Civil-Military Relations in the Season of Military Populism
The influx of populism in Europe revived the values of illiberal, authoritarian government. This affects the democratic character of Civil-Military Relations (CMR) in the post-communist countries in particular. We analyzed the development of CMR in Czechia (1992-2022) under the influence of populism (2010-2022). Applying the CMR concept of the shared-democratic-values-perspective, our study provides empirical evidence that persistent shortcomings…

Corruption - Deviant Behaviour or Social Disorganisation
Corruption is not only deviant behaviour, it is a complex social phenomenon which works as a system with its own rules and development mechanisms. Together with Durkheim we can say that it is a supra-individual, collective phenomenon which is able to put pressure on individuals. Corrupt transactions are regulated by corrupt norms and these norms are in conflict with the official normative system. Faults and breakdowns of the official normative sy…
