A large collection of autobiographical life story material available in oral-history data is used to examine how women and men of different socio-political groups (workers, intelligentsia, dissidents, and communist functionaries) narrate their lives in the time of state-socialist Czechoslovakia. Of particular interest is what these narratives imply for an understanding of the state-socialist gender order. The analysis combines quantitative (the frequency of word co-occurrences) and qualitative (a hermeneutic reading of text fragments) approaches. The results provide evidence that empirically supports what has previously been suggested in the literature: there was an interdependence of private and public spheres, with the family sphere differing in importance for women and men. Additionally, the discursive density and arrangement of these spheres in the life stories differs according to sociopolitical groups, and a third sphere, which we have labelled ‘politics’, emerges for some groups. The findings reveal insights into the relationship between the gender order and the life course through a narrative articulation of life stories of different social groups in Czech state-socialist society.

The article discusses the connection between the notions of the gender order in the family that was dominant in the last two decades of the People’s Republic of Poland and the acceptance of violence. It also presents the potential of two types of sources of studying domestic violence in the 20th century: court files and the popular press. Such sources enable us to focus our attention equally on the discourse of the era and on the individual experience of historical actors, which can be read by deciphering the narrative strategies they use as they search for self-reflection concerning the situation in which they found themselves and ways of dealing with violence.
