V originále

In recent years, the left side of the political spectrum of the Czech and Slovak Party Systems has undergone a series of changes. In Czechia, the main anti-establishment party, ANO, has shifted its economic program to integrate more interventionist policies, while in Slovakia, the main social-democratic party, SMER, continued moving towards more conservative social stances. The result was the CSSD losing voters in Czechia and the opening of a space for a new, more moderate left-wing party in Slovakia, which Hlas soon occupied. By exploring the first two layers of Maier’s conceptualisation of a political cleavage (societal attitudes and socio-demographic base) in the present paper will be hypothesised the possibility for more socially liberal and economically left-wing parties to emerge in the two countries or whether the existing Social Democratic ones could be incentivised to re-brand themselves and moving closer to the “New Left” ideological lines.
