Statelessness and Social Citizenship of Greek Civil War Refugees in Post-1948 Communist Czechoslovakia
Original language description
Using the case of refugees from the Greek Civil War (1946–1949) in post-1948 communist Czechoslovakia, this chapter investigates how state socialism challenged legal citizenship as the cornerstone of Czechoslovak society, previously based mainly on an ethnonational principle. The socialist state shifted its focus on social rights and granted equal access to them based on work integration, enforced by the right and the duty to work. Their commitment to labor and involvement in the building of the new socialist society became the main pillars of social participation, whereas the political rights of citizens were curbed substantially by the illiberal conditions of the postwar authoritarian regime. Benefiting from social rights to the same degree as Czechoslovak citizens, the predominantly stateless Greek Civil War refugees succeeded in using their legal status as a resource.
