Práce líčí příběh Autonomního sociálního centra Klinika v Praze. V práci zkoumám gramatiky veřejného sporu o městský prostor. Práce začíná úvodem do hlavních teorií používaných při studiu kolektivního jednání v městském prostoru - teorie sociálních hnutí, teorie prefigurace a přímé akce a teorie městských hnutí, primárně v SVE. Místo těchto přístupů nabízím ontologicky, epistemologicky a metodologicky aparát pragmatické sociologie kritiky a zkoumám veřejné spory o zmíněný sociální centrum. Aktéry, kteří ve sporu o město participovali byli státní zaměstnanci, české autonomní hnutí a pražští komunální političky. Na analyzovaném případu můžeme zkoumat gramatiky, které tyto aktéři používají, když mluví o městě, a zároveň vnitřní rozpory samotných aktérů, taktiky nadvlády a odporu k ni. Abstract The thesis recounts the story of the Autonomous Social Center Klinika in Prague. As such, it presents an opportunity to explore the grammars of public dispute about urban space. The thesis starts with an introduction to the main theories used in studying contention-social movement studies, the theories of prefiguration and direct action, and urban movements studies. These three branches are alternated with the pragmatic sociology of critique as an ontologically, epistemologically, and methodologically novel...

Justifications and critique in the European Union: a study of legitimacy in practice Mgr. Ing. Olga Gheorghiev ABSTRACT Inspired by the pragmatic sociology of critique developed by Luc Boltanski and his collaborators, this thesis examines how legitimacy is produced in public debates at the EU level through the craft of justification and critique among competent actors. In doing so, this research takes aim at three specific episodes in the history of the European integration that share in common the qualities of uncertainty of outcome, controversy in public debate and the urgency to reach a form of consensus and thus to resolve the created uncertainty. The examined events are the following: the Eastern enlargement of the European Union, the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty, and the adoption of specific measures in reaction to the European sovereign debt crisis. The theoretical part of this thesis situates the potential of the sociology of critical capacities for the study of the EU among other theoretical traditions, pointing out directions in which this particular theoretical framework could cover some of the limitations of other approaches. This is followed by the empirical part, which is divided in three chapters for each of the examined historical episodes. While structured somewhat symmetrically, each...
