As a part of February survey there were some questions focused on interest of Czech citizens in political events in the country as well as in the world and on involvement of Czech citizens in political and public life.

In February, the Public Opinion Research Centre examined views on the involvement of citizens in decision-making processes. People would like to make decisions primarily on important local issues. This view is supported by 83% of citizens. On the other hand, decisions on important laws and international treaties should do politicians.

Questions in the survey concerned the level of satisfaction with democracy, the evaluation of democracy as a form of government, respect to human rights, coequality and fairness in treating people and the evaluation of the politic system development since 1989. Current data are compared with the data on the same topic collected in previous surveys.

In December 2011 Public Opinion Research Centre carried out a survey about the situation in selected areas of public life in the year 2011. The Czech citizens evaluated how the situation developed in these areas and negative evaluation prevailed in most of them, for example, in unemployment, social security, corruption, public finances, economic crime, standard of living, healthcare, education and interpersonal relationships. The best evaluated area was the bid of goods and services.
