Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Years of the Czechoslovak Republic: A Survey of Its Progress and Achievements A couple of centuries passed, and it seemed as if the Czechs had been finally absorbed and lost their nationality. Indeed, they were look ed upon as non-existent, for the Czech language, customs and traditions were maintained only by peasants, and the enemies of the Czechs rejoiced, believing the Czech nation to be dead. In this, however, they were mis taken. The French ideas of liberty, equality and fraternity awakened fresh hopes in the hearts of the down-trodden Czech peasants, and the nine teenth century saw the rebirth of the Czechoslovak nation. This remark able revival on the part of the Czechs was at first purely literary, and it was not until the forties that it became political. But as soon as the revived Czech national movement assumed a political character it was directed against the German and Magyar domination. Czech leaders, from Havlicek and Palacky to Krama'r and Masaryk, all strove to reform Austria on a federal basis of justice to all the peoples inhabitating the Habsburg Empire. But it was in vain. The Habsburgs and their satellites wanted Austria to remain a German State. When the Great War broke out, the Czechoslovaks realised their chance of achieving their long-cherished hope of liberation from the Habsburg rule to which they had been subjected for three hundred years. Their position was truly tragic. Conscripted in the austro-hungarian Army, the Czechoslovak soldiers had to fight against their brother Slavs, the Russians and Serbians, for a cause which they detested from thebottom of their hearts. The Czechoslovaks revolted. Their leaders refused to make any declaration of loyalty to either Austria or Hungary, and were imprisoned and even sentenced to death. The Czechoslovak soldiers refused to march, and surrendered whenever Opportunity offered itself. The formation of the Czechoslovak army in Russia and its successes is the most interesting chapter in the Czechoslovak movement for independence. This army showed its valour during Kerensky's offensive in July, 1917, in which it was only the Czechoslovaks who really fought. At the battle of Zborov they took over prisoners and a large quantity of ma terial. General Brusiloff himself could not conceal his admiration of their achievement when he said in his official communique that the Czecho slovaks fought in such a way that the world ought to fall on its knees before them. Further military successes of the Czechoslovaks, by which they rendered such valuable service to the Allied cause did not remain -without deep appreciation from the Allies. Mr. Lloyd George in a tele gram to President Masaryk on September 12, 1918, declared that the story of the adventures and triumphs of this small army was indeed one of the greatest epics, of history. It has filled us all, Mr. Lloyd George for the courage, persistence and self-control; oft ypur countrymenf'and shows what can be done to triumph over time, lacko'of '1'naterial resources by those holding the spirit of freedom in their hearts. Your nation has rendered inestimable service to Russia and to the Allies in their struggle to free the world from despotism. We shall never forget it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book focuses on the description and analysis of the historical formation of the Czechoslovak and Czech positions in the international system during the course of the 20th century. The first part of the book presents a brief outline of the history of Czechoslovak foreign policy between the First World War and the end of the Cold War. The authors focus on the key periods and turning points in the role of the small Central European state in the international system as well as on the significant actors formulating Czechoslovak foreign policy from the inside and influencing it from the outside. The second, analytical part of the book focuses on the key issues connected to the change of the position of Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic after 1993 in world politics, and on the formulation of Czech foreign policy priorities and strategies in the globalized world after the end of bipolar confrontation. The authors analytically investigate the activities of the Czech Republic in (Central) European regional integration processes and the integration of the state in the global system of development cooperation. A great deal of attention is paid to the key political actors of the Czech foreign policy discussion and their impact on the formulation of foreign policy goals. Special attention is paid to the dilemmas of Czech foreign policy: the hesitation between the role of a small state and a medium power and also the span of Czech foreign policy between Atlanticism, anti-Americanism and Europeanization.

Book excerpt: A sweeping yet intimate narrative about the last hundred years of turbulent European history, as seen through one of Mitteleuropa’s greatest houses—and the lives of its occupants When Norman Eisen moved into the US ambassador’s residence in Prague, returning to the land his mother had fled after the Holocaust, he was startled to discover swastikas hidden beneath the furniture in his new home. These symbols of Nazi Germany were remnants of the residence’s forgotten history, and evidence that we never live far from the past. From that discovery unspooled the twisting, captivating tale of four of the remarkable people who had called this palace home. Their story is Europe’s, and The Last Palace chronicles the upheavals that transformed the continent over the past century. There was the optimistic Jewish financial baron, Otto Petschek, who built the palace after World War I as a statement of his faith in democracy, only to have that faith shattered; Rudolf Toussaint, the cultured, compromised German general who occupied the palace during World War II, ultimately putting his life at risk to save the house and Prague itself from destruction; Laurence Steinhardt, the first postwar US ambassador whose quixotic struggle to keep the palace out of Communist hands was paired with his pitched efforts to rescue the country from Soviet domination; and Shirley Temple Black, an eyewitness to the crushing of the 1968 Prague Spring by Soviet tanks, who determined to return to Prague and help end totalitarianism—and did just that as US ambassador in 1989. Weaving in the life of Eisen’s own mother to demonstrate how those without power and privilege moved through history, The Last Palace tells the dramatic and surprisingly cyclical tale of the triumph of liberal democracy.

Download or read book The Czech Republic written by Rick Fawn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-08-02 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Czechoslovakia has captured the nation's imagination throughout the twentieth century. The Allied betrayal of the country to Nazi Germany in 1938 was to demonstrate the appalling consequences of naive appeasement of aggression. The wholesale reform of Soviet communism in the Prague Spring of 1968 won western support, and sympathy when it was crushed by Warsaw Pact tanks. The fierce communist regime thereafter was brought down almost magically in 1989. Czechoslovakia added to the international political vocabulary the term, 'Velvet Revolution', and the velvet metaphor has characterised much of the country's path-breaking postcommunist transformation and its peaceful break-up in 1993. In separate chapters on history, politics, economics, foreign relations and the new Czech identity, this book not only applauds the successes of the Czech Republic since 1993, but also uncovers the frayed edges of the velvet nation.
