2. Ethik der Technik als Ausgangspunkt für die Praxis der Technikfolgenbeurteilung

Creator:
Machleidt, Petr
Type:
model:article and TEXT
Subject:
filozofie, philosophy, ethics of technology, technology assessment, respon sibility, technological culture, values, sustainable development, 5, and 101
Language:
Czech
Description:
This article concentrates on development of the mutual relations between ethics of technology (taken as a philosophical discipline) and so called technology assessment (as a branch dealing with multi- and transdisciplinary socio-scientific issues). It shows both identical and different signs of the interactions on examples taken from Germany and from the Czech Republic. Discussion on technology in Germany is noted for its strong moral charge - we can find here both enthusiasm for technology as well as very clean cut anti-technology attitudes. As for the Czech environment, there comes to mutual mixing of various attitudes - we can trace here inspiration taken from other countries - for example from France. The original contribution of the Czech way of thinking in the field of philosophy on technology in relation to ethics represents also so called conception of laboretism. Globally said, it appears that disputes over technology have their cause in various ethical attitudes of interested stakeholders. But different conceptions of what is and/or what is not ethical can be and should be analysed by rational means. Various practical objectives of the social technology assessment should not displace ethics in technology as a methodology of discursive management of technology conflicts. Scientific consultancy has to comprise both its descriptive and prescriptive aspects. It gives a new sense to interdisciplinary co-operation among various scientific disciplines and science and technology ethics. and Petr Machleidt.

3. Mapping the relationship between higher education and sustainable development

Creator:
Holm, Claus and Martinsen, Anders
Format:
text/pdf
Type:
Article
Subject:
higher education, sustainable development, curricula, lifelong learning, security and resilience, and Educational Sciences
Language:
English
Description:
The article presents different approaches to the relationship between higher education and sustainable development. Its purpose is firstly to provide an overview of four main approaches to this relationship and their key conflicts. Secondly, it argues that the approach "lifelong learning skills for a resilient life" is beginning to establish itself as part of a main conflict with the approach "necessary knowledge for a secured life." That is to say that these two approaches to the question of the relationship between higher education and sustainable development are in conflict with each other and with understanding of higher education, in casu with the curriculum and assessment activity of the university, as well as with sustainable development. This gives rise to very different conditions for future forms of life and learning inside, as well as outside, higher education.

6. Reliability verification of industrial heritage buildings

Creator:
Sýkora, Miroslav and Holický, Milan
Format:
bez média and svazek
Type:
model:article and TEXT
Subject:
industrial heritage, reliability assessment, probabilistic methods, sustainable development, and conversion
Language:
English
Description:
A number of factories, warehouses, power plants and other industrial buildings have been recognized as industrial culture heritage. At present considerable effort of architects and civil engineers is aimed at re-use of these structures in order to preserve their cultural and heritage value and to avoid wasting energy. However, heritage structures usually do not fulfil requirements of present codes of practice. Simplified conservative procedures of design of new structures given in present codes may lead to expensive repairs and losses of the cultural and heritage value when applied to existing structures. In accordance with EN 1990 and ISO 13822 a probabilistic procedure is proposed to improve the reliability assessment of industrial heritage buildings. The procedure is applied in the reliability assessment of a steel member. and Obsahuje seznam literatury

Description:
Činorodý zemědělec, který se denně pohybuje na poli a v lese, přesně ví, jaké druhy kamení se válejí v okolí jeho domku. Zkušenost generací mu napověděla, z čeho je vhodné stavět zídku, z čeho základ domu, jaká hlína byla dobrá na vymazání trámů na povalu nebo kachlů v kamnech a z čeho se pálily cihly a vápno. V lomu za vsí, odkud pochází kámen na podezdívku a který byl zatopen vodou po průvalu, se jako dítě koupal. Současné městské prostředí, které koncentruje stále větší počet obyvatel, takovou přímou zkušenost se skalami, kameny a půdou odepřelo již několikáté generaci lidí, která vnímá umělé prostředí s dominanntním asfaltem a betonem. Ojediněle použitý přírodní dekorační kámen ve formě plastiky či obkladu na zdi je už dovezený, nemá svůj přirozený tvar a postrádá kontinuitu svého geologického okolí in situ, tedy na místě svého vzniku. and Veronika Štědrá.
