Norma jako morální nástroj: Veřejné zostuzení a
aplikace dodávkového práva na Náchodsku (1950–1952)
Norm as a Moral Instrument: Public Shaming and Application of the Agricultural
Delivery Law in the Náchod Region (1950–1952)
Historický časopis, 2025, 73, 4, pp. 815-837, Bratislava
Abstract: This article explores the relationship between state-imposed
agricultural delivery norms and their practical application in the everyday
lives of rural inhabitants in the Náchod region during the years 1950 to 1952.
The main focus lies on the language and discourse of local newspapers especially
the periodical Nová brázda as a tool of social pressure that effectively
substituted for formal legal proceedings. Based on qualitative analysis of
several dozen articles, the study demonstrates that public shaming of socalled „non-deliverers“
(individuals who failed to deliver milk, meat, or eggs) functioned as a
distinctive form of quasi-judicial practice. The goal was not only to enforce
delivery quotas, but also to morally discipline the community. The newspaper
frequently assumed the role of investigator, judge, and executor often without
any legal framework, but under the guise of higher social purpose. The article
also traces the shift in rhetorical style between 1950 and 1952: from
individualized admonishments to an institutionalized propaganda tool of
collectivization. The study thus contributes to the discussion of how legal
norms in rural Czechoslovakia were implemented not only through legal
instruments, but also via cultural and political practices.
Keywords: Deliveries. Quasi-judicial practice. Collectivization. Nová
brázda. Public shaming. Náchod region, 1950–1952. Rural press. Normative
pressure.
