New Capitalism as a Cause and a Result of Effectivization of Society
Hrabánková, Anežka ; Balon, Jan (advisor) ; Maršálek, Jan (referee)
Given the breadth of the concept of new capitalism and possible topics that present themselves here, the main objective of this work is especially presentation of new capitalism as reflected in sociological literature and reference to its highly efficient nature. The work is also a reflection on key topics opened by leading theoreticians of contemporary capitalism. Using Weberian sociology, the work seeks to capture the development of capitalism and to grasp new contemporary capitalism. The development of capitalism is described by the development of three important aspects that appear early in modern capitalism which are important during its whole history up to the present. It is the development of the phenomenon of work, consumption and time. For these three phenomena, the presented work deals in particular with their tendency to become increasingly more efficient. Efficiency is part of the rationalization process; the work uses a more suitable term for contemporary Euro-American society - effectivization (efficiency boost of society), due to its ubiquity and topicality, and also due to the fact that current changes are being legitimized under the designation of efficiency. Where the logic of money takes control (at the market), thinking is being rationalized and resources are being used more...

Voluntary and involuntary childlessness: From relatively high birth-rate to absence of children
Hrabánková, Anežka ; Balon, Jan (advisor) ; Pašková, Miroslava (referee)
The aim of presented bachelor work is the problem of progressive reduction of the birth rate from its beginning up to present , when the phenomenon of childlessness is occurred relatively frequently. Intended childlessness begins to be the rightful alternative of living or reproductive strategy. At the same time the number of couples unable to deliver baby from the biological causes continues to increase. These facts weakens the position of parenthood. Subsequently the parenthood is not viewed by the society as a natural and self-evident phenomenon as it was formerly. My work also deals with the phenomenon of voluntary and involuntary childlessness, their extent in the Czech society is evaluated. The view of the society and the childless people themselves concerning this problem is also mentioned.
