Support for income redistribution and its determinants in Europe between 2002 and 2019
 Petrúšek, Ivan ; Linek, Lukáš (advisor) ; Katrňák, Tomáš (referee) ; Gerbery, Daniel (referee)
This cumulative dissertation consists of four research papers and examines support for income redistribution in Europe between 2002 and 2019. All analyses use the first nine rounds of the European Social Survey (ESS) merged with country-level contextual information from external databases (OECD, Eurostat, and SWIID). The reported results are fully reproducible. The descriptive analysis shows how trends in redistribution support differ by welfare regime. Except for a few countries, aggregate redistribution support was relatively stable over the studied period. Material self-interest theories conceptually frame and motivate the conducted analyses. The main research themes focus on the contextual effects of unemployment rates on pro-redistributive attitudes and how being unemployed and personal experience with long-term unemployment correlate with redistribution support. Results demonstrate that country-level structural unemployment positively correlates with aggregate redistribution support, whereas cyclical unemployment does not generally correlate with aggregate redistribution support in Europe. At the individual level, the unique analyses demonstrate that controlling for experience with long-term unemployment dramatically reduces the effect size of being unemployed, thus questioning almost unison...

"The World's Biggest Problems, the World's Biggest Market Opportunities": Contours of Conscious Capitalism in the Czech Republic

The thesis is the result of a long-term ethnographic research on socially responsible start-ups in Prague and presents conscious capitalism through three case studies. The first study focuses on the question of work ethic and subjectivity of conscious entrepreneurs and workers and the dynamics of their interrelationship in enterprises. The second study shifts the focus to the sphere of socially beneficial production and the creation of conscious products, and analyses in detail the operation of one social enterprise. The theme of the third case study is the relation of conscious capitalism to shareholder capitalism, which it on the one hand criticizes, but on the other hand builds on and uses for its own development. This dissertation belongs to the critical social science studies that address the ethical turn in capitalism (Bandinelli 2017; Chiapello 2013; Land & Taylor 2014; Morozov 2013), although its own contribution stems primarily from the research focus on the inside of the small start- ups. The work presents conscious entrepreneurship...
