Based on available sources and literature, this paper seeks to describe the relatively little-known process of separating the area of the newly-established Czechoslovak Republic from the Austrian-Hungarian currency, which tended towards inflation in 1918. The Finance Minister Alois Rašín flawlessly secured a financial operation which placed the Czechoslovak currency on a solid foundation.

Beside Antonín Švehla, it was - without question - Alois Rašín, who influenced the process of the coup the most. His vision of the coup was not dull, simple or technological; it was a perfectly prepared and managed action, which was also to be enjoyed by its participants. In the centre of Rašín's thoughts were the preparations of the law drafts (also called The Founding Law of the State and above all The First Law), which should have given a legal framework to the new state. A coup that did not get out of hand and which was, once completed, immediately sealed by a law was his ideal but attainable vision. Rašín was probably the only one who tried to prepare such a law. No other proposal is known. All of this attests to his capabilities as statesman and his ability to act.

Alois Rašín (1867-1923) was a Czech and Czechoslovak politician, economist, one of the founders of Czechoslovakia and its first finance minister. Alois Rašín is also the author of the first Czechoslovak law and the creator of the national currency, i.e. the Czechoslovak koruna. Rašín was a representative of conservative liberalism. The paper presents a review of Alois Rašín's concepts, views as the Minister of Finance of Czechoslovakia. Particular attention was paid to his efforts to regulate the currency and monetary system of Czechoslovakia, and to fight galloping inflation (hyperinflation). Rašín supported the free competition, believed in an entrepreneurial society, and believed that the state should strive to maintain a balanced budget.

The author tackles the perspective of direct participants in the context of the "argument over credits", structuring the political discourse of interwar Czechoslovakia. The paper then concludes with an overview - how was the topic of the 28th of October presented in Czech historiography after 1989.

The current paper aims at exploring the political and journalistic activities of František Sís during the First World War. In this study I focus on several issues. First, I will sketch, in brief, the cooperation between František Sís and his younger brother Vladimir Sís at the beginning of WWI. Secondly, I am going to explore the role of F. Sís in the establishing of the politico-intellectual circle and journal Národ (Nation). Needless to say, my intention is to demonstrate, through analysis of F. Sís’ publications in this journal that these served as an “intellectual weapon” against the so-called “activist” politicians, grouped around the Czech Alliance and National Committee. Further, I will concentrate on investigating the role of F. Sís in forming the new political party, Czech Constitutional Law Democracy in 1917–1918. Then, I will tackle the issue of political cooperation between the so-called Kramář circle on the one side, and other Slav nations, such as the Poles and Yugoslavs, on the other, in 1918. Last but not least, I will explore František Sís’ concept of postwar Czechoslovakia and his vision of Slav solidarity.
