Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this work is to introduce to the reader the people whose lives have only been of marginal interest to modern historiographers. It portrays how the people living on the edge of society construct their personal stories. The narrators are people who were older than 18 years in 1989 and who personally experienced homelessness after the Velvet Revolution. Homelessness is explored as a public phenomenon appearing alongside the transformation of the Czech Republic. The research is based primarily on the oral history method with people who are currently homeless.
