In the volume Stasis. Civil War as a Political Paradigm, the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben advances the thesis that ademia – the absence of a people (a-demos) – is a constitutive element of the modern state. When confronted with the fact that modern political and juridical thought elevated the people to the role of the sole chief constituent agent and the ultimate source of the legitimacy of constituted orders, this thesis turns out to be rather problematic. In this work, I will explore Agamben’s notion of ademia, retracing the main lines of its theoretical development and reconsidering it in relation to different interpretations of the idea of the people. Most notably, I will demonstrate how Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Carl Schmitt in challenging the conundrums that the idea of the people inevitably entails ended up in revealing the ultimate absence of the people in the political space of the constituted order of the state. In doing so, I will try to show how Agamben’s notion of ademia is helpful is grasping some of the main paradoxes and conundrums underpinning the meaning and the uses of the idea of the people in legal and political thought.

Praga i jej wybitni myśliciele (naukowcy, odkrywcy i wynalazcy) wniosła swój niepozorny, lecz godny uwagi wkład nie tylko do czeskiej, ale i do światowej nauki, dziedzictwa cywilizacyjnego i kulturowego, które wywarły swój wpływ na stan XX-wiecznej nauki i współczesnej wiedzy w Europie. To nie tylko badacze i naukowcy, ale także zasłużone uczelnie i instytucje życia naukowego oraz cenne czeskie, europejskie i światowe inicjatywy intelektualne (kongresy, konferencje, szkoły teoretyczne) i wydawnicze (encyklopedie, leksykony). Niniejszy artykuł przybliży je w uporządkowany sposób (chronologicznie), obejmując swą cezurą czasową głównie wiek XIX i pierwszą połowę wieku XX, gdyż te czeskie i czechosłowackie osiągnięcia stały się przyczynkiem do współczesnych sukcesów oraz stanu czeskiej nauki i myśli wynalazczej.

Prague and its ‘prominent sages’ made an in conspicuous yet in valuable contribution to the Czech and global science, cultural and civilizational heritage, which exerted a considerable impact on the state of the 20th century science and contemporary knowledge in Europe. It is not only the merit of its researchers and scientists, but also of its distinguished universities, institutions of scientific life, and valuable Czech, European and worldwide intellectual initiatives (congresses, conferences, theoretical schools) or publishing projects (encyclopaedias, lexicons). This paper presents them in an orderly manner (chronologically), encompassing mainly the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century, as these Czech and Czechoslovakian achievements gaverise to the modern success and affected the condition of the Czech science and inventive thought.
