Czesi we Wrocławiu podczas Euro 2012. Przyczynek do analizy polsko-czeskich relacji społecznych
Czechs in Wrocław during Euro 2012. A contribution to the analysis of the Polish-Czech social relations

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyse the Polish-Czech relations on a social platform, seen through the prism of the football event—Euro 2012. The text opens with a glance at a broader context of these relations generated by mutual stereotypes and the media coverage of certain peculiarities of both national cultures. Then it goes on to giving quite detailed a record of the atmosphere created by the Polish and Czechs fans during the tournament, which was written into the conception of pop nationalism. The whole picture is enriched with an attempt to refer the situation observed in Wrocław to the attitudes Poles generally have to Czechs, expressed by means of statistical data as well as features of character traditionally ascribed to this nation in Poland.
