Fairytales about selfdetermination.
Sachrová, Tereza ; Babáková, Bernardeta (referee) ; Klímová, Barbora (advisor)
In my bachelor thesis I present a text named Tales from Beztrudy land in an author book. It’s 12 stories about Lutynka and Hynek living in an abandoned narrow gauge railway near a train station in a land called Beztrudy. They live with eighteen dogs, with a cat without one leg Prlenka, with half dog half fox Bařinka and one domesticated bird. Together with their friends, they face everyday problems (getting food, changing seasons, growing a group of dogs, bottling honey, going to the ball, etc.), as well as traumas, social abnormalities, problems with the dominance of the powerful or the absence of a stable background for life. The setting of the stories - Beztrudy is a paraphrase of the Beskydy Mountains, which are the main inspiration for the stories. The goal of the thesis was to create an ecofeminist text similar to fairy tale series, which would thematize non-hierarchical interpersonal relationships, the relationship with nature or coping with abandonment. In the text part of the thesis, I also deal with the role of dialect in society or when working with language. Furthermore, I thematize here the eternal struggle to preserve the integrity of the landscape and the role of this theme in fairy tale production.

Práce a osobní život digitálních nomádů
MORAVA, Jan
The bachelor thesis focuses on the phenomenon of digital nomadism. In the Czech environment, this is a relatively new trend of combining teleworking and traveling, together with a change in the content of the working day and the lifestyle as such. The aim of the work is, with the help of semi-structured interviews with digital nomads, to clarify the work regime, leisure time, travel and overall their experience with digital nomadism. The theoretical part covers the relationship between the transformation of society and nomadism, and then characterizes the transformational changes in terms of mobility, the transformation of the media landscape and the sphere of work. The practical part evaluates qualitative research with specific nomads who explain aspects of this lifestyle. The outputs of the work can be useful to better illustrate this flexible form of employment from the early 21st century.

The Theme of Escape, Nomadism and Teritorialization in the Work of Gilles Deleuze and Michel Maffesoli
Bílková, Barbora ; Charvát, Martin (advisor) ; Marcelli, Miroslav (referee)
The thesis deals with the study of issues of escape, nomadism and territorialisation with regard to postmodern society. These concepts are explored on the basis of works by two French postmodern authors: Giles Deleuze and Michel Maffesoli. However, the analysis of seemingly similar ways of telling about these topics is to prove their considerable difference with respect to their understanding of life, world and society. In the theoretical part, the research focuses on Deleuz's concepts of becoming, multiplicity and division of space into smooth and grooved and Maffesoli's concepts of postmodern society associated with neotribalism, its desire to wander and dynamic rooting. The analytical part of the thesis is based on these concepts to interpret the documentary cycle "Kmeny", which relates to the topic of urban subculture within the Czech Republic.

Internet as a Networked Bridge: Community Effects of the Internet in Postmodern Society
Šarochová, Jitka ; Fišerová, Michaela (advisor) ; Charvát, Martin (referee)
In my master thesis I deal the with specific creation of communities on the Internet. The aim of this essay is to contribute to the debate about the problematics of the Internet and its role in the postmodern society. The basic idea is that the physical and virtual world leads to formation of communities. I believe that association with communities can be considered as a natural human phenomenon. Internet is perceived as a space, which provides the opportunity for its users to organize themselves into virtual communities. The question is if the creation of virtual communities is the goal of postmodern society. On the one hand Internet can be seen as a space of strengthening personal individuality, because of freedom and authonomy it provides. But on the other hand communities could place demands on their members, thereby they represent certain limitation of thein member's individuality. In this thesis I verify the hypothesis that the Internet is a space that leads to formation of virtual communities at the expense of developing one's own individuality.
