Probe into the soul of a table tennis player
 NEUMAN, Jiří
The thesis aims to awaken the reader's curiosity about the study of leisure. Through qualitative research, there is an attempt to outline the experience of leisure through the eyes of professional table tennis players who were interviewed to gain insight into their lives. Furthermore, through an interpretative phenomenological analysis of the data, an evaluation of the research has taken place. The emergent themes related to leisure were further explored through other literature that related directly or indirectly to the themes. The whole thesis is a subjective view of leisure through the perspective of the author who is also an active table tennis player. The thesis is indirectly divided into three parts, from the author's theoretical considerations, to the methodology, to the evaluation of the research results. The thesis should serve to encourage in-depth exploration of leisure through people's individual experiences.

Consumerism and the environment - geographical and some other contexts
 NEUMAN, Jiří
The thesis has a clear aim to outline the issue of consumerism and its inevitable development in contemporary modern society. There is an attempt to show its origins, practices and consequences. It also seeks to draw attention to the increased threat of ecological catastrophe associated with consumerism that could arise from the consequences of poor waste management in developing countries, particularly on the African continent. This region has been chosen as an ideal non-consumerist world. The United States of America, on the other side, is presented as a contrast to Africa as a typical country where consumerism is high, and its population is the world's biggest polluter in terms of waste production. The theoretical part relies on expert heuristics, which are supported by electronic resources in the form of various projects and analyses that have been previously carried out and now used to investigate the problem described.
