| Frustrations attending East/West feminist dialogs in the early days of post-socialism were particularly visible in the Czech Republic. English-language publications explained why Czechs were not going to accept feminism easily, despite the growth of new gender studies centers. This article explores the works of three scholars, who participated in these discussions; sociologist Marie Cermakova, philosopher and sociologist Hana Havelkova, and sociologist Jirina Siklova. It argues that in the early to mid-90s, Czech gender scholars' explanations of why feminism was inappropriate in the Czech context reproduced state narratives of family and gender relations from the interwar and socialist era. Feminist writings from Western Europe and the US often make explicit the contrast between state agendas and womenÄs lives. Czech narratives of past experiences with the state, however, served as a framework for navigating the early post-socialist era | |
