Summary/Abstract: Czechs are by definition more western and European(although not necessarily pro-European), more democratic, more liberal, wealthier and more emancipated than other Central Europeans. This megalomania,to a great extent, contributed to the success of the Czech transformation. Yet, these advantages also represent a paradox of the Czech myth.
