„Jak dál?“ – Diferenciace československých exilových médií po srpnu 1968 jako výraz proměny exilové veřejné sféry
What Shall We Do Now? – The Differentiation of Czechoslovak Exile Media after the August 1968 as an Expression of Transformation of the Exile Public Sphere

Summary/Abstract: Based on the example of a new differentiation of Czechoslovak exile media after the August 1968 the study tries to point out their irreplacable role as the main means of communication and intermediary that helped to revive, redefine and subsequently develop the exile public sphere in the West in this period. The massive wave of Czechoslovak refugees who after the August 1968 engaged themselves in exile activities changed the situation with a number of consequences. The article gives an evidence of the importance of the 1968 group in their publishing activities that were substantial for further development of the exile. It also describes the reaction of the prominent media of the 1948 exiles on the new situation but it mostly concentrates on a publication activity in the after 1968 period. Among the generally oriented titles the article distinguishes two basic lines: informative bulletins and journals (e.g. Zpravodaj Čechů a Slováků ve Švýcarsku, Okno dokořán or Frankfurtský Kurýr) and more intellectually oriented titles with a strong author background such as Text and Listy which are in focus here.
