Right to the city and spatial plan
Orcígr, Václav ; Balon, Jan (advisor) ; Maršálek, Jan (referee)
This paper focuses on the concept of right to the city and tries to link it to the topic of spatial planning in Prague. It introduces the view on the world of global neoliberalism, which comes from critical social geography and was elaborated especially by David Harvey, but originates from the French philosopher Henri Lefebvre. Through the optics of this approach the paper tries to grasp the complex problems of spatial planning on the example of Prague. Through a qualitative questioning of the representatives of CSO's, the paper attempts to show the relevance of the concept for public participation in decision making in urban development. The thesis presents a fundamental critical frame of theories, which evaluates the condition of society in the stage of late neoliberalism, and also the basic approaches to the city in social theory including the context of post-socialism. From these it continues to the analysis of urban space presenting a belief, which gives to the inhabitants of a city the right to make decisions about its shape instead of the capital. It puts emphasis on demarcation of the role of social movements and also the concept of place attachment, which becomes one of the key determinants for the involvement of inhabitants into the processes of urban development. The paper uses the...

Rhythm in Urban Space and Rhythmanalysis - Prague example
Smrčina, Michal ; Marcelli, Miroslav (advisor) ; Jarošová, Emília (referee)
The study aims to present the notion of rhythmanalysis in relation to the city environment and aims to apply the theory to field research. The theoretical part focuses on the semiotic conception of the rhythm, on the position of rhythmanalysis in the work of its father, Henri Lefebvre and it further tackles the topic and its applications in Czech and also international context. Following this approach, it clarifies a wide range of related conceptions and phenomenons. It finds common points of reference in philosophy, semiotics, critical theory, urbanism, social geography, art and other fields, which is determined by its interdisciplinary nature. The practical part relates the previously mentioned theoretical foundations to applied, empirical research. It observes and reveals the rhythms of Prague area named Vltavská, it analyzes and interprets them and shows the rhythmanalysis as a legitimate analytical instrument with a potential value for urbanism.
