The study focuses on the preparations, organization and the realization of the general census of the year 1857. Its goal is to present the way of ascertaining the data and the characteristics pre-defined in census sheets. The attention will be rendered also to other documents connected to the census, the specific processing and presentation of data for every settlement unit and the possibilities of their further use in the study of culture and lifestyle. By way of illustration the results of the census will be documented on the example of the city Trnava. and Miriam Mikušová.
Despite the fact that the problem of sexual harassment at universities has been broadly explored in western and mainly American sociology since the mid-1970s, the first sociological survey to focus on this topic in the Czech Republic was conducted in late 2008 and early 2009. This quantitative survey covered 700 students and was carried out at a faculty of a university in Prague. The paper presents the main findings from this survey, such as the student’s experiences with sexual harassment from their teachers and their attitudes towards sexual harassment. The author found that the prevalence of sexual harassment in the particular faculty was relatively high and that students are extremely tolerant of ‘soft’ forms of harassment, especially gender harassment., Marta Vohlídalová., 3 grafy, 1 tab., and Obsahuje bibliografii
The problem of sexual harassment at universities has been explored in western and mainly American sociology since the mid-1970s. Since then, anti-harassment policies and procedures (including follow-up victim care) have been introduced at most Anglo-Saxon universities designing how to deal with ‘harassers’ and ‘victims’. In the Czech Republic, empirical research on this issue and on university anti-harassment policies is still lacking. The aim of this article is to introduce the methods and procedures employed at Anglo-American universities in an effort to tackle sexual harassment. The experiences of these academic institutions represent an indispensable source of information and inspiration for the Czech higher education environment., Kateřina Šaldová, Barbora Tupá, Marta Vohlídalová., Obsahuje bibliografii, and Anglické resumé
