Neformální praxe a prostředí byrokracie: role habitu při formování rezistence
Informal practices and bureaucracy: the role of habitus in resistence

Summary/Abstract: This paper examines tactics of resistance among Czech welfare state bureaucrats. I argue that traditional perspectives on worker resistance underplay the role of the employees in the formation ofthe resistance. The workers choose forms of their resistance on the basis of their habitus and thecharacteristics of the organizational environment. This balanced approach inspired by the sociologyof Pierre Bourdieu helps to deepen the understanding of everyday employee resistance and workplace politics.
