“…However, historically Central Europe was a transit pathway for numerous military campaigns that significantly contributed to the diversity of the “Czech gene pool” during the Middle Ages. Nowadays more than 94% of people living in the Czech Republic declare themselves as Czechs, thereby creating an overwhelming majority . Several population studies involving autosomal STRs , Y‐STRs , insertion‐deletion polymorphisms , and unlinked X‐STRs were performed on Czech population.…”

DNA samples of 523 unrelated anonymized individuals (307 males and 216 females) born and living in the Czech Republic were genotyped using Investigator® Argus X-12 system in the following loci localized in four linkage groups: DXS10148, DXS10135, DXS8378, DXS7132, DXS10079, DXS10074, DXS10103, HPRTB, DXS10101, DXS10146, DXS10134, DXS742. Haplotype frequencies were calculated for each LG (Linkage Group). The frequency of most common haplotype was 0.016, 0.036, 0.042, and 0.023 for LG1, LG2, LG3, and LG4, respectively. The combined power of discrimination was more than 0.999999999 both for female and male samples. The mean exclusion chance was 0.99999999 (trios) and 0.999999 (duos). Informativity and suitability of Investigator® Argus X-12 for kinship determination was assessed by computing in several female-female duos using LR (Likelihood Ratio) determination for autosomal STR (PowerPlex ESI-17), linked (Investigator® Argus X-12 system), and unlinked (X-STR Decaplex) X-STR kits. Investigator® Argus X-12 proved to be very useful for sibship determination, since its LR values were relatively similar to LR for autosomal STR kit. This work presents the first population data for Investigator® Argus X-12 system in the Czech Republic.

“…Dunbar and Simonová (2003) reflect upon two previous studies conducted during the Czech transition period to EU adhesion. Nedomová and Kostelecký (1997) suggest that with the dissolution of CzechoSlovakia, this rendered Czech culture and society homogenously ethnic. In doing so, Czech identity excludes Jews, Roma, and Orientals.…”

A research agenda on Czech attitudinal perspectives in an era of digital transformation

This discussion centres on the growing impact of the transformation to digitalisation in various industry sectors. Enterprises seek to engage individuals who possess an appropriate profile to fulfil vacancies or new positions to assist in the transformation endeavour. Traditional job descriptions are replaced by the need for agile technical skills, project management competencies, and critical thinking. Challenges increase proportionally to the local employment rate. To evaluate such an impact, a project has been established to determine the reaction of employers once confronted with the lack of same-culture candidates. This manuscript represents the first phase of the project wherein the status quo is documented through an analysis of the extant literature. The findings of this exercise then serve as a benchmark from which survey results are monitored. Although the literature review does not dispel all Czech stereotypes, it does provide a more realistic image of Czech cultural traits and characteristics.

The aim of the article is to analyze the territorial identity of the inhabitants of Czechia and Slovakia with an emphasis on interregional disparities. The territorial identity of the inhabitants represents their territorial consciousness, their relationship to formal territorial units with some degree of administration. Paper is divided into two main parts – the first part deals with the issue of territorial identity and the second part deals with the analysis of current territorial consciousness of the inhabitants of Czechia and Slovakia. When analyzing the current territorial identity, we pay attention to both the comparison of the consciousness of the inhabitants of Czechia and Slovakia and interregional differences regarding the degree of such consciousness. The source of our data necessary for the analysis is taken from the ISSP 2003 survey programme called “National Identity II”.
