| Popis | The research draws on an analysis of specific court decisions and archival materials that demonstrate how the regime enforced control over social life and individual sexuality. Legislation of moral offenses served not only to punish individual acts but also to reinforce authoritarian control over the private lives of citizens, resulting in the restriction of personal freedoms and the strengthening of patriarchal values. This study focuses on the broader social implications of these practices, which were an integral part of a political strategy and ideological framework aimed at controlling not only the public but also the private lives of citizens, maintaining traditional gender roles, and thereby ensuring the stability of the communist regime. Overall, this paper provides a deeper insight into the legal, social, and gender aspects of the punishment of moral offenses in communist Czechoslovakia, showing how these laws and their application shaped individuals lives and contributed to the maintenance of power structures. |
