The article looks at the use of sociological tools to address the issue of young people's housing in general and at the local level. One such tool has been the use of polls on the housing situation, which are conducted in 267 towns in the Czech Republic and which have provided the first opportunity to document the problem of housing among individual types of families and households at the town level. Young families and newly established households were assessed as the biggest risk group in terms of being able to obtain independent housing. On the basis of these findings, in 1998 a Young Couples' Housing Register was set up. It contains information from completed questionnaires submitted by participating towns. These questionnaires and the registered data are evaluated annually to develop an outline of the housing situation in towns and the attitudes of young couples toward it. The housing situation of young households and others interested in obtaining a flat is examined for a period of 3-4 years using standardised questions on respondents' attitudes and ideas about the housing policy in the given town. This information is then used in the formation of the towns' housing policy and housing development plans.

The right to housing is derived from one of the most basic and natural human needs - the need to live someplace. However, its content is not only the ‚right to live‘, but is complemented by a complex of other interrelated and interdependent social and human rights, including, for example, the right to access to safe drinking water and sanitation, the right to access to resources, including the energy for cooking, heating and lighting, the right to privacy, the right to security, including security of tenure, and many others. Given its strong social dimension and its broad human rights dimension, it is therefore understandably the subject of attention in a number of major legal documents of international importance, which refer to fundamental human rights, social progress and better living conditions. Within the Slovak Republic, the right to housing is considered to be a social right with a special character, since it is not understood as an individual right claimable against society, but as a right based on the co-responsibility of society towards the citizen. Several provisions of public and private law serve to protect it. In private law, cases in which housing is provided in a dwelling that is not owned by the occupant, i.e. where the occupant lives in someone else‘s dwelling, are more sensitive. The extent to which such housing is protected is constantly debated and there is probably no ‚one right answer‘. When looking for a way to optimise the mutual rights and obligations of the landlord and tenant, it is advisable to look for inspiration (also) in foreign legislation which, on the one hand, takes into account the strong social charge of rental housing and the need to ‚protect the weaker‘, i.e. the tenant, but at the same time respects and mirrors the natural boundaries of traditional private law institutions - property rights and tenancy rights - in their legal and true essence.

Housing and utilities is one of the priority sectors of the economic complex, with the task of stable functioning of settlements on the territory of Ukraine. However, it is this sector hardly touched by the hand of the market economy. Today one of the most pressing social and economic problems in Ukraine is the content of the existing housing stock in good condition, its efficient operation, maintenance and development. The article analyses the development of the real estate market, the technical condition of the housing stock. Currently existing innovative ways to manage multi-family houses and determined the optimal control method based on the agreement between the association of co-owners of apartment buildings (condominiums) and professional managers are investigated. Strengths, weaknesses and threats of professional management are investigated. A scheme of professional housing management is developed by the authors.

Collective homes and housing collectivization are phenomena that are usually considered to be ideologically close to Marxism and anarchism. In the 19th century, however, socialization of domestic work was part of various ideological streams, from social democrats to the business establishment. At the beginning of the 20th century, various forms of collective housing garnered the attention of the Czech intellectual elite. Information about collective housing came either directly from the United States of America or from Germany and Scandinavia. Czech sociologists regarded it as a contribution to social solidarity; feminists, on the contrary, as an instrument for the reinforcement of the family. The concept of homes with central kitchens came to Bohemia not only as part of a political and economic discourse but also in utopian novels and as part of architectural debates. Czech architecture and literature were, however, reserved about collective housing. The first larger reflection on central kitchens did not appear in Czech architecture until the beginning of the 1920s, on the margins of debates about the garden city. Among feminists, in contrast, we can see an uninterrupted interest in the socialization of domestic work during the entire first four decades of the 20th century. And it was feminists who managed to give the theoretical deliberations a real, albeit very constrained architectural form.

Our paper has two major aims. First of all, we would like to emphasize the role of the National Census in developing social policy both as an academic discipline and as practice. Despite unquestionable value and usefulness of the data provided by the National Census we would also like to point out the traps and obstacles in reading and understanding some data. Secondly, we will analyze data obtained from the National Census 2002 regarding housing issues. Therefore, we will illustrate and compare the recent data with data taken from other studies in the past, trying to draw conclusions which will demonstrate housing problems in a time perspective in modern Poland.

The text deals with the efforts to save housework in relation to the process of women’s emancipation. Since the 19th century, using gas, electricity and modern devices in the household promised to eliminate physical exertion and to speed up work substantially. In the process women were to acquire time to participate in education and cultural life. In the 20th century we see a differentiation in women’s roles: educated professional women got rid of most domestic work by hiring other women to perform it. After the Second World War and in relation to the mobilization of women from homes to employment, the communist regime announced the project of the liberated household. A specialized enterprise was to provide full services to households: laundry, cleaning and mending of clothes, cleaning and others. Daily boarding was to be ensured by kitchens in preschool facilities, schools and factories. The displacement of a majority of housework from the household did not succeed, the services sector in real socialism permanently lagged behind the needs of households, and the weight of the second shift was born primarily by women. Since the 1970s the limited market offer and the limitations of public life resulted in various types of domestic activities flourishing further. The text also deals with the maximum rationalization of domestic operation as it has been implemented in the experiment of collective housing. The restriction on the kitchen space which was also reproduced in the housing cores of panel apartment buildings did not work operationally or socially. Food preparation and eating together remained important elements of family life, and today kitchens are the center of a functional home. Cooking has become a recognized activity in which men also participate. Most chores performed in the 19th century by women are carried out today by machines or have been taken over by the industry and paid services. What remains is work related to childcare and nursing the sick and elderly. The recognition and valuation of these activities, performed primarily by women, remain unresolved.

Home is not only a fulfilment of the primary human needs to have a nest, but it is a part of the process of social identification of any individual. When creating home, many factors influence the decision-making process, from personal preferences, taste, ideal notions and social aspirations to broader social and economical factors. However, the need to have a home can be satisfied only when the individual acquires the using rights for the dwelling. The paper focuses on the relationship between personal constructing of property and objectification of the individual through the process of home creation. The data, acquired through in-depth qualitative interviews in Stockholm in the spring 2009, are the means of analyzing the concepts of home and property as individualized processes.

This article aims at finding a theoretical and empirical explanation for the particular housing privatisation approach applied in the Czech Republic. The explanation pays special attention to inequalities in owner-occupied housing accessibility created by housing privatisation. In order to explain the process of housing privatisation, the article discusses theories of social change (transition, transformation and path dependence). The following qualitative empirical analysis of alternative theoretical explanations consists of thirteen semi-structured interviews with politicians, state officials, municipal experts and local citizen movements. In addition, the data from the interviews is commented with the use of the data from public opinion about housing policy. In the conclusion, the author critically evaluates the usefulness of presented theories (especially path dependence) and states that the privatisation process should be explained as a transformation rather than a transition, with a specific role played by ideology. The analysis led to a conclusion that the consequences were unseen given the “ad-hoc” feature of policy decisions.

The aim of the paper is to define the main features of the reverse mortgage, to present the socio-economic situation of seniors in the Slovak Republic, to present the results of a survey aimed at the interest of seniors in using a reverse mortgage and formulating recommendations for application practice. The questionnaire survey was realised nationwide in all regions on a sample of 925 respondents. Of the total number of respondents, only 16% of property owners showed interest in a reverse mortgage. The answers of the respondents showed that the main reason for the lack of interest in the reverse mortgage is the unwillingness to break the intergenerational property transfer, which confirms the traditionally strong family relations and family solidarity in the Slovak Republic.

The choice between buying and renting house is usually referred to as tenure choice. Existing literature defines several typical factors (patterns) which influence this key decision every household has to make. In our analysis we propose one more factor which might be of interest. Based on the data covering last phase of the rent deregulation process in the Czech Republic (CR) in 2005 – 2011 we assess to what extent rent deregulation in the CR has influenced the tenure choice patterns. Our analysis using logit model did prove that regulated rents were an important factor affecting tenure choice. After deregulation households living in apartments with regulated rent preferred to buy house rather than stay in rental sector. The results show that also in the CR was tenure choice influenced by household income, education, marital status. By contrast, gender, age, number of children or retired persons in the household turned out to be insignificant.

The transformation of rural communities in Slovakia was also reflected in the architectural and urban design of rural settlements. Changes in the architectural and urban design of rural settlements reflect the ongoing socio-structural changes in rural communities. However, these socio-structural and architectural-urbanistic changes have different intensity and different forms in various regions of Slovakia. At present, local development transformations are not only conditional on the needs and ambitions of the local population, but also on the new "players" of development processes - the new homeowners, the stakeholder groups in the manufacturing sector and the service sector, such as investors (developers) in the area of housing. This is particularly intense in suburbanized areas of large cities. It brings a whole range of positive but also problematic social and spatial processes, forming rural space. In a number of cases, this also significantly changes the character and expression of rural settlements and rural landscapes.

This article aims to contribute to the ongoing debate on the concept of a group as it is understood within the social sciences. The paper investigates how the living conditions created by organizations influence mutual relationships among Czech and Slovak migrants in London. Concerning particular way of accommodation (share houses) and virtual space, it is argued that organizations play a significant role in the constitution of a common 'Czecho-Slovakian' community through their marketing strategies. Sharing living and working spaces, Czechs and Slovaks have an opportunity to know each other and to establish close relationships without accentuating their ethnic affiliation. Although in the certain situations the ethnic schema is activated, the authoress of the study suggests that the life style of the migrants plays more significant role then their ethnic belonging in the formation of the personal relationships.
