In particular, it provides an in-depth analysis of the relationship between French and Italian socialist parties, on one side, and the political movements of opposition in the Eastern countries. The research will give some food for thought about the idea of the 1970s as a cleavage in the history of international relations, concerning new forms of politics.

Kolář, Pavel This essay seeks to raise the question of how the Prague Spring and its suppression mattered for the subsequent history of the European Left. Did its defeat, by allegedly expelling any genuinely democratic socialism into the realm of utopia, contribute to the overall decline of leftwing militancy? Within this problematic, I first touch upon the conceptual pair of ‘illusion’ and ‘disillusion’ that has significantly shaped the post-1968 discourse on the Left. Second, I suggest a perspective on the Prague Spring (and on waning socialism in general) that draws on the recent debates on the importance of melancholia and mourning for the history of socialism. Can the sense of loss have a productive, transformative effect? I conclude by proposing several aspects of socialism’s decline, considering how the Tue, 01 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT http://elea.unisa.it/xmlui/handle/10556/4460 2019-01-01T00:00:00Z http://elea.unisa.it/xmlui/handle/10556/4459 L’eco della Primavera di Praga nella produzione letteraria samizdat: il caso dei Fejetony Mella, Stefania To commemorate the Prague Spring, the Czech writer and journalist Ludvík Vaculík (1926- 2015) decided in 1968 to devote a short prose text (fejeton) to the real spring season and to the metaphorical one, which would be written in a systematic manner starting from 1975, every year, almost always in the month of March. These texts allow the author to express his thoughts in an acute, ironic, but at the same time also funny or angry way, intertwining observations on the awakening of nature with the political events, cultural and personal current, as well as memories of his childhood through the democratic years of the First Republic, in a beautiful and colorful literary collage with a strong emotional impact. Within the submerged literary world the importance of Vaculik’s work was such that it gave rise to epigonal contributions by numerous authors.
