Anotace

V originále

This article is based on data found in the European Value Study of 1999 and focuses on the following questions: (1) What is the degree of intensity of xenophobia among the Czech population in comparison with the states of Western and post-Communist Europe? (2) How is the view of 'foreign' ethnic group differentiated? (3) What groupings among countries may be identified if we examine the character of xenophobic attitudes among the population? (4) What factors influence the level of xenophobia of an individual? The article confirms the overall high degree of intensity of xenophobia among the population of post-communist countries in comparison with advanced Western states. The intensity of xenophobia among the Czechs roughly corresponds to the average of attitudes of the entire sample. From the viewpoint of attitudes toward individual 'foreign' ethnic groups, the respondents expressed the strongest rejection of the Roma, and were most tolerant toward the Jewish ethnic group. The EVS data also enabled a partial identification of traits for a profile of a xenophobe.
