About FATIGUE Following the collapse of state socialism, the liberalisation of public life, democratisation of politics, abolition of state-run economies and the introduction of markets commenced in the states of the former Soviet bloc. These necessary yet socially costly transformations never ran smoothly and in the same direction in all the post-communist states but by the mid-2000s the most successful countries, clustered in Central Europe and the Baltic, seemed to have managed to consolidate liberal democracy. Then something snapped. The political trajectory veered off in new directions as populist parties started gaining more support.

  • Cultural Exchange at Charles University in Prague
    Cultural Exchange at Charles University in Prague Cultural Exchange at Charles University in Prague The 25th of April marked the third annual Cultural Exchange event hosted by the Catholic Theological Faculty of Charles University. The event, a student conference officially called “ Cultural Transfer. Art Exchange between Italy and Central Europe ”, was held at the main faculty building and saw a series of lectures given by post-graduates from various European universities. The lectures aimed to discuss the ways in which Italian art has, and continues, to influence European art, especially that of Central European countries. I was fortunate enough to speak with two of the organisers, Marie Opatrná and Magdalena Nová, who discussed how important it was for the students to have a chance to show case their research. They were also excited because although it was the third conference it was the first international event on this topic the faculty has held. Most of the students presenting lectures were from Charles University, but there was a mix of nationalities. From native Czech students to those who had come to Charles University from as far as Italy. There were also many other universities taking part who had sent students including University of Tor Vergata in Rome, University of Leipzig, University of Vienna, Masaryk University in Brno, Palacký University in Olomouc, University of Hradec Králové, University of Warsaw, University of Gdansk, University of Wroclaw, and Jagiellonian University in Cracow. The lectures were divided into four themes (Middle Ages, Renaissance, Baroque, and Modern Art) which each had their own room. Each room had its own timetable of lectures which were delivered in the preferred language of the candidate, most being in Czech or English with a few excepts given in German or Italian.
