Using the authentic material (publicistic texts, radio and TV programmes, fiction etc.) and with regard to the general changes in the situation of Czech language from 1948 to 1989 the course analyses the main development processes - whether the processes stimulated by extralinguistic factors or the imanent development processes that have their roots in language structure. All the linguistic facts are being presented in wider context of cultural, economical and political development of the socialistic Czechoslovakia.
