Issues in Masaryk´s Views on Czech Historical and Natural Law
Neudorflová, Marie L.
Since the Czech politics unsuccessfully focused from the 1860s on installing the Czech State Law as the way towards greater sovereignty of the Czech Kingdom in the Habsburg Monarchy, in the 1890s Masaryk made great efforts to propose the principle of natural law as a similarly legitimate principle for achieving more independent status for the Czech nation. In broad context the article reviews complex relevant argumentation od the period.

Founding values of Czech Society – the state of research
Broklová, Eva
Six studies on founding values of Czech modern society between the end of the 19th century and the mid1900 investigate the nature of Czech political culture. The findings indicate that shared political values are prevailingly democratic. Consequently, they support the thesis that the nature of the first Republic and its society was democratic.
