Vyhnána ze země jako bezdětná bezdomovkyně. Rozhovor s psycholožkou a někdejší disidentkou Ivankou Lefeuvre
Driven out of the country as a childless homeless woman. Interview with psychologist and former dissident Ivanka Lefeuvre

Summary/Abstract: The interview with Ivanka Lefeuvre, conceived as a double portrait of dissidents (together with Petruška Šustrová), shows that despite many common generational and political experiences (August 1968 occupation, imprisonment, involvement in Charter 77 and VONS, etc.), there were differences between activists, especially in the reflection on the position of women in society, female identity, or feminist issues. The Czech-French psychologist describes her experience of the August 1968 occupation and the bloody demonstration in Brno in 1969, conditions in the pre-trial detention facility in Brno-Bohunice, including the relationship she established with the Swedish pilot Karl-Göran Wickenbergh. Repression by the communist regime, as part of the "Asanace" operation, resulted in the emigration of the entire family from Czechoslovakia. The interview also reflects on significant thinkers such as Olympe de Gouges and Simone de Beauvoir, and documents the forgetfulness of contemporary society – including the dissent – regarding some significant women, including Milada Horáková.
