Abstract

The paper deals with the complicated process of coming to terms with the communist regime in Slovakia. Since the fall of the communism in 1989 the process has attracted the attention of researchers and the public. In many ways, this process is seen to have been unsuccessful –communist crimes remain unpunished and the “drawing of thick lines” prevails. Some representatives of the communist regime have even been honoured with memorial plaques, despite public protests. However, the situation has changed in recent years. Several acts have been adopted to help former political prisoners and to reduce the pensions of communist officials.
