Reflection of women's attitudes towards feminism and the concept of the private feminism in the Czech Republic
Abstrakt
The main objective of the present study is to understand better how Czech women construct their views on feminism and also the way they form their feminist identification. The article reflects the development and current situation of feminism in the Czech Republic, which is specific for its historically conditioned connotation.
Consequently the study presents the analytical results of the qualitative research. By applying the technique of semistructured interviews, the author brings up the questions of how Czech women perceive and understand feminism and how they interpret the current situation of women.
One of the main objectives of the empirical part is also to find out whether it is possible to apply Aronson's typology (2003) of feminism to the situation in the Czech Republic. Due to the specificity of the Czech environment, the author comes to the conclusion that there can be identified four different approaches to feminism.
Within this framework, the analysis of interviews led to the identification of several important factors that affect the construction of feminist consciousness among Czech women.
