Název v původním jazyce

Culture Houses in Czechoslovakia

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Hundreds of culture houses were built after World War II in Czechoslovakia. Rooted in the 19 th -century modernist belief in the power of culture to educate and to “enlighten” people ́s minds, institutions dealing with the educational potential of leisure time activities were supported by the newly-established Czechoslovakian state after 1918. The post-war socialist state’s intention to educate and ‘enlighten’ both culturally and politically, as well as to strengthen local communities through leisure time activities, resulted in the development of a specific typology. The dichotomy of culture and ‘enlightenment’ was reflected in the designation of these buildings as culture houses or houses of enlightenment, as well as in the development of prescribed typologies of these houses, researched by state institutions and codified by state norms. In the mid 1960’s, spaces in culture houses devoted to ‘enlightenment’ began being replaced by ‘clubs’, reflecting the transition of Czechoslovakian society in the post-Stalinist era. Nowadays, many of these buildings are losing their function and appearance due to the post-socialist transformation after 1989.
