The Battle for the Church of St. Francis in a town in the Czech Republic between “Hipster-Culture” and “Tradition” - Discourses in Religiosity, Youth, and Intra-Parish Civic Engagement – A Case Study
The relationship between civic engagement and religiosity is an already relatively researched and described phenomenon. However, insufficient attention is paid to the phenomenon of civic engagement within the parish, and moreover in the context of various discourses of religiosity In the article, we present an answer to the question: How do various discourses and their dominant positions influence Intra-Parish Civic Engagement of Youths? To formu…
Privatisation of the privatized
Growing number of studies pointed to the importance of the topic of spirituality and religiosity among older people. However, these studies are conducted in countries with high religiosity. The Czech Republic is one of the most secular regions in the world. These facts led us to question the relationship between old age and spirituality in the environment of the Czech Republic. In thirteen semi-structured interviews with seniors from the Czech Re…
Governed by atmospheres
This article explores the operation of homeless encampments as a part of governance by highlighting the role of affective atmospheres. The COVID-19 pandemic and the imposition of lockdowns have seen the introduction of unprecedented measures into homelessness governance in Czech cities. Some have set up temporary homeless encampments as a response to the declaration of the state of emergency. Relying on interviews and observations, this article r…

Homelessness
The phenomenon of homelessness is affecting an ever larger number of municipalities in the Czech Republic, and it seems to be a structural problem that can hardly be solved by directive approaches and proclamatory and spectacular gestures during political campaigns. The text above informs about a publication that will be published at the beginning of 2021. This monograph combines two formats of approach to the research. Applied research predomina…
The prison chaplain as a part of penitentiary care? Transformation of the Czech prison system after the fall of communism
The prison system in the Czech Republic has been carrying out a reform process since the end of the communist regime, and has gone through more than 30 years transformation, based on an effort to become a modern European correctional system. Part of this change is the transformation of pastoral care, which is presented as one of the key pillars of penitentiary (and also post-penitentiary) care in the Czech Republic. This text is focused on the hi…
Proměny katolické religiozity tachovského okresu v uplynulých sto letech
In this study, we explored the transformations of religiosity within the town of Tachov region, targeting particularly the majority religious group, i.e. the Roman Catholics (who, despite the sharp decline demonstrated in the 2011 census, remain the most numerous confession in the region). We used both hard and soft data to demonstrate that this “strongly Catholic reality of the region”, which has shaped the religious discourse and served as a ma…
Ways of Life in the Late Modernity
The National Religious Environment and the Orthodoxy of Christian Beliefs
The authors analyse the relationship between primary religious socialisation and the preservation of religious orthodoxy expressed by attitudes and practices in adulthood. They aim to test the effect of socialisation and the effect of religious practices in adulthood on the orthodoxy of people's beliefs in three countries (Austria, the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic), which are similar in terms of their cultural context, but have differen…
Framing and Agenda-Setting
In this article the authors interconnect the framing and agenda-setting theories of mass-communication effects. They postulate that the framing process creates conditions for the agenda-setting process and argue that differently framed news have different effects in the agenda-setting process. They hypothesise that issue-specific frames, episodic frames, and value frames have a stronger agenda-setting effect than generic frames, thematic frames, …
