CESTA PREZIDENTA BENEŠE NA SLOVENSKO V ROCE 1936 A JEJÍ OHLAS V ČESKÉM A SLOVENSKÉM TISKU

The study describes the visit of President Beneš to Slovakia in 1936 and the re-actions to it on the pages of the Czech and Slovak press. It considers not only the immediate reactions and editorials, but also attempts to capture the often different perceptions of the importance of the Slovak problem among the Czech and Slovak public. The analysis of the responses to the President’s visit help to elucidate Beneš’s views on the Slovak question, especially in relation to the wide spectrum of his supporters and opponents.
