Summary/Abstract: The study analyzes the development of the exiled organization of the Social Democrats from Czechoslovakia in the years 1948-1995. It shows its anticommunist background, which has remained within the organization throughout its existence, which has in fact made it an organization of former political prisoners, academics and artists who did not intervene in practical politics even after the turn of 1989 and held the role of guardians of traditions and values.
