Předběžná náplň práce

Tato práce se zabývá problematikou kolem fenoménu střelby na školách ve Spojených státech amerických, kde se jedná o všudypřítomný problém, konkrétněji se tato práce zaměřuje na ideologii a motivace za nimi a na to, jakou roli hraje maskulinita v této formě násilí, snaží se představit některé z teorií, které byly předloženy pro pochopení této role a souvislostí, ale také provádí bilaterální analýzu manifest pěti vybraných školních střelců. Analýza využívá kvantitativní metodu známou jako LIWC, jejímž prostřednictvím nahlíží na texty komparativním způsobem, přičemž srovnává určitá použití rétoriky a slov s vytvořeným ukázkovým textem, přičemž analyzované kategorie jsou takové povahy jako jsou ku příkladu zbraně, násilí, autenticita nebo „incelská rétorika“. Druhou metodologií použitou pro kvalitativní část práce je fenomenologická metoda, která se snaží zvýraznit nalezené a mnohdy jednotné tropy v rámci jednotlivých textů a poukázat na určité části, které dokazují prezenci maskulinity a na ní závislých teorií. Tato oblast je poměrně důležitá, protože fenomén střelby ve školách byl za posledních 30 let neuvěřitelně silně prezentován jak v médiích, tak v politice ve Spojených státech amerických, nezdá se však, že by byla přijata nějaká konkrétní politická opatření, která by dokázala důsledně a důrazně zastavit šíření tohoto strašlivého způsobu manifestace násilí, proto se tato práce zaměřuje na jednu instrumentální část a její souvislosti v rámci širší debaty, kterou lze chápat jako spíše stagnující. Proto tato práce a obecněji akademické práce zaměřující se na konkrétní části a souvislosti za těmito útoky jsou nedílnou součástí nejen správného pochopení probíhajících procesů, ale také pro jejich řešení na politické úrovni.

Předběžná náplň práce v anglickém jazyce

This thesis deals with the issues surrounding the phenomenon of school shootings in the United States of America, where this is an ever-present issue; this thesis more specifically focuses on the ideology and motivations behind them and how masculinity plays a role in this form of violence, it seeks to present some of the theories that have been put forward for understanding this role and connection, but also does a bilateral analysis of manifestos of five selected school shooters. The analysis uses a quantitative method known as LIWC, through which it looks to at the texts in a comparative manner, comparing certain uses of rhetoric and words to a common sample text; the categories analysed there are of such nature as weaponry, violence, authenticity or “incel rhetoric”. The second methodology used for the qualitative part of the thesis is the phenomenological method, which seeks to highlight emerging tropes within the individual texts and highlight certain features that prove the theories of masculinity. This field is rather important since the school shooting phenomenon has been incredibly strongly presented in both media as well as policy making within the United States of America over the past 30 years. However, it does not seem as though any concrete policy measures enacted have been able to consistently and strongly stop the spread of this horrific way of enacting violence; hence this thesis focuses on one instrumental part and its connections within the larger debate, which could be understood to be relatively stagnant. Therefore, this thesis and, more generally, academic works focusing on specific parts and connections behind these attacks are integral for not only understanding the processes at play properly but also addressing them on a policy level.
