How social work has affected personal lives of social workers
KUKLOVÁ, Barbora
In this thesis characteristics of a social work, social worker, and low-threshold clubs are described. I focus on general incentives in the field of social work, which can participate in the influence on social work on the personal life. Those incentives are the role of the social worker, working conditions, important documents in the field of social work, supervision, the boundary between the social worker and the client, selfcare and other factors. In the main part of the thesis, I deal with three main psychological aspects such as personality, values and attitudes which can also contribute to the overlap of social work into personal life. At the end of the thesis, I describe positive psychology and the connection of positive psychology with social work. The last subchapter consists of analyzes of respondents' probes documented in the literature. The aim of the thesis is to find out how social work affects the personal life of social workers. I intentionally focus on selected general incentives and psychological aspects which can prevent a large overlap of social work in personal lives of workers. I conducted a research probe with five respondents from low-threshold clubs for the theoretical part of the thesis. I used the method of semi-structured interview to obtain the necessary data. I chose deliberately selected questions which led to the goal.

Homola, Matouš ; Marcelli, Miroslav (advisor) ; Charvát, Martin (referee)
This thesis is focused on ethics and subject in postmodernism and poststructuralism. The thesis contains methods of analysis, interpretation and comparison. These methods are primarily focused on French authors of the second half of the 20th century. In the text, there are answered questions like: "How society, knowledge and thiking of certain period affected the freedom of human being? What mechanisms exist in the language function structures that affect human way of thinking? What are the possibilities for individuals, to emancipate against the influence of powerfull government institutions and their strategies?" The aim of the thesis is to make an ethics rules that will be taken like an alternative to the codified normative morality. It shows the differences between modern universalism and posmodern pluralism. The dualism is interpreted primarily in the way of thinking of J.-F. Lyotard. There is also interpretation of dualism throught Deleuze and Guattari philosophy that is formulated due to theory of arborescent and rhizomatic structures. Most of the thesis is based on Michel Foucault's phylosophy of normalization and disciplining of a subject and authoritatively established ethics. The main topic of this thesis is Foucault's ethics based on the relationship of self to itselfs. This self-reflexive...

Contemporary Diet Culture in the light of Michel Foucault's Analyses
Muratova, Polina ; Váša, Ondřej (advisor) ; Švantner, Martin (referee)
(in English) Nowadays various formerly silenced topics have appeared under the spotlight of public's attention: specifically, mental health awareness has put forward body image concerns as being an incentive for most lethal forms of mental distress such as eating disorders. Despite body image issues are the subject of research for various academic fields, mainly psychology, this thesis attempts to study body image from a different point of view. That is in relation to contemporary diet culture; the thesis focuses on the application of Michel Foucault's theoretical concepts of disciplinary power and "care of the self" practice on the contemporary diet culture. Hence, discovery and review of diet culture controlling mechanisms that might be later internalized by individuals will be in the scope of this work, alongside with the study of diet culture discourse reinforced by influential YouTube content creators. Mainly, the thesis is focused on how dietary practices refer to disciplinary practices, conceptualized by Foucault, while, simultaneously, act as enabling for the subject, mimicking Foucauldian "care of the self" practices. Key words: Michel Foucault, diet, diet culture, care of the self, eating disorder, self- transformation.
