Kultura v období normalizace a její financování

In my bachelor thesis I search culture and its financing in the period of normalization, in the territory of then Czechoslovakia, period 1969--1989. The political development in the period of normalization was closely connected with culture movement and so the culture of normalization is very important for our history. At first, I deal with a general historical development and a common citizen life in our country in the searched historical period. I describe the scope of TV, above all TV series, a scope of common films and the quality of theatrical art, pop music and literature. Further on I deal with problems of communist propaganda in culture, censorship and prohibition of activities in a culture sphere. As one of conclusion of this state policy was creation of unofficial culture, predominately underground. In a part of culture financing I deal with Culture Department activity, concretely what part of state budget was devoted on culture sphere and what was an average monthly pay of an common culture employee. In the two representative years 1975 and 1985 I compare revenues produced in culture sphere and its expenditures. Another part of my bachelor thesis searches long-term expenditure plan of ČST (The Czechoslovak Television Broadcasting Company ) in 1969. Hypothesis that culture expenditures in the period of normalization were highly ineffective was veryfied/confirmed.
