"Topics from the History of Slacking. Productivity and (Deliberate) Non-productivity from a Cultural Viewpoint"
BRTNÍK, Robert
This Master's thesis aims to analyze the characteristics of slacker characters through interpretations of films belonging to the "slacker cinema" genre. The study focuses on three key conceptswork, leisure, and idlenessanchoring them in their historical contexts while also examining the contemporary semantics of slacking. The author presents slacking not as a negative or malicious act but as a productive negotiation that brings pleasure and a sense of self-freedom to the slacker. The thesis introduces the concept of the productive slacker, who, despite his dependency on commodities within a capitalist society, does not entirely succumb to their allure. This productive slacker is portrayed as a modern flâneur, whose perspective challenges contemporary societal attitudes towards work and leisure. Additionally, the thesis explores the character of the female slacker, comparing her to the male slacker. This comparison highlights not only society's veneration of labor but also addresses issues related to the construct of femininity and the gender-based distribution of work. The concept of slacking is examined from a cultural perspective, analyzing the aforementioned themes against the backdrop of popular culture.

Within the block, there are parks, water areas, promenades, playgrounds, or workout areas. The proposal introduces housing to the location, such as traditional residential units, which are in constant demand, as well as a newly introduced concept of community living, financially accessible to people and families from various social or health disadvantaged groups, or for people who prefer to live in a social environment while maintaining privacy. In addition to housing, this complex brings multifunctional spaces to its surroundings, supporting small businesses in the area and providing them with an attractive space for the growth of their business, whether it be a restaurant, hair salon, or office spaces. A large number of educational institutions in the area provide an opportunity to create space for youth development, which is the focus of this proposal.

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.
