Proměny národních a politických identit v české společnosti

Work slew matter of national self- identification of Czech society, especially after how history is important today, and how contouring identity uses history and collective memory. In this work we set three basic hypotheses. The first hypothesis is based on the assumption that a national holiday is the most important day for the glorification of national identity, these days relate to the symbolism of the event, or to actions of individuals (or groups) that have had significant impact to the nation in terms of shaping the collective identity the most. The second hypothesis is that while the perception of the significance of the specific personalities and events will be positively correlated with the significance of public holidays. The third hypothesis to be tested taking over from Ladislav Holy, which interprets the Czech national identity in terms of primordialistic characteristics. The research method will be an original survey, which will be included in the empirical section. Interview with the name of Czech national identity is based on the study of the same name made in 1995 and 2003 Centre International Social Survey Programme (ISSP). My research investigation was attended by 457 respondents.
