Metody hodnocení
There will be two essays (based on required reading) during the term and a final exam. The final examination is based on all required readings of the course. That is the basic knowledge of introductory sociology as it is found in Anthony Giddens Sociology (4th edition, from the Polity Press) is an object of examination, too.
