In contrast, the term paradigm as introduced by Thomas Khun and used in science, assumes the existence and superiority of one the newest paradigm. This thesis discusses similarities and differences in formulating paradigms in Social Work and science. It uses the concept of social functioning to describe and explain paradigms in Social Work.

PETRÁŠKOVÁ, Renata
This thesis deals with a housing allowance provided by the social support system, which is an important instrument of the state housing policy, the purpose of which is the contribution to households towards housing costs. In the theoretical part housing and its importance and housing policy is described, the role of the state in housing policy and the instruments of housing policy are also mentioned. Other chapters are devoted to the characteristics of the state social support system and the description of the housing allowance itself - its history and current legislation.The main objective was to determine what proportion of social benefits from the state social support system is made up by housing allowances. Partial research objectives are to find out the structure of housing allowance recipients, the factors influencing the allowance level and whether the number of new applications evolves over time. To achieve these objectives, a quantitative method was used, the secondary data analysis technique. The research respondents consisted of all applicants for a housing allowance in the years 2008 ? 2010, administered by the Labour Office in České Budějovice.The research results have confirmed the predetermined hypothesis that the number of newly filed applications for housing allowances shows a growing trend. The hypothesis assuming that with the increasing number of members in a household the sum of housing allowance is also increased, has not been not confirmed. The third hypothesis assuming that a higher housing allowance is always received by applicants who rent a flat has not been not confirmed. The presented results may serve as a teaching aid for the subject social policy, or to experts and officials from the public administration field.
