Course objectives
The seminar will be devoted to the functioning of the Czech churches in the diverse types of regimes: in the democratic system of the First Republic, in the time of German occupation, in the first phase of the Communist dictatorship and in the transitional periods of the Second and Third Republic.
At the end of the course students will be orientated not only in the history of the main Czech churches in the said periods, but also in the course of their mutual relations and in particular in the church political context of the times.
