Model středoevropského typu středověkého státu jako interpretační problém české a polské medievistiky
The Central European Medieval State Model as an Interpretative Problem of Polish and Czech Medieval History Studies

Summary/Abstract: The paper aims to present both complex nature and multiple origins of deepseated conflict with reference to validity of Central European medieval state model. The author emphasizes that the discussion on early medieval forms of state on territories of contemporary Czech Republic, Moravia, Poland, Slovakia or Hungary may be continued only on international scholarly forum that eliminates all socio-political factors (see Feyerabend) influencing the development of scientific theory and method. The origin of narrative framework for understanding and creating the Central European medieval state model should be linked with Polish authors. In contemporary Polish historiography that issue is being raised again. Thus we may expect that return of that subject of research would provide us a wider framework for scientific cooperation between Polish and Czech medieval history studies.
