Formation of new identity and symbols of the Czech society in 1989-1993 (Analysis in terms of the concept of civil religion)
Novotný, Josef ; Halík, Tomáš (advisor) ; Lupták Burzová, Petra (referee)
The thesis tries to prove applicability of the concept "civil religion" to the Czech society. After presentation of the concept of civil religion originating from R. Bellah, civil society and legitimization (grounded in the ideas of J. Přibáň) the addresses of president V. Havel and the articles from the selected newspapers of that period are analysed. In 1989-1993 as the transformative and crisis period one can observe the debate about the necessity of creating a civil society, finding a way of legitimizing the new condition and creating a new collective identity. Focusing on the individual and the citizenship following from the analysed articles constitutes the societal fundaments; and in these fundaments, thanks to "civil religion", there are recognized the transcendent component and the universality that both convey unifying potential and can be presented in a particular form through myths.

Public attitude to abused women as victims of home violence in the South Bohemian Region
BEDLÁNOVÁ, Marta
A goal of the research part of my bachelor thesis was to find out what is an awareness of lay and professional public of women as victims of the domestic violence in the South Bohemian Region. Because I live in the South Bohemian Region, I focused the research just on this locality. I was especially interested in the fact, if people living in the South Bohemian Region are influenced by certain prejudices and stereotypes and whether they are sufficiently informed about the problem of the domestic violence. For the reason of a big number of respondents I chose an empirical method of the investigation {--} a quantitative research. To get necessary data I used a questionnaire method or the standardized set of question with an anonymous course. From summarized results of the research I concluded, that neither lay public nor professional public living in the South Bohemian Region, do not think of abused women as victims of the domestic violence with prejudices and stereotypes. However, the fact that people living in the South Bohemian Region do not think of abused women as the victims of the domestic violence with prejudices and stereotypes, does not mean that there are no myths, prejudices and stereotypes at the South Bohemian lay as well as professional public. For example I have registered a still prevalent myth at the lay public: ``women provoke men to use the violence{\crq}q. I noted an existence of the prejudice at the professional public: {\clq}qattractive and self-confident women do not become victims of the domestic violence{\crq}q. The other result of my bachelor thesis was to ascertain that, in contrast to sufficient information at the professional public, the lay public have not still enough information about the problem of the domestic violence. Currently I can see the lack of information mainly on the phenomenon at the lay public as the fundamental problem of the domestic violence. I think that it would be very useful, efficient, but also interesting to focus an attention on the way how to achieve to greatest possible awareness of the Czech public.

Creativity in the Students at the University of Economics
Jandáková, Jana ; Franková, Emilie (advisor) ; Lukeš, Martin (referee)
The crucial area of this Bachelor's thesis is the human characteristic known as creativity. The theoretical section first addresses the definition of the concept of creativity and defines the crite-ria that serve to assess creativity levels. It then addresses factors influencing creativity, which from a biopsychosocial perspective can be divided into biological, psychological and social fac-tors. The thesis primarily deals with the latter two groups of factors. The section on psychological factors dissects the basic features contributing to a creative personality; the section on social factors deals with the influence of family, school, social reward and time of life. The subchapter on obstacles to creativity (blocks) includes myths about creativity, which can be considered one of the greatest blocks to creativity, as well as the causes of such barriers. The end of the theoreti-cal section deals with the facilitation of creativity. The goal of the practical section is to assess the level of creativity in students at the University of Economics. On the basis of the data ac-quired through the questionnaire, which takes into account the findings acquired from the litera-ture studied for the theoretical section, the thesis then makes a comparison of the creativity of students, individual departments and ultimately an assessment of the students of the University of Economics as a whole. The conclusion suggests recommendations for students.
