Contributions to the History of Psychology: XCVI. Psychology in Communist and Postcommunist Czechoslovakia: Toward a Synthesis

In psychology, the effects of the anti-Communist “Velvet Revolution” of November, 1989 were profound, complex, and for the most part positive. Our initial communication in 1990 stressed the need to replace “the old structures” in a variety of psychological institutions and organs. Subsequent partial accounts represented conference reports (Hoskovec & Brožek, 1992; Hoskovec, Kováč, & Brožek, in press). Here, following comment on prior history, we cover several aspects of the developments through 1992: teaching and learning, research institutions, publications (with special reference to journals), professional associations, and psychological services.
