O boljševizmu (1920-1921) - zabranjeni Masarik

Tomas Masaryk (1850-1937) was the first president of the Czechoslovak Republic, but in addition to his political and statesmanship successes, he also achieved notable results as a philosopher and political theorist. As a philosopher, he was a rationalist and humanist, religious, but also anticlerical, an opponent of conservatism, Marxism, communism and the Soviet Union. In real politics, he was a supporter of Anglo-Saxon democracy, quiet and hard work and passive political resistance. During the annexation crisis of 1909, the "father of Czechoslovakia" defended the rights of Serbs and Croats, and it was largely due to his merit that Emperor Franz Joseph was forced to pardon and release Serbs accused of treason against the Habsburg Monarchy, in a staged Zagreb trial, during which serious accusations were also made against the Kingdom of Serbia.

Masaryk's theoretical outlook and practical political experience led him to the conclusion that the democratic nation-state is the most familiar form of social organization and a relatively reliable means both for the development of democracy in the country and for the defense of identity and independence, especially of small nations. In previous decades, our public, for obvious reasons, knew little about the political ideas and activities of Tomasz Masaryk, especially about his criticism of left-wing totalitarianism. They arose in significantly different circumstances than today, which seemed to be overlooked by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, also one of the most significant fighters against Stalinism, who said towards the end of his life: I thought we were fighting Stalinism, but it seems that we are fighting Russia.
