Tension between Capitalism and Democracy
Brabec, Martin
2011 - Czech
In my article I focus on features producing tension betwen democracy and capitalism. First, I show contradictions betwen personal and private rights and present the ways in which these contradictions have been eliminated during history. Next, I focus on how in capitalism powers relations penetrate various social spheres and squeeze democratic decision. Consequently, in capitalism there arise areas where power is not accountable and the voice of the people is silent in spite of the fact that decisions concerning the people are made there. V článku rozebírám rysy, které způsobují napětí mezi demokracií a kapitalismem. Nejprve ukazuji rozpory mezi osobními a vlastnickými právy a způsob, jak v dějinách docházelo k jejich smiřování. Poté se věnuji otázce, jak v kapitalismu pronikají mocenské vztahy do rozmanitých sociálních oblastech, kde vytlačují demokratické rozhodování. V kapitalismu tak vznikají oblasti, kde moc nemusí skládat účty, kde hlas lidu nemá žádné zastoupení, přestože se zde rozhoduje o jeho osudu.

Is Semiotic Also Competent for Man's Communication with Technical Artefacts
Tondl, Ladislav
2011 - English
The paper justifies the competence of semiotics for studying and explaining the communication between man and technical artefact. This includes the languages of communication forms, the ability of both participants to accept, to understand and to create adequate reactions. For all types of these communication forms, there exist requirements placed not only on the technical artefact, but also on the human partner or user including not only the sufficient ability, knowledge equipment, but also the value aspects and responsibility.

Borders of Narrative Analysis
Koblížek, Tomáš
2011 - Czech
The author argues that a text displaying the parameters of narrative may not be necessarily grasped by categories of narratological description such as function, focalization etc. The narratology itself may be questioned considering the fact that the subject of this discipline is description of the narrative langue or code. Consequently, these statements are elaborated on in reference to the general principles of the linguistic of parole and following the concept of "rhythm" introduced by Henri Meschonnic. V předkládané studii autor hájí tezi, že text vykazující parametry narativu nemusí být nutně uchopován prostřednictvím narativních kategorií (funkce, fokalizace ad.). Naratologie vůbec může být podrobena kritice, nakolik je status jejího předmětu (narativní jazyk či kód) problematický. Tyto teze autor dále rozvíjí na základě tzv. "lingvistiky mluvy" a za pomoci pojmu rytmu, jak ho do literární vědy zavádí Henri Meschonnic.

On Some Aspects of the Controversy between Anthropocentrism and Biocentrism in the Environmental Philosophy
Hála, Vlastimil
2010 - Czech
The autor analyses the terms: interest, intrinsic value, kind of life and natural world and comes to the conclusion that the position, which is expressed in the term "anthropocentric standpoint" and which is evaluated in the environmental philosophies mainly in the negative way, represents a better theoretical and practical basis for the desirable humane relationship to the nature in the environmental meaning than biocentric conceptions argue for. The author pleads for the enlarged concept of the "anthropocentrism" in the meaning of "cultivated anthropocentrism". Autor analyzuje pojmy: zájem, vnitřní hodnota, způsob bytí a přirozený svět a dospívá k názoru, že to, co je nazýváno antropocentrickým postojem a co je v ekologických filosofiích hodnoceno převážně negativně, je lepším teoretickým i praktickým základem pro ekologicky žádoucí vztah člověka k přírodě. Autor zastává "rozšířenou" koncepci antropocentrismu ve smyslu antropocentrismu kultivovaného.

It focuses on his reception of Suárez's metaphysics, namely the reception of the issues of possibles, the nature of distinction between the essential and existential being of the finite beings and the question of eternal truths.

Ernst Mach and Evolutionary Conception of Science
Havlík, Vladimír
2010 - Czech
Mach's evolutionary conception of science is often neglected and did not received sufficient attention in the course of interpretation of his work. This article aims to emphasize such aspects of Mach's philosophy of science as his evolutionary epistemology, biological function of science, variable and historical character of all theorizing, theory laden character of observation and holism. All these aspects show that biological motives are substantial for Mach’s conception and that from this perspective it could be understood as a compact and logically interconnected system. This view suggests a more adequate interpretation of Mach‘s work and through the evolutional perspective understand him much more consistently. Evoluční pojetí vědy je u Macha často opomíjeno nebo mu není věnována odpovídající pozornost, pokud jde o interpretaci jeho díla. Příspěvek chce zdůrazněním takových aspektů Machovy filosofie vědy, jako je evoluční epistemologie, biologická funkce vědy, proměnlivý a historický charakter všeho teoretizování, zatíženost pozorování teorií a holismus, ukázat, že podstatným způsobem dokreslují jeho koncepci a umožňují ji nahlédnout jako kompaktní a logicky propojený systém. Tímto způsobem lze získat adekvátnější interpretaci Machova díla a prostřednictvím evoluční perspektivy ho pochopit mnohem konzistentněji.

Maxmilian Wietrowski SJ on Future Contingents
Svoboda, David
2010 - English
The paper deals with the problem of the truth-value of the propositions about so-called future cotingents events as it was put forth by the Czech Jesuit M. Wietrowski (1660-1737). Wietrowski defens the general validity of the law of excluded middle as well as of the principle of bivalence and that is why he says that any proposition about the future kontingent event has determinate truth-value independently of the Divine decree.

Prominent margin: Imagination of the Czech-German borderland in 19th and 20th century literature
Řezníková, Lenka
2010 - Czech
The study deals with the concept of the Czech-German "borderland" as a spatial, mental ad social figure participing in the construction of the ethnic (national and cultural) differences and of otherness in general. Interpreting 19th and 20th century Czech literary texts, it shows the main transformations of this concept, from the idea of language frontier (dominating in the 19th century) to representation of the border territory (in the 20th century) Underscoring the cultural and historical conditionality of the frontier as a social institution, and the influence of cartography for its socialization, the study focuses on the spatial and semiotic consequences of these transformations. Studie se zabývá literárními reprezentacemi česko-německého „pomezí”. Na českých literárních textech z 19. a 20. století se snaží ukázat základní proměny konceptu pomezí: od výchozí představy “jazykové hranice”, která dominovala v 19. století, k představě pohraničí, která se ustavila během 20. století. Pokouší se tak konceptualizovat, jak se jinakost promítá do prostoru, resp. jak povědomí jinakosti spoluurčuje mentální mapování prostoru. Ve svém pojetí vychází studie z konceptu kulturní a historické podmíněnosti vnímání prostoru, přičemž zohledňuje i vliv kartografie jako média prostorové imaginace a nástroje produkce prostoru.
