Abstract

If there was a real Court of History and the possibility of prosecuting it, it would have two main points in the case of the Communist Party (M): 1) The disintegration of Czech (Czechoslovak) society with the use of its war distress and post-war disorientation - moreover in cooperation with a foreign power (USSR) - and the introduction of a dictatorship, the first period of which had the character of undisguised terror. 2) Suppression of the timid but spontaneous attempt of this society to break free from that grip (1968) and the establishment - again in cooperation with a foreign power - of a dictatorship, which, unlike the former, was not a bloody terror, but a dictatorship.
