More than 75 years have passed since the death of the third Czechoslovak president, Dr. Emil Hácha. He died while awaiting trial in the Pankrác prison hospital, only to be buried in a private ceremony in the Vinohrady cemetery in an unmarked grave as a reprehensible collaborator and traitor to the nation. It was only after the Velvet Revolution that he was at least partially rehabilitated, but the disputes about his personality continue and flared up again, for example on the occasion of the anniversary of his death. But can they ever be decided definitively and fairly? And what do these discussions say about today and about ourselves?
