The Power of the Individual and the Power of the System: A Response
Original language description
In response to other texts published in the special issue of the journal Cultural Analysis, the article deals with the issue of the relationship between research in ethnology and the political situation in totalitarian regimes of East-central Europe. On the example of the origin and development of the so-called Czechoslovak sociocultural anthropology in the 1960s, it is shown that the entire specialization of some disciplines (ethnology, anthropology) could have arisen at the direct initiative of the Communist Party or other state bodies and could serve ideological or economic interests of governing structures. In the case of Czechoslovak ethnology and anthropology, the involvement of scientists in espionage activities under the supervision of the State Security (Státní bezpečnost) or even the KGB is also highly probable.
