Summary/Abstract: The Lenka Jungmannová’s contribution “The underground culture through prism of contact between political power and ideology” concerns non-official journalistic discussions on character of non-official Czech literature during the communistic period. The text at first references important controversy over conception and acceptance of underground culture in Czech countries (critic Václav Černý rejects it, theoretist Ivan Martin Jirous defends it), and than goes into the two phazes of theoretical reflection so-called second culture, what was implicated from this polemic and what is represented mainly Petr Fidelius’s, Rio Preisner’s, Jiří Gruša’s and Václav Havel’s opinions. In the end contribution demonstrates these theoretical texts also shows certain ideological taint which is done of conventional image about contact between rationalization and political power, how Michel Foucault describes in study The Subject and Power.
