Vejmola, Čestmír ; Novotný, Jiří (advisor) ; Páleníček, Tomáš (referee)
Psychedelics represent the group of psychotropics, which induce characteristic cognitive, perceptual and emotional symptoms. They are represented by simple indolamines (psilocybin or DMT), ergoline derivatives (LSD), and substituted phenylethylamines (mescaline). This work with a systematic approach to the problem attempts to characterize the underlying basis of physiological effects of psychedelics in brain. After the general characterization of hallucinogens, among which psychedelics belong to, the first part is focused on the common psychological and physiological actions and risks associated with them. Follows the pharmacological characterization of selected representatives especially with regard to their origin, ways of administration, effects, distribution and metabolization in body. A large part is devoted to the description of G-protein-coupled receptors functioning. The principal part is the last one, which describes mechanisms of action of psychedelics at the cellular level such as well as in different brain regions.

Sociological interpretation of hippies movement
Koropecká, Markéta ; Duffková, Jana (advisor) ; Sládek, Jan (referee)
My bachelor thesis explores the hippie movement, which emerged in the middle of the sixties in the United States of America. The theoretical framework consists of sociological concepts of culture, subculture, youth and youth subcultures, communities, communes and social movements. The hippie movement was young people's response to middle class consumerism, which preferred material prosperity to moral and cultural values. The American transcendentalist movement and the Beat Generation can be considered its intellectual precursor. The movement's main characteristic was rejection of middle class values. Therefore, some authors have called it a counterculture. Hippies gave up studies and tangible assets. Typical for them was lack of confidence in the future, interest in oriental philosophy and religion, close relationship to nature, specific clothing style, living in communes and the use of drugs, especially LSD. The movement dissipated at the end of the sixties. Its influence is still evident in the effort to fight for human rights, peace, free network, but also in music and clothing. Some of the hippie movement's ideas are the source of today's youth subcultures and movements. Key words: social movement, youth, community, hippies, LSD
