Kniha původně vyšla ve Spojených státech pod titulem The Long Road to Victory: A History of Czechoslovak Exile Organizations after 1968 (Boulder (Colorado) - New York, East European Monographs - Columbia University Press 2012). Raškova práce je podle recenzenta výsledkem pečlivého zkoumání osobních sbírek a pramenů v archivech v České republice, Velké Británii, Spojených státech a Itálii. Jedná se o unikátní shrnující studii, jež přichází s řadou zajímavých zjištění o dosud málo známé exilové kapitole československých dějin. Autor v devíti kapitolách seznamuje s „druhým dechem“ československého exilu, tedy se spolky, organizacemi a osobnostmi, které měly silné slovo v exilové veřejnosti po roce 1968, poté co na Západě přibyla další masivní vlna uprchlíků z Československa, vypuzená vpádem vojsk Varšavské smlouvy. Recenzovaná práce sice v tomto směru nepokrývá úplné exilové spektrum, představuje však mimořádně užitečnou příručku., The book under review is a Czech translation of The Long Road to Victory: A History of Czechoslovak Exile Organizations after 1968 (Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, distributed by Columbia UP, 2012). Raška´s work is, according to the reviewer, the result of careful research using personal papers and other archival documents in the Czech Republic, Great Britain, the United States, and Italy. It is a unique comprehensive work that offers much that is new and of interest, concerning a little known chapter in the history of Czechs and Slovaks in exile. In nine chapters, the author acquaints us with Czechoslovak life in exile, that is, clubs, organizations, and individuals, after they had caught their second wind, and were listened to by other exiles after 1968, once the West had received the large wave of Czechoslovak refugees driven out of their country by the Warsaw Pact military intervention. Although the book under review does not, in that sense, cover the full range of exiles and their activities, it remains an extraordinarily useful work of reference., [autor recenze] Martin Nekola., and Obsahuje bibliografii a bibliografické odkazy

The subject of the study is the analysis of two arguments that have appeared in the Czech-Slovak philosophical setting in the context of discussions about the moral evaluation of research into stem cells of human embryos. We have presented various reasons (varied understandings of potentiality and the vagueness of the expression “living human body”), on the basis of which we must reject the argument of P. Volek concerning the unconditional protection of each human zygote. With respect to the argument of A. Doležal, D. Černý a T. Doležal, we have shown that their critique of the conception of non-individuality of the early human embryo relies on the identification of the concept of the “individual” with the concept “particular” which, for ontological reasons, cannot be accepted. In both of the analysed bioethical arguments the key role of metaphysical concepts and conceptions is easily demonstrated., Peter Sýkora., and Obsahuje poznámky a bibliografii
The article represents a probe to the godparenting ties in the parish Hlinsko (former region of Chrudim) at the middle of the seventeenth century from the social-religious point of view. On the basis of the analysis of the register of baptisms from the years 1645 to 1650 and the subsequent combination with the Register of subjects according to their religion from the year 1651 it was possible to ascertain the social position of godparents, their religious affiliation (as contrasted to the denomination of parents of the child), the frequency of participation of godparents in baptisms and other facts that contributed to the functioning of the confessionally divided Czech village society of the Early Modern Era., Ladislav Nekvapil., and Obsahuje bibliografii
