A Perpetual Glass Ceiling? The Position of Women in the ICT Sector
Sobina, Anastasiia ; Žouželková Bartošová, Marie (referee) ; Ellederová, Eva (advisor)
Cílem této bakalářské práce je prozkoumat postavení žen v sektoru informačních a komunikačních technologií (dále jen ICT). Práce analyzuje nízké zastoupení žen v profesích ICT a v ICT firmách. Dále se zabývá hypotézou o ženách čelících takzvanému „skleněnému stropu“, který brání ženám a menšinám získat pozice na vyšší úrovni založené na stereotypech a předsudcích. Teoretická část této práce se skládá z následujících témat: role žen v historickém vývoji počítačů, seznam některých nejvýznamnějších žen v oboru informatiky, důvody pro nedostatečné zastoupení specialistů ženského pohlaví v ICT, koncepce „skleněného stropu“ a popisu současné situace v Evropě, konkrétně v České republice, kde tato data doplňují statistické informace organizace Czechitas. Informace byly shromážděny studiem literatury a analýzou studií souvisejících s daným tématem. V empirické části této práce byl proveden kvalitativní a kvantitativní výzkum. Data byla shromážděna prostřednictvím dotazníkového šetření a rozhovorů.
The Identity Construction and Self-Perception of Queer Sinti and Roma
Tremel, Alicia Sarah Beate ; Uherek, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Wirthová, Jitka (referee)
This thesis examines the identity construction and self-perception of queer Sinti and Roma in Central Europe. Sinti and Roma are at the fringe of society and are subjected to discrimination and antiziganist stigmatisation. As a result, identity construction involves greater effort and leads to the creation of a collective identity that provides Sinti and Roma with a sense of belonging. Queer Sinti and Roma are exposed to intersectional discrimination on the axes of racism and homophobia and occupy a special position within identity formation. Incorporating data from three narrative interviews, testimonies and selected chapters from an autobiographical book, this study demonstrates that intersectional discrimination highly influences identity formation within queer Sinti and Roma. It was shown that identity construction was shaped by concepts like Masking Identity and the Perception of Othering that can be overcome by finding spaces of Belonging and social networks that display Allyship. The establishment of safe spaces for queer Sinti and Roma are crucial for the creation of spaces of Belonging and the manifestation of a mutual group identity. Keywords: Identity, Sinti, Roma, Nationalism, Ethnicity, LGBTIQ, Gender Studies, Intersectionality, Belonging and Othering, Allyship.
Sexual harassment in the media sector from the female journalists' perspective
Šubrtová, Zuzana ; Vochocová, Lenka (advisor) ; Reifová, Irena (referee)
This master thesis focuses on the issue of sexual harassment in the media sector from the female journalists' perspective. Our goal was to investigate the emotional experience of journalists who were victims of sexual harassment. The methodology of research was thematic analysis. We analysed testimonies from eight respondents who currently work or worked in journalism. Few interesting concepts arise from the analysis, such as role of the power asymmetry or sexual objectification of female journalists. In conclusion, we defined specific aspects of sexual harassment in described sector and impact on the journalists' work reality.
Misgendering from the perspective of philosophy of language
Fikejzová, Michaela ; Gvoždiak, Vít (advisor) ; Fulka, Josef (referee)
Misgendering as a phenomenon is currently analyzed mainly from the perspective of gender studies, where it is generally considered a hostile and morally contestable practice. The aim of the presented work is the analysis of misgendering from a completely different position - misgendering as an issue of reference. This type of analysis brings novel insights both to the debates in the field of gender studies and to the debates concerning reference as such. As an interpretative framework I am using Récanati's account on mental files; I am using this conceptual base for evaluating whether given reference and/or coreference may be considered (un)successful. In this framework I examine several model situations, where misgendering takes place, and based on this inquiry I propose a two-level typology of the misgendering phenomenon. The first level takes place only at the perceptual level, where the speaker forms singular thoughts about an object she's perceiving. At the second level, which includes interpersonal reference, I distinguish between three types of misgendering - unintentional, considerate intentional, and hostile intentional misgendering. In the text I oppose the conception of misgendering as only a hostile practice, as it is inevitable or even desirable in certain situations from a reference...
Game of women. Transformation of main women figures and their social roles in popular TV series Game of Thrones. Qualitative analysis of seasons 1 to 7.
Hloucalova Maslova, Ksenia ; Vochocová, Lenka (advisor) ; Fousek Krobová, Tereza (referee)
The thesis represents image of female characters and their development in the popular TV series Game of Thrones. Based on qualitative analysis in this thesis it is being examined how visual image, personal characteristics and interaction within society are presented and developed on example of several female characters in these TV series. Seven women were observed in all already aired episodes of seasons 1 to 7. As a strategy of qualitative analysis grounded theory method was chosen, which helped to produce generalized categories and sub-categories of phenomena which characters have in common. In further chapters of this thesis interpretation of categories could be found with illustrations from analyzed episodes. Other important part of this thesis is the chapter, in which trends in characters' transformation and development in frames of mentioned categories are being identified.
