Spirituality in veganism and vegetarianism.
Schejbalová, Eliška ; Spalová, Barbora (advisor) ; Tesárek, Jan (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the topic of spirituality in the field of vegetarianism and veganism. The main goal of this thesis is to find out how and when is the spirituality formed in narratives of the respondents, who are vegetarians or vegans and how do they construct it. The results of this work are obtained using a qualitative research, mostly in form of semi-structured in-depth interviews with sensitivity to the ways that the narratives are constructed. These interviews took place mainly in online space due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This thesis connects several areas of theory, which later appear in the narratives of respondents. The main theoretical framework for this thesis is concept of mindful body by Nancy Scheper- Hughes and Margaret Lock, concept of purity by Mary Douglas, theory of Dark Green Religion by Bron Taylor and views of the boundaries between people and animals by Margo DeMello. This thesis and its conclusions can serve as a basis for subsequent research on the topic, since this thesis formed as a certain view of the field of spirituality in veganism and vegetarianism.
No Grain, No Gain: Vegan Athletes' Self-Perception of Corporeality
Rutová, Simona ; Grygar, Jakub (advisor) ; Orcígr, Václav (referee)
This thesis deals with the corporeality of vegan athletes. It aims to clarify how the members of a specific vegan athlete community perceive their corporeality. It also describes the corporeality shaping process and how the process is affected by the community and by the shared body practices - mainly vegan diet and sports activities. The main concepts concerning this issue are habitus, embodiment, and the mindful body. This thesis's key ideas derive from Merleau-Ponty's views on corporeality, Csordas' embodiment, and Scheper-Hughes's and Lock's mindful body, which provided an analytical framework for this research. The research highlighted the importance of a strong community, which vegan athletes build. They can then act on the bodies of the community members and thus make bodies presenting veganism as sufficient. It is a sport that plays a crucial role in this, as it keeps bodies healthy and makes them strong. Sport thus functions as a defense for their practices, which are in the community's eyes the right way of living and respond to the current environmental crisis and immoral abuse of animals. It is the effort to defend and present veganism as sufficient that influences the practices shared in the researched community. These practices subsequently affect the formation and perception of the...
The influence of veganism on the social life of an individual
Hlavová, Karla ; Orcígr, Václav (advisor) ; Senft, Lukáš (referee)
In this bachelor's thesis, as the name suggests, I deal with the issue of veganism and its subsequent reflection in the social lives of respondents (family, friends, partners, unpleasant situations). I research and clarify life situations that involve a variety of lifestyles and ways of eating. The individual work is divided into the three following parts: the theoretical anchoring of the researched problem, the methodology used and the subsequent research part. In the introductory, theoretical part, I use various concepts to understand veganism from a sociological perspective. In the second, methodological part of the work, I focus on the quantitative exploratory method, data collection, which I obtained through an online questionnaire and a description of the research file. The last, final part is the presentation and interpretation of the obtained results and the conclusions drawn from them. The work brings results confirming the existence of the influence of veganism on the social life of the individual, in each of the mentioned dimensions. The influence occurs mainly in the area of family background, where respondents are most often exposed to prejudice and pressure. The influence of veganism is also felt by the respondents within their social circle, partnerships (eg when choosing a partner)...
Relationship of students of the selected secondary schools to the alternative ways of eating
Fialová Krejzová, Lenka ; Váchová, Alena (advisor) ; Kovaříková, Miroslava (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the relationships and opinions of students of selected secondary schools, which are connected with alternative ways of eating. The theoretical part contains basic information about rational nutrition, individual nutrients, there is a comparison of the food pyramid and a healthy plate. Last but not least, alternative diets are also clarified and then information on five specific types of alternative diets is given. In the individual subchapters, vegetarianism, veganism, raw food, paleo diet and a gluten-free diet are mentioned. The aim of the practical part is to find out the opinion of students of selected secondary schools on alternative ways of eating. These are my chosen secondary schools in the Rakovnicko region. A questionnaire survey is used as a research tool. Based on the data obtained, the questionnaire was evaluated and the results were converted into tables and graphs, which are always commented. 187 respondents answered the questionnaire. It was found that 19 of all respondents have nutrition-related health restrictions. The surprising result is that students did not learn about alternative meals primarily at school, but from their own resources (friends, family, etc.). The results of the questionnaire survey point to the fact that secondary school students...
