    th n the fall of 1989, something happened that many never thought could happen: the IIron Curtain, the sphere of influence and control the Soviet Union maintained over many –29 of the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, was finally brought down. Nowhere was that process of liberation more dramatic than in rd Czechoslovakia. Responding to a brutal po- lice suppression of a peaceful protest march, millions of Czechs and Slovaks took to their 23 streets, the final proof (if any were still needed) that the “people’s government” represented The Kind Revolution little more than those who ran it. Within months, Václav Havel, a dissident ` playwright who had become the best-known symbol of resistance to the Soviet-backed re- gime, was elected president of a new, multi-par- ty democracy. Czechoslovakia, which would soon split into separate Czech and Slovak enti- ties, was once again free to carve out its own October path, make its own mistakes, and establish the role of a small nation in the middle of Europe and a rapidly globalizing world.

  • Ten Propositions About Munich 1938 on the Fateful Event of Czech and European History – Without Legends and National Stereotypes
    Ten Propositions about Munich 1938 On the Fateful Event of Czech and European History – without Legends and National Stereotypes Vít Smetana The Munich conference of 29–30 September 1938, followed by forced cession of border regions of Czechoslovakia to Nazi Germany and subsequently also to Poland and Hungary, is unquestionably one of the crucial milestones of Czech and Czecho- slovak history of the 20th century, but also an important moment in the history of global diplomacy, with long-term overlaps and echoes into international politics. In the Czech environment, round anniversaries of the dramatic events of 1938 repeatedly prompt emotional debates as to whether the nation should have put up armed resistance in the autumn of 1938. Such debates tend to be connected with strength comparisons of the Czechoslovak and German armies of the time, but also with considerations whether the “bent backbone of the nation” with all its impacts on the mental map of Europe and the Czech role in it was an acceptable price for saving an indeterminate number of human lives and preserving material assets and cultural and historical monuments and buildings all around the country. Last year’s 80th anniversary of the Munich Agreement was no exception. A change for the better was the attention that the media paid to the situation of post-Munich refugees from the border regions as well as to the fact that the Czechs rejected, immediately after Munich, humanist democracy and started building an authori- tarian state instead.1 The aim of this text is to deconstruct the most widespread 1 See, for example: ZÍDEK, Petr: Po Mnichovu začali Češi budovat diktaturu [The Czechs started building a dictatorship after Munich].

Journal of American Studies 19 (2018): 123-142 ISSN: 1896-9461, https://doi.org/10.12797/AdAmericam.19.2018.19.09 Kryštof Kozák Department of North American Studies Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8768-6428 Conflicted Cultural Memory and U.S. Foreign Policy: The “Lost Ca(u)se” of the U.S. Radar Base in the Czech Republic1 This article analyzes the developments in cultural memory in Czech-U.S. relations since the end of the Cold War with a special emphasis on the heated debate about placing a U.S. radar base on Czech soil in 2008. It first describes the abrupt transformation in cultural memory related to the transition from communist rule from the transatlantic per- spective. It claims that the debate about the radar base is a clear indication of the shift within cultural memory, which became much more contested, especially when compared with the previous period culminating with the Czech Republic’s entry into NATO. As cultural memory is closely linked to dominant historical narratives as well as identity, the findings have serious implications for the future of the transatlantic ties in the region. Key words: cultural memory, foreign policy, transatlantic ties, U.S.-Czech relations, radar base 1. Introduction This article analyzes the role of cultural memory in Czech-U.S. relations since the Velvet Revolution of 1989. It claims that while efforts to cultivate cultural memory helped to sustain good Czech-U.S. relations, a fresh impetus is needed if cultur- al memory is to remain one of the significant binding ties between the two coun- tries.
