Exploring the aftermath of World War II in Czech society, this study reveals how communist leaders effectively shaped public discourse about the nation's history, including the interwar period and the war experiences. It highlights unexpected support for communism from Protestant sectors and examines the political struggles with democratic socialists and Catholics. Through an analysis of contemporary publications, the author challenges conventional narratives of the communist rise to power, offering insights into the interplay between war, social change, and the role of intellectuals in shaping public opinion.
