The Prague Discourse Treebank 3.0 (PDiT 3.0) is a new version of annotation of discourse relations marked by primary and secondary discourse connectives in the data of the Prague Dependency Treebank. With respect to the previous versions, PDiT 3.0 brings a largely revised annotation of discourse relations and offers the data also in the Penn Discourse Treebank 3.0 (PDTB 3.0) format and sense taxonomy.
Fatherhood has experienced many transformations in the past years, as well as the institution of family and relationships between partners, parents and children. The social science discourse reflects those changes, but quite often through a prism of values and ideologies, and only rarely is gender neutral. This article presents today's discourses of fatherhood, their paradoxes and one way streets in which they sometimes end. Fathers today and especially those living in some of the ''new'' family arrangement (divorced fathers, step fathers, lone fathers...) find themselves in a situation where no clear cultural models or scenarios of behaviour exist. Public and scientific discourses of fatherhood are divided between the image of a ''new'' involved father on one side and of the ''feckless'' father on the other. Both images are often used and misused to political purposes, but don't really reflect the reality of contemporary fatherhood.
Předkládaná výzkumná studie se zabývá zmapováním diskurzů o schizofrenii v českém prostředí. V rámci výzkumu byly prováděny polostrukturované rozhovory o schizofrenii s laiky, s lidmi s diagnózou a s odborníky (N = 15). Přepsané rozhovory byly následně analyzovány jedním z přístupů diskurzivní analýzy – kritickou diskurzivní psychologií. Celkem bylo identifikováno 13 odlišných interpretačních repertoárů, které respondenti využívali pro konstruování schizofrenie a člověka s diagnózou. Také byly zmapovány pozice, které tyto repertoáry umožňují zaujmout, důsledky, jaké identifikované repertoáry přináší, a repertoáry byly zasazeny do globálních diskurzů. Respondenti zaujímali větší množství mnohdy protichůdných repertoárů. V diskusi byly následně konfrontovány výsledky s relevantními studiemi. Dále byly popsány limity předkládané studie a návrhy možných navazujících výzkumů a aplikace do praxe. and The presented research study deals with the mapping of discourses on schizophrenia in the Czech environment. The research conducted semi-structured interviews on schizophrenia with lay people, people with diagnosis and experts (N = 15). Those transcribed interviews were subsequently analyzed by one of the discoursive analysis approach – critical discursive psychology. Overall, 13 different interpretative repertoires used by respondents for the construction of schizophrenia and schizophrenic people were identified. Positions that could be hold thanks to these repertoires and consequences of these repertoires were also described. Respondents used a larger number of often conflicting repertoires. Results were confronted with relevant studies in discussion. Further, limits of this study were described as well as suggestions of possible follow-up research and practical application.

Tato studie je rozdělena do tří hlavních částí: První pojednává o postavení sociálních reprezentací v systému současné psychologie a možnostech jejich využití pro současnou vědu a výzkum. Druhá se snaží vysvětlit okolnosti jejich vzniku a popisuje filosofickosociologické kořeny této teorie. Třetí část tohoto článku zkoumá jejich formální strukturu. Teorie sociálních reprezentací nikdy nebyla statickým a hypotetickým konstruktem, ale vždy se snažila pružně přizpůsobit stále se měnícímu kontextu reality. Sociální reprezentace jsou myšlenkami v pohybu, jsou to dynamické a otevřené fenomény a jejich koncept je formován a transformován spolu s měnícím se kontextem. Teorie sociálních reprezentací pomohla transformovat sociální psychologii na postmoderní vědeckou disciplínu, která překračuje hranice mezi psychologií, sociologií, filosofií, lingvistikou, teorií systémů a kulturní antropologií. Sociální reprezentace jsou souborem organizovaných a strukturovaných poznatků na úrovni základního společenského systému. Činí pro nás realitu srozumitelnou, bezpečnou a dávají nám možnost snadněji se v ní orientovat a sdílet ji s ostatními. and This study is divided into three main parts: The first is about position of social representations in the system of present psychology and possibilities of their use for present science and research. The second is trying to explain background of their origin and describes philosophical-sociological roots of this theory. The third part of this paper explores their formal structure. Theory of social representation has never been statistic and hypothetical construct, but has ever been trying to adapt flexibly to always changing context of reality. Social representations are ideas in movement, they are dynamic and open phenomena and their concept is formed and transformed together with the changing context. Theory of social representations helped to transform social psychology into postmodern science, which exceeds borders between psychology, sociology, philosophy, linguistics, theory of systems and cultural anthropology. Social representations are collection of organized and structured knowledges at the level of basic social system. They make the reality clear and safe for us. They give us possibility to orientate in reality easier and to share it with others.
The principal questions of this case study concern the birth of a new political regime, the first years of the Austro-Hungarian Compromise: which legal, political and moral norms regulated the enrichment of politicians and where contemporary discourse posited the limits of corruption. The article answers these questions through the analysis of the cases of some Hungarian politicians. The author explores the varied sources available about the incriminating affairs: archival materials, personal documents,
and newspapers, together with a number of literary representations of the problem. The historical data serve to demonstrate that corruption is an elastic notion. Studying the discourse of corruption highlights that neither the seriousness of the deed nor the truth of the accusations was important, in fact political situation alone determined if the politicians would be blackened or not. The Compromise Era offers a number of examples of the establishment of this new form of political infighting and its first successful application. and Článek zahrnuje poznámkový aparát pod čarou
