After February 1948, the Communist Party of Slovakia (CPS) began to change from a party struggling for power into a party that had taken power and was beginning to apply it. There was mass recruitment of members already by the end of February 1948, and this process further intensified in the following months. Tens of thousands of people joined the CPS, some of them motivated by profit-seeking or fear of possible persecution. The party apparatus grew and gradually took over real power, so that the state organs became secondary. Mass recruitment also brought many negative features and after a few months, it became a subject of criticism, especially from the Soviet side. Therefore, by the beginning of summer, mass recruitment stopped and the policy of the regime gradually changed as a result of international political factors. The dissatisfaction of part of the domestic population from summer 1948 also contributed to the introduction of sharp persecution of real or potential opponents of the Communist Party. The official merging of the Communist Party of Slovakia and the Czech Communist Party was prepared within the ruling party in this period and carried out in autumn 1948. The CPS ceased to exist as an independent party. The same period brought the introduction of various laws that later became symbols of the crimes of the communist regime.

This article is a case study of a regional level government administration unit. Its objective is to show that mistakes in the applied personnel policy of the analyzed office may contribute to a drop in employee motivation to work as well as in employee project involvement. Thus, existing HRM policies foster the unfavorable attitude of unit officers, reinforcing the negative stereotype of the public administration employee. The article begins with a description of the influence of intangible aspects, such as changes on the national and regional political scene, on human resource management in government administration. The next part of the case study presents an analysis of HRM fields such as recruitment, remuneration, assessment, training, and development. The study was conducted on the basis of both internal office information and legal acts governing the civil service. The article ends with a summary containing conclusions and recommendations that might be useful in rebuilding the image of government administration employees.

Based on empirical research, the paper summarizes the social and institutional characteristics of the birth and reproduction of the Hungarian nomenklatura system. The research included the reconstruction of the decision making system and the documents of recruitment. Moreover, interviews were conducted with several top officials of the Hungarian Socialist Workers Party. The paper argues that although there was a chance to form a new elite after World War II, it did not happen because of the infiltration of the Communist Party into the repressive organizations. The take-over of power led to the formation of a nomenklatura. The paper overviews the impact of the nomenklatura-system on the workings of central institutions, the academic world and civil organizations. It investigates the documents dealing with the composition of the nomenklatura and the privileges of its members.

The purpose of this research is to test the lack of fit model (Heilman, 1983) for managerial and non-managerial jobs and to confront stereotypic variables and normative attributions of applicants. In this experiment, 32 recruiters evaluated eight resume-data sheets of applicants that varied in a 2x2x2x2 design with four within-subject variables (gender x attractiveness x internality/externality x managerial/non-managerial jobs). Subjects had to rate the suitability for hire, to estimate the salary, to rank the applicants and to evaluate the importance of the given pieces of information on their decisions. Results on ratings show significant main effects of the four within-subject variables and significant interactions. Ranks clearly show the sex bias and the internality norm effect for the two jobs.

The thesis deals with selected factors that were influencing the development of employees ́ number of Eastern Slovakia Steel factory. The company, today under the name United States Steel Corporation, is situated in Košice, the second largest city of Slovakia, with more than 240,000 citizens. However, during the 1950s the city had approximately 60,000 citizens only, but the census of 1980 recorded in excess 200,000 citizens. The years from 1948 to 1989 are characterized by the strong influence of totalitarian regime and government interference in both economic as well as social life of citizens. Above all the interests of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics had to be respected, which was reflected also in the type of industrialization and its focus on the Cold War development. In the Czechoslovak Republic the idea of increased industrialization was enforced on the territory of today’s Slovakia. One of the plans was the industrialization of population-rich, but economically declining eastern Slovakia. Košice represented a strategic centre of the eastern part of the republic, in which the construction of industrial enterprises was supposed to be carried out and which impacted on the population. The construction of Eastern Slovakia Steel factory started in 1960. The factory was supposed to provide the biggest number of job opportunities not only in the Košice city, but also in the nearby districts, which led to migration of the population. Therefore, this thesis focuses on depiction of the relation between industrialization and the physical movement of people. There are two types of recruitment actions and activities for gaining workers described in this article. Through numerical data recorded in charts and graphs the rate of recruitment percentage together with explanation of causes stated in reports is highlighted. Additionally, propaganda activities which played a significant role in appealing to public are also depicted. The articles in newspapers and company brochures were supposed to be in favour of gaining persons into employment for metallurgical factory. The article offers opportunities for better understanding of the mutual relation and influence between political system, industrialization and the society. Here, the intention was the systematization of statistical data that may represent resource for further research in the field of development of Košice, the growth of the population and the total transformation of the city.
