Hare Krishna in the Czech Republic after Thirty Years: Success or Failure?
Original language description
The study tries to evaluate the development of the Hare Krishna Movement (ISKCON) in the Czech Republic. It points out that after a period of great openness and the emergence of non-traditional religious groups after the Velvet Revolution in 1989, the spread of this movement gradually stagnated. After a period of “anti-cult” attacks, the movement did become part of the standard religious scene, although its attractive- ness decreased. Based on two models (the model of religious success and the concept of religious memory), the study shows the limits to the wider success of the move- ment. However, given the widespread secularization and the prevailing “religious apathy” of Czech society, the Hare Krishna Movement’s impact in Czech society can be considered a limited success.
