Music Culture of Contemporary Young People in the Czech Republic

Author(s): Renata Horáková / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The paper discusses music culture of Czech pupils and students regarding the teaching of music education, and presents some findings published in The Annual Report of the Czech School Inspectorate. Pupils learning music at elementary art and music schools end their studies after completing the first cycle and do not continue developing their skills further although this moment tends to have the greatest impact on the future direction of an individual’s development and his/her skills. Partial results from an empirical research published by a team of the Department of Music, Faculty of Education, Brno is compared with data that is continuously collected by the Czech School Inspectorate by carrying out their inspectorial duties in primary schools and elementary art and music schools to find an answer to why elementary art pupils finish their studies prematurely and why an “active producer” of music becomes a “passive listener” only. The paper also discusses the “musicality” of the Czech nation, especially young people. An insight into the folklore and traditions is provided with an emphasis on folklore elements of some regions, respectively in South Moravia.

Manifestations Of Transfer In The Latest Post-Yugoslav Playwriting And Theatre: Migration, Cultural Mobility And Transculturality

Author(s): Gabriela Abrasowicz / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The post-Yugoslav cultural scene is especially complex and dynamic. Playwriting and theatre in this region are important forms of artistic expression, reflections of social problems, instruments of memory, and the reminders of accountability. Transfer is becoming more evident in production, promotion, (re)formation and support regarding the development of post-Yugoslav theatre. This particular field of artistic work is also characterised by thematization of migration, cultural mobility, transcultural potential, and the power to shape reality, and new levels of dialog.The basic aim of this paper is to describe the specific character of dramatic works and theatrical productions about migration initiated at the end of the twentieth century and beginning of the twenty-first in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia. Interpretation will focus on the most representative examples. The analysis requires an interdisciplinary approach and a reference to the concept of cultural mobility (S. Greenblatt) and transculturality (W. Welsch).

Бурдийо и "етносоциологическата лаборатория" на Беарн и Кабилия

Author(s): Stoika Penkova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The article focuses on the meaning of the early texts of Pierre Bourdieu written between 1959 and 1962 and problematizing the destruction of the world of Algerian and Bearnese peasantry. The thesis states that they are a discursive response to two life experience that were important to the establishment of the great French sociologist’s intellectual path – i.e. the experience of his native Bearn and of post-colonial Algeria and Kabylia – and, as such, are crucial for the formation of Bourdieu’s intellectual dispositions. It is in the desire to understand the dramatic social forces that involve and constrain both him and the agents who occupy positions in his own temporal zone, that Bourdieu creates his distinctive approach in the social scientific field. One cannot conceptualize the specificity and originality of this approach, leading to the generation of a new and specific attitude towards the world, without making explicit the essential characteristics of the two primary life experiences of Bearn and Algeria in their quality of forming the basis of the future Bourdieusian epistemological position. Therefore, we cannot overlook their deep socioanalytic dimension and their importance to a historical sociology of discursive practices, whenever we as researchers try to answer the question of how the new and distinctive way of making social science has come to be: the way which – as a form of specific discourse – guarantees to Bourdieu the occupation of a distinctive position in the field of social scientific discursive production and simultaneously facilitates his establishment as one of the most important sociologists who appeared in France after the WWII.

Що е култура и как международният бизнес използва това понятие? Промяна на парадигмата: от културата-като-код към културата-в-контекст

Author(s): Antoaneta Daneshka / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The importance of considering the cultural background has been established in the international business theory and practice for a long time. In spite of the intensive globalization processes and their impact on the domestic business environment, including the trend toward global values convergence, the arguments in favour of cultural divergence could hardly be contended. The national culture is a significant factor of the international business environment. The paper outlines current debates about the culture factor, identifying key categories and issues in cross-cultural communication and their contribution to the exciting "diversity" that exists within international business.

Междукултурно общуване в Интернет: как факторът национална култура взаимодейства с инструментите за общуване в Интернет в контекста на международния бизнес

Author(s): Antoaneta Daneshka / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

Internet communication is an indispensable part of the contemporary international business practice. Internet provides a variety of communication tools such as email, file transfer, mailing lists, bulletin boards, chat systems, text or audio and video conferences, group calendars, workflow systems, collaborative writing systems, decision support systems, etc. The technology contains an important cultural component which is even more salient in cross-cultural communication, that is when the interlocutors are representatives of different national cultures. When selecting Internet communication tools, international business practitioners should consider the barriers in cross-cultural communication. Cross-cultural differences in Internet communication can be satisfactorily predicted on the basis of the national culture dimensions, as elaborated in cross-cultural literature. The paper sorts out contemporary theories about Internet communication and applies them in the analysis of the national culture impact on the structure and dynamics of the communication, taking place in the virtual space.

CULTURE 65+

Author(s): Damir Šebo,Blanka Gigić Karl,Ana Popović / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Older people are often insufficiently involved in the community’s life and participate to a limited extent in cultural activities for various reasons. These reasons may be geographical isolation, unfavorable financial opportunities, disability, etc. Lack of awareness of the need to involve generation 65+ in cultural education further adversely affects the availability of cultural content intended for them. Increased access to such content contributes to their quality of life, activation, and greater inclusion in society. Social inclusion is an essential element of quality of life and dignified aging. It permeates different segments of life and includes different dimensions and layers. One of its main characteristics is that it is changing. Older age brings with it the problem of adapting to everyday life. The involvement of the elderly population in cultural content is significant, both for the mentioned population and for the local community. This chapter will present the results of a survey conducted among the elderly population of Osijek - Baranja County on their involvement in cultural content and culture perception.

Perspectives and Reality of Young People in Slovakia in the Dimensions of Selected Subsystems of Social Policy

Author(s): Michal Imrovič,Oľga Bočáková,Jana Levická / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Young people are often exposed to various life situations that gradually come during their lives. The quality of life of young people in Slovakia is conditioned by several areas of social policy therefore, these issues are very important for research. The aim of the paper is to point out the analysis of selected factors (areas) that affect the life situations of young people in Slovakia. We pay attention to the areas of support and protection of the establishment of young families and preparation for parenthood, support of employment of young people and support of housing policy of young people. In this paper we work with the analysis of secondary data, which relate to selected monitored areas focused on young people in Slovakia. The data we use in the article are of a quantitative character. We will use the method of analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction to achieve the set goals. Another key method that we use in the paper is descriptive statistics (Rimarčík, 2007; Chajdiak, 2010; Marek, 2015). In Slovakia, the issue of young people often appears only as a political issue. In scientific discourses, the issue of young people is addressed in isolation, as evidenced by several contributions from the authors. The authors of this paper present the problems of selected factors (areas) influencing the perspectives and reality of young people in Slovakia in an integrated manner.

"Войната на световете" - културен скрипт или предстояща криза?

Author(s): Dimitar Panchev / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The article aims to provide a few examples from the fictional literature, film industry and computer games, all of which directly address the problem of collision between worlds that are incommeasurable. The main suggestion is that the conflict between them can be resolved only through the complete destruction of one of those worlds. This will be the starting point for the analysis of the so-called „clash of civilizations” theme, which was documented during the media monitoring carried out in October 2015. The main argument of the article is that the construction of a generalized negative image of the Other and its systematic exclusion from access to the order of discourse in its essence can become a „self-fulfilling prophecy” (borrowing the term from Robert C. Merton), i.e. this Other becomes the bearer of a crisis which, prior to that, has been ascribed as essential to him. In this way the marginalized elements of society do not have any alternative exit but to be who they are, in line with their ascribed negative identity.

ULOGA TREĆEG ZASJEDANJA ZAVNOBIH-A U RAZVOJU KULTURNE POLITIKE BOSNE I HERCEGOVINE

Author(s): Sarina Bakić / Language(s): Bosnian,Croatian,Serbian Publication Year: 0

Regardless of how we perceive and understand culture, as a system of symbolic meanings, power relations, relations among various concepts, as system of values and validations, culture always represents a tool for articulation of relations among individuals and social groups. In this context, cultural politic is shaped upon the borderline between politics and culture and their mutual influence on all aspects of social life. According to Doknić, state through its ideological and political apparatuses as politically and educationally affirmative content interiorize it in living and working environment and entirely decide about each percent on financial support for culture (Doknić, 2013: 329). In this way, as it is the case with cultural politics in this specific historical period, culture becomes unavoidable factor of entire society’s transformation, planned within the cultural politics system aimed to direct, improve and coordinate limitless cultural space (ibid). Cultural politics as intentional and planned state intervention in the cultural domain, become enormously important part of entire development and positioning of one country. That is why we can claim with certainty that the role of the third assembly of ZAVNOBiH (National Anti-Fascist Council of the People’s Liberation of Bosnia and Herzegovina) is very noteworthy concerning development of cultural politics in Bosnia and Herzegovina. These are ‘pioneers’ steps’ in creating the flow of cultural life in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s society in this particular historical context. This is specifically related to establishment of cultural institutions, which exist today as well and whose universal and humanistic values and aims remain unchangeable. These institutions still nurture art and cultural literacy and reading in this very turbulent and challengeable times we are living in.

Картография на капани и пътеки в културното предприемачество

Author(s): Zornitza Draganova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

Cultural entrepreneurship is a topic that is evoking more and more interdisciplinary and polyparadigmatic efforts. The introduction and spread of the concept of “creative industries”, the awareness of the need to update both policies and management in the sphere of culture, the increasingly clearly visible need to preserve and socialize movable and immovable cultural heritage through a complex of traditional and modern methods: all these are factors that provoke more research and analysis of problems from the sphere of culture and arts.

Castelul

Author(s): Mircea Mihăies / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

E vremea lecturilor ideologice. Naivitatea fin-de-siècle s-a topit în „citiri” direcționate politic ale realității. Veacul trecut, veac al ideologiilor, n-a împins atât de departe implicarea încât să șteargă fragila graniță dintre politician și scriitor. Chiar și în ipostaza de profesioniști ai revoluției, scriitorii secolului al nouăsprezecelea n-au renunțat la privilegiul meseriei: „răsturnători ai vechii ordini” deveniseră din întâmplare, scriitori erau prin vocație. Tribuna încă nu confiscase cu totul locul penei.

Textul care urmează reprezintă traducerea stenogramei unei mese rotunde la care au participat cîțiva scriitori invitați de către Fundația Wheatland din New York la Conferința despre Literatură, pentru a pune în discuție conceptul de Europa Centrală. întrunirea a avut loc în iunie 1989, puțin înaintea dramaticelor evenimente ce au schimbat situația politică a întregului continent, nu numai a Europei Centrale, în ciuda schimbărilor care au avut loc între timp, discuția nu și-a pierdut relevanța. Ideea de Europa Centrală ca model cultural este și va continua să fie o problemă controversată, așa cum ne dovedește și această stenogramă a discuțiilor la care ne referim. Au luat parte: Czeslaw Milosz, laureat al premiului Nobel; dinamicul Adam Michnik, istoric și lider al „Solidarității” poloneze; trei dintre scriitorii de frunte al Ungariei, György Konrâd, Péter Eszterhâzy și Miklös Mészôly; poetul austriac H.C. Artmann; poetul estonian Paul -Eerik Rummo ; scriitorul italian Claudio Magris, expert în problemele Europei Centrale ; Edward Limonov, romancier rus ; iugoslavul Danilo Kis, unul dintre cei mai talentați scriitori ai zilelor noastre, ce avea să moară la numai cîteva luni de la întrunirea de la Budapesta. Discuțiile au fost conduse de către Michael Scammel, profesor de literatura rusă și renumit biograf al lui Soljenițîn.

Percepcije i iskustva univerzitetskih nastavnika o rodno zasnovanom nasilju i diskriminaciji: refleksije tradicionalnih i kulturnih činilaca

Author(s): Alija Selimović,Ljubica Tomić Selimović / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Rodno zasnovano nasilje još uvijek je jedna od najraširenijih formi kršenja ljudskih prava u svijetu (Ennaji i Sadiqi, 2011), a različite forme rodno zasnovanog nasilja javljaju se u svim kulturama i gotovo svakom kontekstu. Rodno zasnovano nasilje, kao fenomen, ne tiče se samo nasilja i agresije, nego se dotiče i pitanja priznavanja prava, ostvarivanja pristupa mobilnosti i uključenosti (Davids, 2020). Pored toga, problem rodno zasnovanog nasilja usko je vezan uz pitanje učvršćivanja i održavanja kulturnih normi koje imaju ulogu “mjerila ili referentne tačke“ (Shaheed, 2012) u legitimizaciji prevlasti privilegiranih (muškaraca) tj. zadržavanju odnosa nejednakosti te nastojanju da se zaobiđu deklarirane formalnopravne konvencije kako bi se očuvala postojeća nejednakost kroz mehanizme dominacije i supresije.

Traumatično odrastanje kćeri u patrijarhalnoj kulturi

Author(s): Nermina Kravić / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

In cultures that suffer from a lack of dialogue and addressing the roots of certain conflicts, traumatic experiences are commonly multiplied and transmitted to the next generation. The traumatic experiences permanently mark a powerless entity and all his/her subsequent experiences imbued with the fear of the abuse or abused subject is transformed into a new abuser. Learned behavior patterns are easily transferred to the next generation daughters or sons, instead of analysis and dealing with problematic aspects of upbringing. Most effects of these abusive patterns are forming a part of identity of people exposed to violence. The theoretical work draws on feminist theory which examines the role of mothers in different historical periods, as well as their role in the childhood of every person. The aim of this paper is to point out the relationship between mothers and daughters, and their invisibility in patriarchal culture. Fathers and mothers usually punished their children by silence, causing a feeling of guilt, which represents some of mainly forms of daughters' identity. Selected texts for analysis are those that deal with family relationships in South Slavic communities.

Rodne norme i poremećaji ishrane: feministički uvid u psihopatologije u vezi sa izgledom ženskog tijela

Author(s): Maida Husičić,Jasmina Husanović Pehar / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

U ovom radu bavimo se rasprostranjenošću poremećaja u ishrani, posebno među ženama, i njihovim odnosom prema društveno konstruiranim rodnim ulogama. Koristimo feminističku perspektivu kako bismo ispitali socio-kulturne faktore koji doprinose poremećajima u ishrani, uključujući i pritisak da se prilagodi idealiziranim tipovima tijela, i ulogu medija u oblikovanju ovih ideala. Fokusiramo se i na sociokulturni kontekst poremećaja u ishrani, raspravljajući o povećanoj prevalenci ovih poremećaja, porastu popularnosti estetske hirurgije, te kulturnom pritisku da se prilagodi idealima mršavog tijela. Istražuje se i povijest, a i uzrok anoreksije nervoze i bulimije, te njihova povezanost s društvenim utjecajima i kulturnim idealima koji su uvijek orođenog karaktera. Cilj ovog rada jeste dati pregled kritičkih teorijskih stavova u polju rodnih studija o učestalim poremećajima ishrane i njihovom odnosu sa društveno postavljenim pravilima i rodnim normama, te pružiti uvide u nekoliko važnih feminističkih perspektiva oko pojave, uzroka i posljedica poremećaja ishrane. Također, cilj rada jeste pojasniti utjecaj okolnih čimbenika u nastanku poremećaja ishrane među ženskom populacijom, te tako sagledati poremećaje ishrane kroz sociološku i kulturološku prizmu konstrukcije roda.

Kulturní rozměr české zahraniční politiky

Author(s): Jana Peterková / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

Kulturní rozměr české zahraniční politiky patřil i v roce 2008 k důležitým aspektům jejího dalšího vývoje. Dlouhodobě patří kultura k sice významným složkám v obrazu ČZP, nicméně nikoli ke složkám prioritním. V této souvislosti je v konceptuální rovině nutné zdůraznit příbuznost, či lépe vazbu především kulturní diplomacie, v podobě kulturních akcí a výměn, univerzitní spolupráce a výuky jazyka na veřejnou diplomacii jakožto jednu ze současných priorit ČZP. Veřejnou diplomacii lze definovat jako činnost zaměřenou na vytváření a ovlivňování pozitivních představ o daném státu, o hodnotách a postojích, které reprezentuje. Jde tedy o oblast pojímanou šířeji, než jak je vnímána vlastní kulturní diplomacie. V kulturním rozměru ČZP se setkáváme s projevy veřejné diplomacie, kromě již výše zmíněných, zejména v souvislosti se zahraniční prezentací státu.

Kulturní rozměr české zahraniční politiky

V roce 2012 nedošlo k vydání žádného zásadního koncepčního materiálu, který by ovlivnil kulturní dimenzi české zahraniční politiky, období však bylo spojeno s řadou očekávání, jakým způsobem se do praxe kulturní dimenze české zahraniční politiky promítnou dva zásadní dokumenty přijaté již v roce 2011. V prvním případě šlo o nastavení zahraničněpolitického rámce – zahraniční politiky jako celku (v roce 2011 byla vypracována nová Koncepce zahraniční politiky ČR), ve druhém případě o činnost Českých center – hlavního aktéra vnější prezentace ČR (v roce 2011 byla připravena nová Strategie Českých center na léta 2012–2015).

Kulturní rozměr české zahraniční politiky

Author(s): Eliška Tomalová,Jana Peterková / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

V rovině politických debat či v kontextu postojů jednotlivých politických stran k tématu veřejné či kulturní diplomacie, potažmo budování pověsti státu v zahraničí, platil i v roce 2013 v zásadě setrvalý stav. Tak jako byl rok 2012 spojen s očekáváními, zdali a jak se projeví Koncepce zahraniční politiky z roku 2011 a v témže roce zveřejněná Strategie Českých center, s rokem 2013 nebyla žádná podobná očekávání spojována. Kultura zůstala v postavení minoritního tématu, které nepatří k prioritám politické scény. Lze nicméně dohledat některá vyjádření čelných politických představitelů o významu kultury či kulturní diplomacie pro dobré jméno České republiky v zahraničí (viz část Kulturní rozměr české zahraniční politiky ve veřejném a mediálním prostoru). Byl také zpracován a zveřejněn dokument rezortního rázu, koncepce ministerstva kultury ve vztahu k zahraničí (viz část Agenda).

Example of the Connection Between Musicology and Music Education for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage

Author(s): Georg Brunner / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

For schools, the fundamental question is to what extent cultural heritage, and here specifically classical music, can play a role. In the scope of this paper, we will take an approach that places aspects of musicological research at the centre of music education. What role can musicological research play at schools and universities? In the following article, we will show how musicological (basic) research methods can be integrated into university teaching and school music lessons through relevant questions in a project-like approach. The focus is on exploring the musical culture of a region through archival work.
