• Languages of publication: CS

Abstracts

EN

The presented case study focuses on a reenactment of the ČSLA in the acting perspective of the current young generation. The author first presents a real military reenactment as a specific subject of anthropological research and then addresses the basic categories (material and interactional credibility), on the basis of which the degree of historical authenticity is assessed in reenactment studies. The main focus is on the analysis and interpretation of semi-structured interviews with members of an unnamed military history club dealing with the reenactment of a specific military unit during the Cold War period (1960s–1980s).
