Aspekty odpovědnosti archivářů a badatelů při nakládání s osobními údaji v archiváliích

The text summarises the development of archive legislation in Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic regarding the rules for making archival records available, recapitulates the development of one particular case that came to the Constitutional Court and posed a potential threat to a number of Czech archives and to the research on the most recent history in general. It deals with the issue of lustration and the problems with working with the files of the former security forces, which are a very specific source. The author also considers the relationship between archivists and historians and their responsibilities and tasks in relation to the public.
