Diploma thesis discusses yuppie lifestyle and its successor bobo lifestyle in the context of postmodern transformation of society. Through the construction of weighted additive index of yuppie and bobo lifestyle the study is asking whether the young, economically active Czech population tends to these ways of life, or even has their representatives, to what extent they meet the American image of yuppies and bobos, which is their socio-demographic profile and mutual relationship. These questions are examined twice, in 2001 and in late 2011 and 2012, so we can observe development of these two lifestyles in terms of Ingelhart's transition theory from materialist to post-materialist values . The thesis shows that we can find a group of people professing the whole set of yuppie atittudes and also a group that is with some reservations similar to bobos. Detected high rate of closeness of both lifestyles, however, leads to a redefinition of purely materialistic yuppies for the Czech environment and to identification of yuppie lifestyle with post-materialist consciousness. Bobos are permanently characterized only by university education, pos-materialistic yuppies also by the highest personal income and household income. Number of post-materialist yuppies is more than twice bigger than bobos, during the...

Rural migration process resulted in both spatial and social problems in large Turkish cities. Squatter housing transformation constitutes the spatial dimension of the problem. On the other hand, rural migration has led to social problems such as non-integration, social exclusion and urban poverty of the migrant groups. This dissertation which believes the necessity of searching rural migration as a socio-spatial process attempts to explore the relationship between squatter housing transformation and social integration of rural migrants into the urban life. Within this framework, this study attempts to answer three major research questions: (1) What are the rural migrants&amp / #8217 / perceived attributes of urban integration? (2) Which attributes significantly explain urban integration of rural migrants? (3) Does the urban integration of rural migrants differentiate according to where they live &amp / #8211 / squatter housing neighborhoods, transformed squatter housing neighborhoods via improvement plans, and transformed squatter housing neighborhoods via urban transformation project model&amp / #8211 / ? I design this exploratory study as a case study since a case study method is an appropriate methodology for holistic and in-depth investigations. I conduct the case study of this thesis in Dikmen that includes different rural migrant settlements. I conduct in-depth interviews with rural migrants to collect the data, and apply multivariate analysis techniques to answer the research questions of this study. Thesis findings provide that urban integration is a multi-dimensional phenomenon / and multiple relationships exist between dimensions of urban integration, between dimensions and evaluations of urban integration, and urban integration and squatter housing transformation.

In this sense, it is ensured that there are attractive spaces for the migrants, while others can not be used. The conformation of Valparaiso de Goiás is due to the phenomenon. This place in the municipality in the contiguous with the Distrito Federal and characterizes it as attractive for the dwelling. In this overlay, spaces such as space, time and migration emerge as input. These are a possibility of understanding the process of contemporary urbanization in the state of Goiás and in the Metropolitan Area of Brasília-AMB. The impulses for the metropolization of the area of communication concentrate on the spatiality of capital. This migration and impact on the subjects in agreement agency. That is, to the extent that capital and, along with it, the jobs migrate, the subject is urged to migrate. The materialization of existence in the space of disputes requires a strategy elaboration that enables the nascent way of life. Like the definition of "space negotiations". In the warp you see negotiations, the subject engages the knowledge acquired in his past experience. These can be associated, directly or through archetypes, to a rural existence. Asymmetric, post-actualized in the present life, it is not a city space to cultivate factors of persistence and/or permanence of the rural life in the context of Brazilian and Goian urbanization. These elements result in difficulties for an appropriation of the urban space and for a materialization of life. Thus, it becomes relevant to know the conflicts of the apparent "slow life" left in the act of migrating in search of the possibility of a better life in the city, a nervous life. This confrontation highlights an invention of the inhabitants of Valparaiso de Goiás for a spatial negotiation interconnected by experiences of previous reminiscences as a strategy to live together in the city in contemporary times. In these conditions of coexistence, rural and urban ways of life are amalgamated in the fabric of metropolitan life. It is concluded that, due to the fact that a modern life experience has been extended in rural areas - the advent of urbanization in Brazil is recent - by the effective migration dynamics in national, regional and local territory, by the condition of birth From the city; The subjects that live there are not functional or mature to manage life in this urban space. / As transformações políticas e socioeconômicas no Brasil e no estado de Goiás nas últimas décadas são testemunhas e justificam as dinâmicas regionais e as mobilidades. Nesse sentido, assegura-se que há aí espaços atrativos para os migrantes, enquanto outros não possuem tal capacidade. A conformação de Valparaíso de Goiás é decorrente do fenômeno posto. Este coloca o município na contiguidade com o Distrito Federal e o caracteriza como atrativo para a moradia. Neste imbricamento, emergem como aporte as categorias espaço, tempo e migração. Estas nos possibilitam a compreensão do processo de urbanização contemporânea no estado de Goiás e na Área Metropolitana de Brasília-AMB. Os impulsos para a metropolização da referida área concentram-se na espacialidade do capital. Este migra e impulsiona os sujeitos a agirem em acordo. Ou seja, na medida em que o capital e, juntamente com ele, os postos de trabalho migram, o sujeito é instado a migrar. A materialização da existência neste espaço de disputas requer a elaboração de estratégias que viabilizem o modo de vida nascente. As referidas estratégias resultam “negociações espaciais”. Na urdidura destas negociações, o sujeito empenha os conhecimentos adquiridos em sua vivência pretérita. Estes podem associar-se, diretamente ou por meio de arquétipos, a uma existência no meio rural. Por assim ser, postulamos na presente tese que os sujeitos residentes no espaço citadino cultivam fatores de persistência e/ou permanência do modo de vida rural no contexto da urbanização brasileira e goiana. Tais elementos redundam nas dificuldades para a apropriação do espaço urbano e para a materialização da vida. Assim, torna-se relevante conhecer os conflitos da aparente “vida lenta” deixada no ato de migrar em busca da possibilidade por uma vida melhor na cidade, uma vida nervosa. Essa confrontação põe em relevo a invenção dos habitantes de Valparaíso de Goiás para a negociação espacial interconectada por experiências das reminiscências pretéritas como estratégias para viver juntos na cidade na contemporaneidade. Nessas condições de coexistência, amalgamam-se os modos de vida rural e urbano na tessitura da vida metropolitana. Donde se conclui que, pelo fato de a experiência de vida dos sujeitos modernos ter se passado em sua maior extensão no meio rural – o advento da urbanização no Brasil é recente – pela dinâmica migratória efetivada em território nacional, regional e local, pela condição nascitura da cidade; os sujeitos que aí habitam não acumularam experiências ou maturidade para gerir a vida neste espaço urbano.
