Interdisciplinary Scientific Teams at the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences and Charles University in the 1960s
Hoppe, Jiří
The conference paper provides a brief overview of the genesis and activities of four interdisciplinary scientific teams (Šik's team, Richta's team, Machonin's team and Mlynář's team), which significantly co-created social and political dynamics in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic in the 1960s. It shows how these teams supported changes and innovations in the way the CPC's leading role was exercised, how they newly analyzed the parameters and limits of the current state system, and how they thought out and inspiringly modeled alternatives for its future.

The attempts to restore the Czech civil society in 1968. The social democracy, Club of the engaged non-party men and K 231 - Association of former political prisoners

The major subject of this thesis is to follow the activities of the restoring Czech civil society during the Prague Spring era that were aimed at setting up a plurality political system, at the decomposition of one-party government, or at the changes in the self-contained (closed) National Front system as it had emerged, or had been forcibly formed after 1948 February. The Phenomenon of the restoring civic society has been presented here in three specific models, namely the civic and political activation preserving the efforts to restore a traditional political party (namely Social Democratic Party), to be followed by the pre-political and in its substance clubbing activities of the non-party public in formation of Club of Engaged Non- Party Men, a lucidly nondescript organization; finally then, a formally clearly determinate K- 231 club endeavouring the judicial, civic and social rehabilitation of its members. Within the contexts of the Prague Spring events, these are the most fragrant documents of self-formation of the citizens without assistance of the political power; in the final effects, even against it. The attempt to restore the Social Democracy (Social Democratic Party, SDP in further) during the Prague Spring 1968 era could be appreciated as an intuitive effort to impair the dogma on the so-called...
