The article deals with the creation and functioning of the department “Economy and Finance” of the Reich Protector’s Office as a body playing the dominant role in the process of formation of the economic policy in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia in 1939–1942, and sheds light on its penetration into the autonomous occupation administration that took place as part of Heydrich’s reform of public administration. The focus of attention is on the status of the Economic Department of the Reich Protector’s office on the boundary between the Reich German administration and the Protectorate administration, its organisational and personnel structure, competences, and financing mechanism.

The paper examines some aspects of the legal framework of business in the Bohemian Lands during the Nazi Occupation. It focuses on changes in the legal regulation of joint-stock companies in annexed borderlands and in the later Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia and evaluates their consequences from the perspective of their own functioning and also in the wider context of the advancement of the occupier’s interests in the Bohemian and Moravian economy. The paper describes analogies and discrepancies between Czechoslovak and German stock law at the time of the constitutional changes in the autumn of 1938. It focuses on the regulations modifying the stereotypes inherent in the functioning of joint-stock companies and playing its role in the context of planned ownership changes. Included in the paper are regulations governing internal affairs in enterprises, i. e. administration and management of joint-stock companies (structure of the statutory bodies, competencies, and approval mechanisms), regulations affecting external company representation and regulations governing stock trading.

The paper deals with the development of the Institute of Economic and Social History, Faculty of Arts, Charles University in Prague, in the first 25 years of its activity (1993–2018). Against the background of the scientific profiling of the institute towards the modern and contemporary economic and social history of the Czech lands and Central Europe and profiling of its pedagogical activities, the paper offers an insight into the process of institutionalization of economic and social history as a distinct discipline within the Czech historical science after 1989. Due to many research projects, first-rate PhD. program, as well as the ability to integrate researchers from other institutions in Czech Republic and abroad, the institute contributes to understanding of the economic and social processes of modern times.

Subsequent to the 1989 revolution, the scope of historical research expanded such that researchers’ focus was transferred to topics which had been of peripheral concern in previous decades because they were ideologically unsuitable. A natural departure from the preferred history of the workers movement towards research of social elites took place, a trend that was marked in Czech historiography for at least two decades. The study of modern businesses and entrepreneurship was no different, with a consistent rise seen in the study of this field of research from the early 1990s. As in many other fields of historical investigation, domestic research had to confront the thorough methodology and rich ideas of modern business history, which has been a fully established research field for many decades. Looking back retrospectively, despite all its limits, research in this historiographical segment had many years of tradition and current research builds on this tradition. There are now an almost inexhaustible number of studies on various issues related to the development of industrial production in the Czech lands during the industrialisation period. Over the past few decades, it has mainly been studied on individual entrepreneurs or entrepreneurial families which have been published on the history of entrepreneurs. There are significantly fewer papers on entrepreneurial groups defined by sector or region, and we have only vague notions of entrepreneurship as a social group.
