Abstracts

EN

The article, as a combined theoretical-empirical undertaking, examines the ways collective memory is conceptualized in thematic areas of current theoretical thinking and how these theoretically designated and specified areas are reflected in the consciousness and memories of the common population. In particular it focuses on the popular memory and experience of history since the end of Second World War and the Communist takeover. In the first part, the long-term established theoretical approaches in view of collective memory research are presented. In the second, more empirically focused, part manifestations and expressions of these conceptualizations are registered in common acts and talk in the course of realized focus groups.
