The second chapter is devoted to the roles of chemistry in today's society. The third chapter is focused on the public view of chemistry or chemical products. In this chapter I am discussing the public's fear of chemistry, position of chemistry as a school subject, attempts to reduce the chemistry position in some industrial fields (replacing standard food with organic food and classical plastics with bioplastics) or who influences the opinions on chemistry. In the fourth chapter of theoretical part I deal with the attitudes and their evaluation. The practical part is based on a questionnaire survey realized using an electronic questionnaire. The basic information about the respondents and more detailed analysis of some of the respondents answears are presented in the evaluation of this questionnaire.

History of Kaznějov before 1918
Kodetová, Klára ; Charvátová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Foltýn, Dušan (referee)
Resume The presented bachelor thesis portrays the historical development of the village Kaznějov. It deals with its portrayal in the available historical charters and documents. The focus is laid especially on the oldest history of the settlement, when it functioned as a grange of the Cistercian monks from the nearby Plasy monastery, and on its further development throughout the Middle Ages and Early Modern Period. Although the paper strives to rely mostly on available historical documents, it at the same time also strives to portray the village on the background of important contemporary events, such as the Hussite Wars and the Thirty Years' War. In the younger periods, the thesis focuses on the portrayal of the village based on the materials from different land cadastres - the Cadastre of the empress Maria Theresa, the emperor Joseph II.'s Cadastre and the Stable Cadastre. Finally, the paper describes the changes that the village sustained as a result of the mining and chemical industries' development in the area during the 19th century. These changes significantly shaped the village's further growth and also its physical appearance as opposed to the former periods.
