Everyday life in the student dormitories in the post-1968 Czechoslovakia
 Horký, Adam ; Pullmann, Michal (advisor) ; Randák, Jan (referee)
The work focuses on everyday life of students of Charles University in Prague living in university dormitories during 1970s and 1980s. It shows most common ways of spending free time, cultural and social activities and it also deals with the subject of foreign students. It raises the question on the amount of autonomy the students had or had not for achieving their goals and needs. It pays attention on a specific double role that many of the students had while being members of student milieu as well as official structures - Communist Party of Czechoslovakia or Socialist Union of Youth. It also investigates negotiation between students, members of official structures and employees of dormitories in order to achieve certain form of status quo that would be acceptable for all the inhabitants of the dormitories seeking their "quiet life". Furthermore, specific forms of ideological work that included participation of every student are looked into, including the elections. Attention is also paid to official ideological language and its role in legitimizing students' needs. Chosen space and its inhabitants offer one of many possible views and explanations of specific stability of 1970s and 1980s communist regime in Czechoslovakia.
