The future success, vitality and viability of urban shopping areas in Slovakia have attracted considerable attention from academics and policymakers alike over the last few years. This paper reports the current state of the urban retail environment in Bratislava (Slovakia) as a result of various transition waves that reflect its changes over a forty-four year period (1967 – 2011). The outcome of this paper is the identification of concentric zones with the highest rates of changes based on analysis of old and new retail data from both temporal and spatial aspects. In addition to this, it also offers a variety of approaches to measuring the change of urban retail environment in a post-communist city.

The article deals with the concept of community organizing. First, the concept is explained from the theoretical point of view, in terms of political (civil) participation as a key prerequisite of substantive democracy and in context of its crisis, both in old democracies and post-communist societies. Later, it is considered as practice in its birthplace, in the American context, where community organizing is remarkably popular and effective. Subsequently, the article is focusing on research the possibility of using this concept in post-communist context, especially in the Slovak society. It shows that the lack of structural base (vibrant civil society in particular) and political legacy of authoritarianism are the main inhibitory factors in the development of civic political culture, which is the key sociocultural prerequisite of political participation, and consequently of community organizing.

Despite class being one of the main characteristics of society, the study of class seems to be noticeably disappearing from social sciences. The following text is divided into two parts. The first is devoted to the class in general and the author deliberately focuses on authors whose contribution to the class theory has not been fully appreciated and also on those who represent the cultural turn in the study of class. This choice represents an alternative to the dominant stratification theory and research based solely on the connection between class and occupation. She suggests multidimensional conceptual frames of class that take into account also the categories of lifestyle and inequalities created alongside the axes of gender, ethnicity and age. In the second part of the text the author focuses on the working class. The process of definition and specification of this broad and diverse category is also the object of my interest. She is interested in the existence of the working class under the conditions of the post-industrial society in post-communist countries. Against the background of the rich tradition of international research my goal is to highlight the conceptual and methodological changes of the understanding of the working class. The author argues for the importance of research on working class and she foreshadows the possible research heading in this diverse and rich field.
