Socialist-modernism and Brutalism played a major role in post-war reconstruction of Czechoslovakia. They first appeared in mid-1960s to the late 1980s representing a modern socialist vision and a break from Socialist Realism. After the Second World War, Czechoslovakia became part of the Eastern Bloc. Everyday life transitioned to a centrally planned economy, heavy industries, and urbanization increased. The era celebrated the life of the working class. Art, literature, media, and socialist architecture were used by state as propaganda tools to emphasize and control socialist policies and ideas.[1][2]
