This monograph traces the history of the dissident as a
transnational phenomenon, exploring Soviet dissidents in Communist
Central Europe from the mid-1960s until 1989. It argues that our
understanding of the transnational activist would not be what it is
today without the input of Central European oppositionists and ties
the term to the global emergence and evolution of human rights. The
book examines how we define dissidents and explores the association
of political resistance to authoritarian regimes, as well as the
impact of domestic and international recognition of the dissident
figure. Turning to literature to analyse the meaning and impact of
the dissident label, the book also incorporates interviews and
primary accounts from former activists. Combining a unique
theoretical approach with new empirical material, this book will
appeal to students and scholars of contemporary history, politics
and culture in Central Europe.
