The subject of the thesis is meanings of the physical exercising presented in the Czech women magazines, which I explored through qualitative content analysis of the articles focused on exercising. Three relevant frames or research areas emerged from foreign literature, which became the frames of the analysis: value of the exercise related to the body, the exercise as possible social field and gender level of these practices. I was specifically interested, if the exercise is presented as activity that helps to create socially disciplined body or individually restituted body for personal needs. Or if the exercise creates specific social field - sphere with specific relationship, rules and capital and if the gender is an important factor, connected to the presentation of the exercises in magazines, focused on women. The results show that the exercise is activity that creates the restituted body so as the disciplined body. It is not possible to define, if it is specific social field. The articles content so positive indications as those, which do not comply with the social field definition. Ideal femininity and ideal woman body should be reached by exercising. This ideal woman identity varies from reader's identity, which magazines define as "common" woman. The gender is an important factor that has...

Individual units of the Integrated Rescue System and preclinical intensive care in drowning - the Police of the Czech Republic, the Fire Rescue Service, the Water Rescue Service - Czech Red Cross
PROCHÁSKA, Pavel
The South Bohemia region is well known for its rivers, lakes and dams. With these great water values it is difficult to prevent drowning, search and rescue work is also influenced by the vast river system. The main goal of my research was to map the technical equipment, personal proficiency and comparing the professional qualifications of the Police force of the Czech Republic, the Fire Rescue Service and the Water Rescue Service in the range of an appointed theme. I chose the qualitative analysis method. The research group consisted of nine individuals {--} members of the researched organizations. They answered my questions very uniformly. I wanted to discuss the relevant topic with the respondents and get to know their opinion. Totally contradicted information was not recorded. Data collection was in the form of interview recordings on a Dictaphone and worked into text. The research conclusions are quite clear. In all respects the Police of the Czech Republic, the Fire Rescue Service and the Water Rescue Service are able to help in drowning cases. Some of these units are relatively well equipped as is necessary (the Fire Rescue Service and the Water Rescue Service), other not so well because of the principal aim (the Police of the Czech Republic). An interesting issue can be noted in both professional organizations (the Police of the Czech Republic and the Fire Rescue Service) about assistance and cooperation with the Water Rescue Service in the case of first aid and help providing. It is unusual that this last organization mentioned is not supported by the government. The research proved elementary disparity between the specialization with great abilities and struggle for existence which they meet every day in the case of the Water Rescue Service. Better legislation could be the answer for their financial difficulties. There is also disproportion in preventing people from doing unsafe activities; a member of the Water Rescue Service can only recommend the people to avoid such dangerous behaviour, but by law he can not force the individuals to obey to his words. The law warrants only this procedure which is astounding.
