Note to academic stay
Three-weeks academic stay is planend in 32nd
month of the project at time of intensive work on the book.
The stay will take place in London, LSE and in Milton Keynes, OU. In London especially the rich library
sources will be exploited (especially theory, and the sources on situation in Western Europe). The stay in
Milton Keynes will be dedicated to consultations with the Open University scholars in contemporary
religiosity and field research Marion Bowman and Graham Harvey.
1 The work plan expects that the book research in theory will continue throughout the project almost up to its end.
This activity does not have any particular deliverable since the results of this work are presented in another scientific
deliverables (i.e. journal studies, conference presentations, book).
2 Document research on the history of the Czech yoga since 1936 up to 1980s ­ as mentioned in Methodology section
- is preliminary for the field research. As such it does not have a separate deliverable. The results will be presented
in deliverables related to the fist phase of the field research.
3 Final report is submitted after the project is in fact finished. The same applies to the book publication bellow. Only
the publication of the book to a publisher fits within the margines of the proposed research.
4 Depends in fact on publisher.
