The long formation of victimhood: Communist repression, memory, and recognition in Germany and the Czech Republic
This article investigates the construction of victimhood of victims of communist repression of the 1950s in Germany and Czechoslovakia. It traces this process from imprisonment, through pre-1989 articulations of victim status, to its reconfiguration in the two decades after 1989. Drawing on the concepts of victimhood, self-categorization and social polarization, the article argues that suffering is not an immutable outcome of historical events, b…

This article focuses on the replacement of prison staff in Czechoslovakia and East Germany, later the German Democratic Republic after 1945. The main focus is on the question of how the replacement of prison staff took place, what strategies Czechoslovakia and East Germany used to accomplish this task, and the extent to which local conditions and the overall evolution of the prison systems of the two countries played a role in the process. The ot…
Narratives of Czechoslovak Prison Staff from the Communist Era
The Czechoslovak prison system is closely bound up with the political situation, and period before the year 1989 was no exception. Its transformation reflects changes in society and politics. The role of the prison system, attitudes to prisoners, as well as modernising trends are all a reflection of the dominant master narratives of that time. This study examines how university-educated employees who were in expert positions within the prison sys…
