After the demise of Stalinism, Czechoslovak intellectuals within the Communist Party realized that the primary challenge they faced wasn't merely the further development of socialism, which would lead to communism, but that they needed to reformulate the entire socialist project. These intellectuals gradually abandoned the Marxist orthodoxy of their time and began searching for new interpretations of classic Marxist works that would provide an adequate conceptual framework for addressing contemporary problems. Mervart and Růzička present post-Stalinist thought as an autonomous sphere, showing a world of varying socialist visions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJan Mervart (Author) \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eJan Mervart \u003c\/b\u003eis a researcher at the Institute of Philosophy, Czech Academy of Sciences.
