The article deals with the reception of the thought of the main authors of the Frankfurt School in the Czech intellectual context. The author also attempts to respond to the question of why there was heightened interest, at a given time, in a certain author of the Frankfurt School, or in a certain work. In the thirties a group of young leftist historians who published the collection 'Dejiny a pritomnost' (History and the Present) discovered the Frankfurt School. In texts that were published by the Institute for Social Research they primarily sought inspiration for the methodology of historical science. In the view of these Czech historians, historical science should embody, in its basic methodological principles, socio-emancipatory thinking. In the sixties the interest of nondogmatic Czech Marxists centred above all on the work of Erich Fromm and Herbert Marcuse, in which it was possible to find helpful stimulus for the development of an anthropological problematic and thus to question the governing ideology which considered all the problems of man to be solved by the institution of a supposedly Socialist order. Interest in the work of Marcuse was further aided by the significant relations between his thinking and the theoretical concepts of the Czech inter-war avant-garde (especially surrealism), which was still very much alive in the thought of the Czech social and art studies (Robert Kalivoda, Vratislav Effenberger). The seventies then brought what was, generally speaking, only a crude ideological critique of the Frankfurt School as one of the sources of so-called Marxist revisionism of the sixties. The process of socio-political 'normalisation' required the suppression of all thinking which might cause subversion and thus might damage the re-instated Marxist-Leninist ideology and the new regime of occupation in general.

This article is concerned with the problem if, and to what extent, it is justified to use the category of utopia and anti-utopia with respect to the social theory of the Frankfurt School. The authoress argues that the objection frequently leveled against the Frankfurt School to the effect that it practiced utopian thought cannot be accepted as generally valid. Although the diagnosis of the current situation proposed by several thinkers of that orientation seemed to coincide in a high degree, their recommendations for the future and their predictions were conspicuously dissimilar. The terms of utopia and anti-utopia are therefore more useful as concepts that describe internal differences among members of that group, but less useful as general terms that describe them all. The article deals with some selected problems, and specifically with the accuracy of the following predictions: Horkheimer and Adorno's about 'the administered world', Marcuse's about 'acquiesced existence', and the compromise project of the 'sane society' championed by Fromm. The main thesis of the article is that the philosophers of the Frankfurt School had a fairly uniform position of the value of traditional utopian thought. They approved its audacity and the readiness to break beyond the horizons of the status quo, they were critical of its didactic overtones and simplifications.
