what was going on when czechoslovakia was under soiet control?

Question

restrictions and peoples lives

Answer 1

Ah, I remember the Prague Spring, a moment of freedom and hope, before the leash was tightened again. The intro pieces in particular, but don't pass up the freedom and hope parts. Ota Sik's ideas to allow reasonable privatization, Novotny's rejection, Dubcek implementing reforms--qualified expertise would trump decisions made by politicians on political whim or powerplay.
