Srncová, Michaela ; Šafr, Jiří (advisor) ; Tuček, Milan (referee)
Diplomová práce Proces vzniku hodnot: Mezigenerační přenos v rodině se zabývá procesem přenosu hodnotových orientací na individuální úrovni. Cílem práce je zjistit, zda a za jakých podmínek dochází k přenosu hodnot mezi generacemi v kontextu socio-profesní třídy. Práce se opírá o Kohnovu hypotézu, která tvrdí, že hodnoty jsou také kromě samotného procesu socializace formovány pracovní pozicí jednotlivců. Práce je rozdělena do dvou částí. Teoretická část pojednává o hodnotách, samotné socializaci jedince a shrnuje také poznatky Kohnovy práce, která se zabývá zejména diferenciací hodnot na základě profesních tříd. Analytická část se opírá o data z výzkumu "Distinkce a hodnoty 2008". Pozornost je zaměřena na zkoumání výchovných hodnot (které vlastnosti by měli být v dětech doma podporovány).

Changes of children's status in society: disappearance of childhood or childhood innocence?
Papoušková, Kristina ; Balon, Jan (advisor) ; Dvořák, Tomáš (referee)
My bachelor work is focused on the topic of childhood, namely its development and change in society. I introduce here the discipline of sociology of childhood - range of its interest, background of its progress and notable authors. I'd like to prove that childhood isn't only a period of time in life. I research infancy as social entity, in this context it is possible to compare childhood to social construct such as gender or social class. I define possible forms of infancy including for example the topic of disappearance of childhood. I try to emphasize that infancy wasn't always included in the same way in society. Last but not least I try to deconstruct the myth of innocent childhood, which is typical for Western culture. Apart from the theoretically oriented part the work also includes empiric section, which analyses infancy of three generations of women, who lived their childhood in different periods of 20th century in Czechoslovakia. In this analysis I concentrate on infancy in context of social changes and in relation to effect of educational institutions or child collective on children. I aim to describe disappearing infancy and the myth of child innocence.

The work deals with the consumerism of thirteen and fourteen years old youths. The authoress aims to answer the question of what extent the observed age category seems to be consumer in their attitudes and whether their consumerist attitudes have an universal character or whether it is structurally related to their economic and cultural capital.

As her main theoretical basis she states a concept of homologous classes of Pierre Bourdieu, from which she incorporates the concept of economic and cultural capital as the main differentiating principles affecting the lifestyle. In addition she presents the characteristics of today's school children in the context of Czech society and mentions the role of socialization in the transfer of capital and consumption patterns from parents to their child. Finally, the authoress describes her approach to the analysis of data on attitudes towards the consumption in defined age category. She introduces readers to research results, which show the prevailing consumerism of monitored group.
