HOW TO EDUCATE CZECH CHILDREN: SOCIAL NETWORK AS A SPACE OF PARENTAL ETHNOTHEORIES NEGOTIATION
Abstract
Paper introduces, upon the context of gender-role divisions, current parental ethnotheories applied to childhood learning in the Czech Republic. It illuminates work-or-care dilemma women are still facing and pinpoints different life strategies that Czech families conclude from it. It introduces a new term – cosmology of education, and relates to it theories of institution-centred learning and unschooling. Data used to support the theory come from longitudinal research on schooling in the Czech society, especially the analysis of four most frequented on-line discussion forums regarding parenthood and education in current Czech society. Young women on maternity leave constitute today far the most numerous and active group to be found on social networks, blogs and discussion forums. Its analysis thus provides a valid field of studying ethnotheories of current generations and as such gives away dominant trends in all sorts of social interaction, including up-bringing and childhood learning.
