Abstract
As a result of social change the labour market has emerged in the Czech rep ublic. The process of its establishing is accompanied with the growing unem ployment rate now. Some social categories, which were lifted on the primary labour market up through the redistribution of sources by socialist state before. Nowadays they are moving down on the secondary labour market again. Their members have already became aware that their downward in the seconda ry labour market does not represent only a transitional costs necessary for their future life in affluence. Their perception of the decline of their o wn social position as a definitive one weakens legitimacy of the market for them. Anomie is growing up among them. A lot of people say today: "average men are getting worse now - compared it with the situation before 1989". T he most of people judge: "The social change has enlarged our civil right, i t has not touched our political right but it limited our social right."
