Abstract
In 2015 and 2017 the Czech Republic adopted two strategic documents that were aimed to support Czech nationals in positions within international organisations (IOs). In this article, we explore the rationale of the Czech government in doing so. Considering the Czech Republic as a small state, we approached the question from the perspective of status-seeking and observed the mechanisms of personnel support in selected IOs. We argue that the policy of promoting nationals in the ranks of prioritised IOs was intended to enhance the country’s international status and also formed part of domestic legitimation games.
