Zibner, Rahel ; Svoboda, Karel (advisor) ; Ledeneva, Alena (referee)
This research deals with irregular female migration from Ukraine to Italy for employment as caregivers to the elderly. The main questions to be addressed are: 'What are the reasons for Ukrainian women to migrate irregularly to such a large extent to Italy? Which important aspects are connected to their employment as a caregiver to the elderly from the individual point of view of Ukrainian women? In this thesis I want to explain the reasons for Ukrainian women to take up work as irregular caregivers in Italy, giving insight into the organization of daily life of irregular Ukrainian care givers. Practical examples will be given that examine the help women receive from Ukrainian professional and private networks. Despite information gaps, the combination of expert and migrant interviews in combination with the analysis of research studies and secondary sources produced important findings on this topic. Firstly, irregular female migration is economically motivated and women are driven to Italy through specific push and pull factors. Secondly, employment and daily life as a caregiver to the elderly in Italy entails economic advantages, but psychological disadvantages for Ukrainian women. 1

Seniors as a specific group in the process of lifelong learning
Tučková, Karolína ; Vališová, Alena (referee) ; Pelikán, Jiří (advisor)
My thesis focuses on discussing and analyzing the problems of seniors' education, mostly from the theoretical point of view. The whole theme is divided into six chapters. The first part briefly describes the historical development of education of seniors. The second chapter is concentrated on the importance of seniors' education, both from the view of society (the emphasis is placed on population growth) and from the view of seniors. An important part of this chapter is also a motivation for late life learning. The third and the fourth parts are more focused on the process of education. In the third chapter I depict old age as a developmental stage and also the specificities of the elderly in the learning process, including a description of changes in cognitive functions that occur and have a considerable impact on the learning process. The fourth chapter is focused on gerontological didactics. The fifth chapter defines the concept of lifelong learning. The sixth summarizes the basic educational opportunities for senior citizens in the Czech Republic.

Consumer society, materialistic value orientation and quality of life
Rendlová, Markéta ; Hnilica, Karel (advisor) ; Soukup, Václav (referee)
Práce je věnována srovnání hlavních pojetí materialismu ve společenských vědách tak, jak byly formulovány v pracích Ronalda F. lngleharta, Russela Belka, Marshy L. Richinsové a představitelů "rochesterské školy" Edwarda L. Deciho, Richarda M. Ryana a Tima Kassera. Ronald F. lnglehart vnesl do západní společenské vědy koncepci hodnotové změny od materialismu k postmaterialismu. K materialismu přistupuje jako k hodnotové orientaci, která se utvářela či utváří během vývoje společnosti, liší se mezi generacemi a na níž má vliv ekonomický růst. Podle tohoto autora dochází u poválečné generace ke změně hodnot, a to směrem od materialistických, jejichž cílem je především zajištění ekonomického dostatku, k tzv. postmaterialistickým hodnotám, které reflektují podmínky ekonomického bezpečí. Výsledky řady provedených mezinárodních srovnávacích výzkumů však nepostihují individuální rozdíly v hodnotové orientaci členů zkoumaných společností. Na rozdíl od R. lngleharta se Russel Belk snaží tyto individuální rozdíly v úrovni materialistické orientaci jedince postihnout. Podle něj se spolu s vývojem společnosti mění také člověk a některé jeho typické sklony reprezentují jeho vztah k materiálním objektům. Materialismus tak připisuje do značné míry vnitřním individuálním rozdílům v osobnosti a chápe jej jako osobnostní rys....
