The paper explores the close connection between social work and feminist movement and theory. He tradition and history of social work are incomplete without social workers - women activists. he aim of the paper is to examine the historical context of the professionalization of social work in close connection with the irst wave of feminism, and to interrogate positions which refuse feminist approaches in social work as marginal, ideological - not objective, or curious and even dangerous, improper. Women’s movement is one of the sources of development and professionalization of social work. Political and social activism of many outstanding women - “Mothers“ of social work - was an integral part of their professional career. his aspect of their lives is, however, all too often “forgotten“ in textbooks. he importance of pride, roots and the tradition is a fundamental aspect for every social work graduate and practitioner, especially as the status of social work in society has been falling., Monika Bosá., Poznámky, Obsahuje bibliografii, and Abstrakt a klíčová slova anglicky
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are steroid hormones produced by the adrenal cortex in reaction to stress stimuli. GCs production is not stable over a 24-hour period; the plasma concentration peaks in the morning (approximately upon awakening) and then the plasma levels decrease, reaching the nadir in the evening. In our experiments, the levels of cortisol, cortisone, DHEA and DHEAS were tested in young female pigs (n=23) during heart catheterization at two different day times (in the morning and in the afternoon). The non-parametric Mann-Whitney test for statistical analysis was used. We found only minimal statistical differences in studied markers between the morning and afternoon group (p>0.05). The absence of circadian variation in GCs levels could originate either at an early age of our experimental pigs, or in stressful conditions on the experiment day, or most likely the day before (e.g. social isolation, fasting, transport, and catheterization), respectively. We can conclude there is no difference in the stress load between morning and afternoon experiments, and therefore we can assume the stress load is not a limiting factor for the timing when catheterization should be preferably performed., H.

Ve všech vyspělých ekonomikách jsou mezi požadovanými odborníky jednou z nejvyhledávanějších skupin lékaři; jejich celoevropská potřeba vyplývá z negativního demografického vývoje a stárnutí populace v Evropě. Čeští lékaři jsou v zahraničí žádáni pro vysokou kvalifikaci a odbornou erudovanost. Příspěvek se zabývá podmíněností práce a pobytu českých lékařů v zahraničí. Opírá se o výsledky sondážního dotazníkového šetření mezi lékaři, studenty vyšších ročníků medicíny a dále o výsledky řízených kvalitativních rozhovorů s vybranými experty z resortu zdravotnictví. Analyzována je struktura migračních motivů pro práci v zahraničí vč. porovnání výdělkových úrovní českých lékařů a lékařů ve vybraných zemích EU, dále pravděpodobná míra migračního potenciálu mezi lékaři a studenty medicíny, plánovaná délka zahraničního pobytu, cílová migrační teritoria a další fenomény., In all developed economies doctors form one of the most sought after professional groups; the exceptional need for doctors throughout Europe is the result of both negative demographic development and the general ageing of the European population. Czech doctors especially are in demand abroad as a result of their high level of qualifications and expertise. This article studies both the working and living conditions of Czech doctors residing abroad. It is based on the results of a pilot questionnaire survey of doctors and medical students in their final years of study as well as on the results of qualitative interviews carried out with selected health sector experts. The article presents an analysis of the structure of the motives for work migration, including a comparison of the earning levels of Czech doctors and foreign doctors in selected countries of the EU,the potential rate of doctor and medical student migration, planned duration of residence abroad, destination migration countries and other relevant factors. The article forms one of the outcomes of the “Risk of the possible outflow of qualified experts from the CR abroad” grant project which was supported financially by the Czech Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs., Jana Vavrečková, and Lit.: 20
This study made it possible to show, using the example of Bohemia, that agrarian areas which have thus far been viewed as the “traditional” regions of emigration, also feature significant numbers of immigrants. Migration from agrarian regions not only moved in the direction of towns and urban centres. Commonly it was the case that each region was connected with other regions along multidirectional channels of exchange. In addition, in the rural environment there is clear evidence of the existence of an important system of seasonal migration. Intensive research of migration flows in the Central European rural environment, a task that still awaits international historiography, will certainly bring to light many more, thus far unknown, migration systems.
