In an interview with Gazeta.pl, Karolina Ćwiek-Rogalska and Lidia Raś discuss issues related to the displacement of German and German-speaking populations from Czechoslovakia after World War II. They cover the so-called “wild expulsions” that occurred before the Potsdam Agreement, as well as the later, more organized phases of forced displacement. Our PI attempts to explain the reasons for these displacements, highlighting how public opinion became increasingly radicalized and how social and political attitudes evolved, especially in the context of the communist takeover in Czechoslovakia in 1948.Karolina also discusses the historical context of Czech-German relations, dating back to the 19th century when there was a significant German presence in the Czech lands. She briefly mentions the similarities between the forced displacements in Poland and Czechoslovakia, which are also studied in our project. She points out that the Polish and Czechoslovak governments exchanged experiences at official platforms regarding the organization of both the expulsions and the resettlements.
