| Description | the primary goal of my presentation is, first, a selective and brief commentary on some more or less well-known texts written by Czech authors that treat the concept of totalitarianism. You can find more information on these authors and their opinions in my text which would be published in conference materials. The main criterion of the choice of texts was how representative they are of certain typically Czech ways of thinking that are also related to the most frequently examined topics in discussions of totalitarianism: the dispute between primordialists and historicists, the intellectual reception of National Socialism and Communism, the proposed phases of totalitarian era, concretely the discussion about post-totalitarianism, and revisionist interpretations. |
