Senior Theses, Trinity College, Hartford, CT 2015. Trinity College Digital Repository, https://digitalrepository.trincoll.edu/theses/469 Events that led to the Czechoslovakian Prague Spring and its immediate aftermath Senior thesis towards Russian major Natalie Babjukova Spring 2015 ` The invasion of Czechoslovakia by the Soviet Union on August 21 st 1968 dramatically changed not only Czech domestic, as well as international politics, but also the lives of every single person in the country. It was an intrusion of the Soviet Union into Czechoslovakia that no one had expected. There were many events that led to the aggressive action of the Soviets that could be dated way back, events that preceded the Prague Spring. Even though it is a very recent topic, the Cold War made it hard for people outside the Soviet Union to understand what the regime was about and what exactly was wrong about it. Things that leaked out of the country were mostly positive and that is why the rest of the world did not feel the need to interfere. Even within the country, many incidents were explained using excuses and lies just so citizens would not want to revolt. Throughout the years of the communist regime people started realizing the lies they were being told, but even then they could not oppose it.

With the highest expectations for the style and content of the presentation, I have attempted to be as concise yet thorough as possible in the presentation and defense of the argument. The composition of this thesis entails nearly two years of diligent work outside of general course studies. It includes preliminary readings in Central and East European affairs, an extensive excursion throughout the Czech and Slovak republics with readings in the theory of political stability, the history and politics of Czecho­ slovakia, in addition to composing the text. My pursuit was driven by a passion for the topic, a quest for know­ ledge and understanding, and the argument's potential for continued development.

Travels Through History Past & Present in Prague and Central Bohemia By Martin Votruba While I was born and raised in Southern California, my parents migrated from, what was then, Czechoslovakia in the late 1960’s – when Communism control intensified and they felt threatened. They left behind family members in Prague, and in a couple smaller outlying towns, and relocated to Los Angeles, California. Growing up, we only spoke Czech at home; my parents reasoned that I would learn and practice plenty of English at school. I have always been proud of my family roots and I am grateful to retain some of the language and culture. In the early 1980s, while Czechoslovakia was still under communist control, my parents sent me there to visit some of the family they left behind. I spent about six weeks with aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents in and around Prague.

  • Resilience in an Urban Social Space: a Case Study of Wenceslas Square
    Resilience in an Urban Social Space: A Case Study of Wenceslas Square THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Landscape Architecture in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Cynthia E. Anderson, B.S., M.B.A. Graduate Program in Landscape Architecture The Ohio State University 2011 Master's Examination Committee: Assistant Professor Katherine Bennett, Advisor Associate Professor Jane Amidon Assistant Professor Jesus Lara Assistant Professor Charisma Acey Copyright by Cynthia E. Anderson 2011 Abstract Eastern Europe experienced a significant disruption of economic and political systems as communism collapsed in late 1989. This thesis examines how these rapid political and economic changes were manifested socially in public places, in their use, meaning and perception, and how these changes encourage or diminish resilience in an urban social space. The thesis also addresses an issue made particularly salient during the economic and political disruption seen globally since 2008: how design can influence the resilience of a social space. The subject of this case study is Wenceslas Square in Prague, Czech Republic, a space in the center of the city with an important history and meaning for the nation. It is also a place where the rapid inflow of Western capital can be clearly observed, and the effect of this flow on people, economics and bio-environment can be documented. The changing relationships in the square are examined within the context of the political and economic events that produced these new spaces. The thesis focuses on the social changes that have occurred, while recognizing related economic and environmental changes in the square.
