Regional Identity under Pressure from the Centres. Silesians during World War II, the Clash of Loyalties and Marginalization of Regional Specifics in the Post-War Creation of National Narratives

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

By the example of Upper Silesia, a clash between center-conceived collective identities and regional identities can particularly be illustrated. During World War II, local men were called to the German army, but many defected or fell into captivity, and subsequently joined the Polish and Czechoslovak exile armies. Their value and importance, however, were completely marginalized after the war in the effort not to disturb the strenuously built image of a „fighting nation”, according to which the archetype of the resistance movement were supposed to be ethnic Czechs (respectively Poles), who fled abroad for patriotic reasons. It was only after 1989 when the region's own specific reflection of its war experience slowly emerged. In this reflection, service in three different armies on both sides of the front is seen as its natural and unproblematic part, in sharp contrast to the perception of the war from the centers.
