Generational Differences in Approach to Principles of Social-policy
HORELICOVÁ, Lucie
The main objective of the submitted thesis is to show the differences in the preference of principles of social policy between the generations 20 to 25 and 40 to 45 years, the extent and means of participation in the aforesaid representatives in public life and their demonstration of liberal values in today´s society. This work characterizes the values of the Czech society and emphasizes their displacement in the last twenty years. The theoretical part is focused on the characteristics of the basic principles of social policy, the definition of values and determinants enabling the formation of value orientations and attitudes. The main objective of this thesis is to identify specific social and politic principles which are fully acknowledged by both generations. The findings of generational differences regarding the participation in public life were set as the main goal. The younger generation inclines to the principle of social solidarity, justice and participation within the social policy scheme. The older generation prefers the principle of social solidarity, justice and participation. There were no remarkable differences found in terms of the participation in public life. The most fundamental difference is the form and frequency of volunteer service provision. Two main hypotheses were appointed for further research. The first hypothesis states that the preference of liberal values is higher for today´s generation between 20 and 25 than for the older generation. The second hypothesis assumes that the participation in public life of the younger generation involves physical activity more than financial contribution. The results of the survey did not prove the first hypothesis. The values of the generation between 20 and 25 years are not dramatically different from the values of the older generation. However, the second hypothesis was confirmed. Active participation in public life is a predomination regarding the younger generation.The necessary data were collected by means of a quantitative research questionnaire. The questionnaires were distributed amongst 156 respondents representing the younger generation and 102 respondents representing the older generation. The results of this thesis can be used as further study material for social policy and political science education, or as an information source for municipalities and non-governmental organizations regarding the participation of citizens in public life.
