Collectivization of agriculture and development of co-operative farms on the territory of Vysoký Hrádek until the disposal of villages
BARTUŠKA, Jan
The introduce text is a paper intended to portray the forcible transformation of the traditional way of life and farming in villages during the phase of their socialist restructuring in units smaller than a district. Events are comprehended through a combination of macro-historic and micro-historic approaches. Although the year 1949 (enactment of the Act on Unified Agrucultural Cooperatives) is considered the decisive turning point in regard to collectivisation, the whole period from the end of the Second World War is actually preparation for implementation of this Act. The Communists were capable of thoroughly and effectively utilising all opportunities to enforce their plans when seizing power. They then brutally and unscrupulously retained this power and enforced transformation of society according to their plans. Their subordination of rural areas is most visible during the nineteen fifties and the consequences are most apparent during the subsequent period. Because the communist regime was directive, this would always concern plans and orders from above and never politics realised from the bottom up. This also results in the sequence of portrayal of events, from their official form to realisation on site. Period documents are also appended to this work.
