Non-extremist coordinated activism of young people on social networks (case study of Danuše Nerudová`s volunteers)
Sandtnerová, Michaela ; Šlerka, Josef (advisor) ; Sedláček, Jakub (referee)
This thesis focuses on the non-extremist coordinated activism of young people on social networks using the example of Danuše Nerudová's volunteers. In the first part, it defines online activism and its forms and hybrid activism as a widely used type of activism. It then describes young people and their relationship to activism and explains the focus of the work on this age group. Last but not least, it also looks at coordinated behaviour, both authentic and inauthentic. As part of the qualitative research, the thesis focuses on Danuše Nerudová's volunteers, with whom in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted to find out what activities the volunteers were doing, how they felt about it and whether they were coordinated voluntarily or vice versa. Data analysis revealed that volunteers performed all social media activities completely voluntarily and under their own name and social media profile. At the same time, the coordination by Danuše's team was carried out in a non-extremist manner. The work helped in the initial understanding of the phenomenon of non-extremist coordinated activism in the Czech Republic in the context of political campaigns and can serve as a basis for further research on this phenomenon.
