Even though the Cold War did not spill over into a real armed confrontation, some features of its development as well as consequences, felt up to now, can be compared with “real” war conflicts. Ethnologists in a number of European countries pay attention to the Cold War, for example through the research on collectiveand individual memory bound to the course of the War; they study the life of local communities strongly affected by the War; they explore the narrativity relating to the Cold War; also approaches in terms of anthropologyof landscape are very strong. The Cold War was not understood as a relevant ethnological theme in the CzechRepublic after 1989, and for this reason, the research on it has been “governed” either by different enthusiastic, semi-amateur or directly activistic fellowships, or the research itself has developedunder the wings of other disciplines (especially archaeology and history). The theoretical-methodological contribution introduces possible bases for the ethnological research into the Cold War in the Czech Republic, draws attention to the running researches and mainly sketches the basic thematic circles the future research could deal with.
