Abstract

Political events in the Czech Lands (Bohemia and Moravia, the bigger part of former Czechoslovakia, now the Czech Republic) are analyzed from the point of view of morals and values as they relate to adaptability and social pathology. The background and events considered are: the territorial and historical heritage, the democratic legacy of 1918–1938, the Munich Agreement, the fascist and communist totalitarianism, the Velvet Revolution of 1989. Special attention is paid to the period of transition to democracy (restoration of values, hypothetical “excessive” humanism, coming to terms with Communism and Czecho-Slovak coexistence, ethics and economics). References are made to psychological phenomena applicable in the political context.
