Gellnerovo pojetí modernity
Gellner’s theory of modernity is a complex structure, it matured several decades and during this process he modified some of its elements. The following interpretation of his theory is based on the analysis of three pillars of his thought, first on his epistemological axioms, second on his concept of philosophy of human history and third on his conception of social theory. Gellner’s theory of knowledge is a cluster composed of classical empiricis…

Vnitřní periferie v České republice jako mechanismus sociální exkluze [Inner Peripheries of the Czech Republic as a Mechanism of Social Exclusion]
Peripheral regions are most often described in terms of economic geography. However, this study stresses more the sociological aspects of peripheries, studying not only the causes, but also the social effects of life in peripheral regions. The authors use the term 'inner peripheries' because most of the peripheral regions detected in their analyses are located in the inner parts of the country, mainly along the borders of the administrative regio…
Prague, Present Meets Past
In the first, socio-historical part of the study, the main periods of Prague's twentieth century history are described and explained, i.e. the period of Hapsburg monarchy, the period of the interwar Czechoslovak Republic, the Second World War years and Nazi occupation, the 41 years of the communist regime and the years after the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe. It was a century of unprecedented discontinuities and the city and its people …
How the Sociology of Housing Emerged
The article attempts to examine the main topics in the sociological study of housing from the end of the Second World War to the 1980s and distinguishes the following five: 1) housing systems and housing policy, 2) the relationship between social stratification and housing differentiation, 3) the relationship between the family and housing, 4) the relationship between housing and neighbourhoods, and 5) housing and architecture as components of cu…
The Transformation of Urban Sociology in the United States and Europe 1950-2000
The core of the paper is a comparative study of urban social theories in the United States, Western Europe, East Central Europe and the former Soviet Union during the period 1950-2000. The analyses of theoretical ideas are accompanied by references to empirical research that has had a substantial impact on urban social theory. At the same time, the paper compares the parallel developments of urban social theories in two parts of the world whose e…
Urban Development and Planning in Central Europe under Communist Regimes
The article is concerned with changes in urban systems and policies in East Central Europe under communist regimes. The changes of inter-and intraurban structures are compared with official urban policies declared by the governments. The urban systems that emerged in former socialist countries represent modifications of the general urbanisation model and they prove the fact that there exist multiple urbanisations. The differences between 'sociali…
Gellner's Philosophy of History - Interpretations and Problems
The major part of Ernest Gellner's work ranks among the few contemporary attempts at a global theory of the development of mankind, or, in his words, 'the structure of human history'. Gellner's theory is based on two main assumptions: first, the succession of three radically and generically different types of societies: 1) hunter-gatherer society; 2) agrarian society; 3) industrial society; and second, the assumption that in all these societies i…
Masaryk's Social Question, Socialism, and Contemporary Communitarianism
The article focuses on three issues: on Masaryk's interpretation of Marxism, on his own concept of a social state and on the question of to what extent Masaryk was a communitarian thinker. Masaryk's evolutionary psychologism, his stress on the active role of individuals in society and history, and his conviction that the crisis of modern man cannot be explained by methods of historical materialism, shielded him from the sociological simplificatio…
Potentials and Limits of Prague's Future in the Context of Long-Term Development
Evaluates the potential development of Prague, Czech Republic, through a comparison with four other Central European capitals. The primary anticipated changes in Central Europe's urban system are inferred from morphological analyses of recent social theorists & from comparative sociological analysis. The predictions include the growing role of capital cities as cultural, economic, & social centers for a unified Europe. Prague's future within this…
The Prague Roots of Ernest Gellner’s Thinking
The End of Czechoslovakia
Scholars and practitioners from both sides of the divide, Czech and Slovak, as well as international experts, take an in-depth look at the causes of Czechoslovakia's break-up, and explain why a seemingly successful country should disintegrate so quickly after the collapse of the communist regime. Besides exploring the political processes leading to the split, the authors analyse the underlying social, economic and cultural differences between the…
The Czech Housing System in the Middle of Transition
This paper critically evaluates the changes in the housing system and housing policies of the Czech Republic after 1989. The dismantling of the old socialist housing system, part of a more general transformation of Czech society, is shown to have been guided in the first instance by the belief that the introduction of a market model would create a balanced housing economy. The subsequent failure of this approach has led to the adoption of more pr…
The Meaning of "The Czech Question" Today
Assesses the historical & contemporary utility of Tomas G. Masaryk's interpretations of the Czech political & cultural crisis in the late nineteenth century. In Ceska otazka (The Czech Question [1895]), Masaryk argued that the social dualism of rationality & nonsecular humanism forms the very core of the modern European spirit; he also insisted on the inseparability & complementarity of different forms of rationality. Of lasting value is Masaryk'…
Europe Between Integration and Disintegration
Changing Urban Systems in Post-communist Societies in Central Europe
This paper is concerned with three levels of urban system changes; changes in the intra-urban structure of cities after the collapse of the communist regimes; changes in the national or state urban systems, i.e. inter-urban systems; and changes in the international system of capital cities in central Europe. The restoration of the land market and the removal of rent controls will lead to socially polarised neighbourhoods and new retail patterns. …
Czech and Slovak Society
THIS STUDY IS ONE OF COMPARATIVE STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS deliberately avoiding a sociological definition of the situation. It is assumed that two societies had existed in Czechoslovakia for some time and the difference between them, and possible analogies, are examined. There is also an assumption that the division of Czechoslovakia occurred especially because ‘Czechoslovak society’ as such had not yet been established; this was in spite of the fact …

Dieses Kapitel nimmt eine kritische Bestandsaufnahme vor, in der die Hauptprobleme der Sozialökologie seit ihren Anfängen skizziert werden. Zugleich wird eine konstruktive Neuformulierung ihrer theoretischen Postulate versucht. Hauptprobleme der Sozialökologie sind vor allem: die Ableitung von Zusammenhängen zwischen sozialräumlichen Strukturen und menschlichem Handeln; unscharfe Erklärung der Verursachungsmechanismen bestimmter sozialräumlicher …

Some Aspects of Social Organization of the Contemporary Czechoslovak Family
This study is an attempt to show, by re-analyzing data from a survey of married women, some aspects of the social organization of contemporary Czechoslovak families. Its further aim is to point out the variety of family types which can be detected in the Czechoslovak society. It should thus like to argue against assumptions that family patterns in socialist countries are uniform. The social structure of these societies and of their elements is mu…
Goal-setting in urban planning
The discussion on goals and goal-setting procedures in town planning which has recently been going on in the social and planning sciences1 is concerned - with a few exceptions - with the general methodological aspects of the problem. Undoubtedly this approach, stressing a typology of planning and the importance of planning environments and discussing the advantages of different goal-setting methods, has stimulated planning methodology and helped …
