Abstracts

EN

The study is devoted to mapping the circumstances and course of the congress of the Union of Slovak Journalists, which represented a significant impulse for the promotion of reformist views in the spring of 1963. It was especially concerned with demands for the consistent rehabilitation of the 'bourgeois nationalists', changes to the censorship and publication policy and acceptance of Slovak specifics. The author also attempts to capture the reactions of the apparatus of A. Novotny and A. Dubcek, for whom the congress of journalists represented a violation of binding party resolutions, the official line of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia and the principles of democratic centralism. In the conclusion, he devotes attention to the responses to the conference among the Czech and Slovak communist intelligentsia.
