Significant others and the importance of ancestry for Czech national identity

Vlachová, Klára. 2019. „Significant others and the importance of ancestry for Czech national identity“. National Identities. 21 (1): 57-72. ISSN 1460-8944. Dostupné z: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14608944.2017.1362378

Nations are viewed as metaphorical families having common ancestors. Czechs, for example, share the legend about a forefather Čech who brought his people into Czechia. Analysing the Czech ISSP 2013 data we examine how the importance of having Czech descent depends on Christian denomination, openness towards immigration, perceived commonality with ‘significant Others’, foreign-born parents, and socio-demographics. Results of the analysis suggest that Czech ancestry is less important part of national identity among younger cohorts, people living in big cities and towns, descendants of foreign-born parents, and people who are in favour of immigration from poor countries outside the EU.
