About
Ph.D. student with perennial penitentiary praxis and some experience with educating the adults seeks a deeper understanding of social micro cosmos in a prison environment, wherein he operates as a specialist dealing with prisoners. His goal is an explanation of a social life of the inmates (institutions, habits, specifics of social structure) and creation of a solid theory about the contemporary inmates subculture in Czech male prisons. This project comes from his longtime fondness in penitentiary area and is being built on fundamentals of the research during his rigorous thesis (2015). In his future career he efforts to publish a book that introduces the topic of social life of inmates to wider range of academic society, because there is a serious deficiency of such literary production in Czech Republic.DRAHOŇOVSKÝ, Jan.

About I am PhD student at Charles University in Prague, currently working on my doctoral thesis focusing on “Construction of feminist consciousness as part of the collective identity of the social movement”.
Last year I successfully completed a master´s degree in sociology with Master’s thesis: The reflection of feminism in the Czech public discourse, which main objective was to answer the question of how women in Czech Republic construct their views on feminism. During my Master’s studies I spent semester abroad at the University of Tampere in Finland.
In the present, my primary research interests are in the field of gender studies and feminism. Specifically, I am interested in the topic of feminist consciousness and social movements. My current research projects include individual framing of gender issues.
Lately, my academic research has resulted in several conference papers. Most recently, I presented paper “The typology of women’s attitudes towards feminism and the concept of private feminism in Czech context” at ATGENDER Spring Conference in Vilnius, Lithuania in April 2017. The main objective of the paper was the presentation of the outcomes of qualitative research, which was conducted in 2016 at Charles University in Prague. |
