  • Sport in the Uranium Mines of Communist Czechoslovakia: Between Active Support for the Leisure Time Activities of Workers and Efforts ‘From Below’

    Open Access•Oto Polouček, Anna Grůzová et al.•ARTICLE•The International Journal of the…•2026

    The official newspaper of the Dolní Rožínka Uranium Mines contains many articles about sport. Sport appeared to be a regular part of life at the mines and an important component of state-socialist enterprise welfare policy. At first glance, it seems to be not only a working environment, but also a sporting one. Deeper insight into how organized sport developed and the meanings attributed to it by the enterprise and the workers reveals that it was…

  • The policy of memory, commemoration, post-socialism? Remembering socialist modernisation in the Czech countryside

    Open Access•Oto Polouček•ARTICLE•Memory Studies•2025•References: 6

  • Sociální normy a socialistická morálka: Ochrana veřejného pořádku na československém venkově 80. let 20. století

    Open Access•Oto Polouček•ARTICLE•Český lid•2023•References: 2

    Studie se zabývá ochranou veřejného pořádku na venkově v poslední dekádě před pádem komunistické vlády v Československu roku 1989.

  • Continuities in the Period of “Revolutionary Changes” and the “Dusk of the Peasant Status” (Contribution to the Study of Rural Life in Socialist Czechoslovakia)

    Open Access•Oto Polouček•ARTICLE•Slovenský národopis•2020

    The narratives from the socialist period remarkably resemble the discussions after 1989 when it comes to the statement that the second half of the 20 th century brought discontinuities that changed the countryside, even though their evaluations are different: the “desired” progress promoted by the normalisation language had not admitted the listing of the negative impacts on the countryside and the environment which logically became the centre of…
