Original abstract

The paper deals with non-traditional but highly needed issues: to formulate criteria of scientific activity. It is really unbelievable that in the period of information and scientific society there is a lack of such criteria and the assessment of scientific activities is totally voluntary. In the presented paper the authors have tried to propose attributes of scientific activities.

Czech abstract

Příspěvek se zabývá netradiční, ovšem vysoce potřebnou tématikou: formulovat kritéria vědecké činnosti. To umožní recenzentům objektivně hodnotit vědeckost či nevědeckost posuzovaných prací (disertačních, habilitačních, výzkumných apod.). Bude ukázáno, že vymezit „vědeckost“ vyžaduje vymezit pojem „věda“.
