Summary/Abstract: The socialist period, that is, the history of the second half of the 20th century represents a time of the accelerated social development, a time of innovations, and a time of a break with the past and its culture. During the period of socialist development, government structures tended to move away from traditional heritage and reshape the social reality. Social processes-above all, modernization, industrialization, urbanization, women`s emancipation, mass media, and everyday life changes, can be considered the base of the socialist development, that is the socialist narratives that changed society as a whole as well as almost every individual. Socialism and its narratives significantly influenced the way the community changed in the spirit of the socialist ideas which, consequently, caused the traditional communities’ identity change. The way in which socialist narratives influenced the change of traditional culture is the subject of this research.
