Asymptotic consistency under large entropy sampling designs with unequal probabilities
No full textA large part of survey sampling literature is devoted to unequal probabilities sampling designs without replacement. Brewer and Hanif (1983) provided a summary of these sampling designs. The maximum entropy designs is one of them. Consistency results have been proven for the maximum entropy sampling (Hájek, 1964). The aim is to give sufficient conditions under which Hájek (1964) consistency results still hold for large entropy sampling designs which are different from the maximum entropy design. These conditions involve modes of convergence of sampling designs towards the maximum entropy design. We show that these conditions are satisfied for the popular Rao-Sampford (Rao, 1965, Sampford, 1967) design. Our consistency results are applied to the Hájek (1964) simple variance estimator. This estimator does not require joint-inclusion probabilities and can be easily estimated using weighted least squares regression (Berger, 2004, 2005b). Deville (1999) conjectured that this estimator is suitable for any sampling designs (see also Brewer and Donadio, 2003). Our consistency result gives regularity conditions under which this estimator is consistent which justifies Deville’s (1999) conjecture

"Hans Joas e Peter L. Berger: modernità e pluralismo religioso"
No full textQuesto saggio opera un confronto (ancora inedito nella letteratura internazionale) tra gli approcci di due dei più importanti sociologi
della cultura e della religione viventi: Hans Joas e Peter
L. Berger. I temi oggetto della analisi comparativa sono
l'auto-trascendenza e del pluralismo religioso. Nel saggio si mostra che a fronte di analogie tra i due approcci che si possono cogliere ad una prima lettura delle opere di questi autori, non meno importanti sono le differenze, che emergono ad una lettura critica, in particolare su due centrali: la natura del processo di secolarizzazione; il ruolo delle religioni nello spazio pubblico nelle società pluraliste contemporanee

Peter's L. Berger sociology of religion: development, reflections and critics
No full textTato práce se zaměřuje na postavu a dílo amerického luteránského sociologa Petera L. Bergera. Snaží se poskytnout základní nahlédnutí na jeho působení v oblasti sociologie náboženství, podává přehled o jeho stěžejních teoretických koncepcích a myšlenkách obsažených především v dílech The sacred canopy, A rumor of angles, The heretical imperative a A far flory, přičemž neopomíjí jak jeho dřívější práce, tak sledovat autorovu současnou vědeckou aktivitu. Důležitá část této práce se věnuje tématu (proměny) náboženství v moderní době, tak, jak ho vnímal právě Berger, sleduje posun v jeho názorech na sekularizaci i jeho chápání situace náboženství v pluralitní době, jak ze strany sociologa, tak věřícího. Práce dává nahlédnout na způsob, jakým Berger ve svých dílech uchopuje náboženský fenomén, všímá si autorových přesahů mimo (pro Bergera příliš úzký) referenční rámec empirických věd a zohledňuje jeho metodologická východiska. Tématem práce není samotný Berger a její určitá část je tak vyhrazena ohlasům na jeho dílo, a to jak kladným, tak záporným.This diploma thesis is focused on the personality and work of Lutehran sociologist Peter L. Berger. The thesis tries to grant basic inspection of his activity in the area of sociology of religion. Also, it provides survey of his pivotal theoretical conceptions and ideas which are contained mainly in works The sacred canopy, A rumour of angles, The heretical imperative and A far flory; whereas, it doesn´t omit not only his previous works, but it also follows author´s contemporary activity. The important part of the thesis is dedicated to the religion changes in modern age as Berger perceived them. It follows the shift in his opinions on secularization, and also his understanding of religion´ s situation in pluralistic age in both - sociologist´s and also believer´s point of view. This work provides inspection of the way that Berger uses to handle religious phenomenon. It takes notice of the author´s overlaps outside the referential scope (which is too narrow for Berger) of empiric sciences and it takes into account author´s methodologic resources. The subject of the thesis is not Berger himself, and therefore its certain part is appropriate to either positive, or negative public acceptance of his work.Katedra religionistiky a filosofieDokončená práce s úspěšnou obhajobo

Hans Joas and Peter L. Berger: Self-Transcendence in the Age of Contingency
No full textIl saggio compara il contrbuto specifico di due importanti sociologi della cultura contemporanei (Hans Joas e Peter L. Berger) sulla relazione tra auto-trascendenza e pluralismo culturale. L'autrice mostra che i due sono accomunati dalla centralità attribuita al tema della auto-trascendenza, ma osserva poi che i diversi approcci adottati nella elaborazione di una sociologia della cultura (pragmatista vs fenomenologico) portino poi Joas e Berger a offrire una lettura divergente sulla natura del processo di secolarizzazione e del pluralismo culturale
