesis confirmed, that participants of technoparty CzechTek 2005 percieve cause after technoparty like politically influenced.
