Presidential Succession and the Republican Party in the Czechoslovak First Republic: The Election of Edvard Beneš as Czechoslovak President in 1935

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Study of the election of Edvard Beneš to succeed Masaryk as President of Czechoslovakia completes detailed account of the political wheeling and dealing that led to Beneš succeeding his colleague and mentor in 1935. Study presents the results autor work of painstaking research into the political context of the 1935 Czechoslovak presidential elections. The degree of authority Masaryk enjoyed corresponded to the strength he had as president. Despite the limits the constitution placed on him, Masaryk took every opportunity to influence internal and foreign policy. Masaryk was elected president of the first Czechoslovak Republic four times. The study maps individual choices in the context of time (1918, 1920, 1927 and 1934). He closely follows the political situation in autumn 1935, when it was decided behind the scenes who will come after Masaryk. Many politicians sought to further curtail the next president&apos;s powers by electing either a nonpolitical figure or someone who had less political clout. That would exclude the candidacy of Masaryk&apos;s associate, Edvard Beneš (1884-1948), who long had served as Czechoslovakia&apos;s foreign minister. Masaryk, however, was determined to have Beneš succeed him, even if that meant staying in office longer than he had expected and well after his health had begun to deteriorate. In the end, Masaryk&apos;s resolve and Beneš&apos;s political adroitness managed to secure Beneš&apos;s election as president, despite the resistance of a large segment of the Republican party and politicians in other parties, all of whom either had personal misgivings about Beneš, disliked his politics, or felt that they could benefit more from a head of state who was more pliable and more accommodating than Beneš.resident
