This article analyses the public-private pay gap in the Czech Republic using quantile (decomposition) regression. Quantile decomposition analysis showed that all along the distribution, public sector employees are better equipped (have better characteristics) but up from lowest decile, they have worse return on them (lower regression coefficients). Overall earnings are better in the public sector in the lower segments of wage distribution, but worse in the upper. This is due to the effect of coefficients that weigh more heavily upon the effect of characteristics up from the fifteenth percentile.

This case study focuses on one of the principles of theatre decomposition and illustrates it with the analysis of the staging of the contemporary opera Muž v skafandri [Man in a Spacesuit, 2020] of the composer and librettist Miroslav Tóth, directed by Jan Komárek. The aim of this study is to zoom in on contemporary cross-media and cross-genre trends in Slovak theatre productions that use new technologies, by which theatre makers intervene into the composition of the staging by deconstructing its means of expression. The scenes of the productions are fragmentized; the theatre makers break them down into their basic components to find new possibilities and meanings, while the recipients perceive these associatively.

The research tests a modernization model (Welzel et al. 2003; Inglehart – Welzel 2009; 2010) applied to post-socialist societies in comparison with West European countries. The linear decomposition analysis of integrated World Values Survey (waves WVS1994-1999, WVS1999-2004, WVS2005-2007) and European Values Study (waves EVS1999-2001, EVS2008-2010) data showed that Inglehart’s socialization hypothesis (Inglehart 1990), which is related to a fundamental emancipative shift in values, was true for both selected West European and post-socialist countries with minor exceptions. However, the study demonstrates that the observed variability in value change in different countries in Europe is due to specific country-level contextual effects and not the population turnover. This finding confronts the assumption of exclusiveness of socialization against historical period in forming value orientations. Nevertheless the study supports in part the tested modernization model and proves that post-socialist societies (including Post-soviet) can follow a path of development which is similar to advanced Western Europe if the economic security increases.

If we attempted to clarify symbolically the course which has eventuated into the current „global crisis“ especially in the field of examination of the dichotomy of life and death, the most appropriate statement would be the famous Nietzsche´s figural sentence: „God is dead.“ Nietzsche was the first philosopher who exposed the European nihilism relating to fall of universal values and decomposition of traditional morality. Nietzsche´s philosophy and work is still very current that´s why it is really vital and purpose-made for our needs. Decomposition of traditional morality and destruction of metaphysical centre are both events, in which we should look for the reasons and purpose of the European nihilism that Nietzsche supposed.
