On New Paths: Czechoslovakia in 1945

Summary/Abstract: This study outlines the most relevant momentum of the process during which Czechoslovakia, re-established in 1945, breaking with the major fundaments of its pre-war policies, gradually became part of the Soviet sphere of influence. Although the final turning point came only in 1948, the process leading to it had, in the author’s view, already begun during the war and became irreversible from 1945. The author separately deals with the changes in the Czechoslovak foreign, domestic, and minority policy in 1945, while Czechoslovakia, in the author’s assessment, can no longer be considered between 1945 and 1948 as a democratic country, but a pretotalitarian state.
