abstract
Professor JUDr. Jaroslav Krejčí, the director of Center for Research of Social and Cultural Plurality in the Institute of Philosophy of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, presented his contribution “Ethnic Stumbling Blocks in Czechoslovakia and Their Tortuous Solutions”. In the beginning he states that in the 19th century the process of a shift of loyality bond of social and cultural appurtenance was completed, i.e. the shift from appurtenance to church and religion to appurtenance to language and nation. Czechoslovakia was born in 1918 as a multi-national state without a significant prevalence of one majority nation. Even the possible unified. Czechoslovak nation constituted in 1921 only 65,3% of the total population of the state. Then Prof. Krejčí deals with three stages of development of relationships between Czechs and Slovaks in the period of the First Republic (1918–1921: Germans principally refuse Czech taking power, 1923 – beginning of the thirties: approaching and collaboration, thirties: German contribution to breaking Czechoslovakia). He does not forget the situation and destiny of Czechoslovak Jews to the tragic end. The following part of his contribution dedicates Prof. Krejčí to the stages of development of relationships between Czechs and Slovaks from the Pittsburgh agreement to the end of a common state in the beginning of the nineties.
