Summary
Cílem předmětu je seznámit studenty se základy sociologie, a to s přihlédnutím k jejich orientaci na pomezí žurnalistiky a ekonomické vědy. Důraz bude proto kladen jednak na ty problémové okruhy, ve kterých se přístup sociologie od ekonomického liší, jednat na ty okruhy, v nichž se na různých úrovních odrážejí soudobé problémy ekonomicky globalizovaného světa.
