The diploma thesis provides an in depth overview of Czech exile in Mexico during the Second World War. Initially the text describes the political and social situation in Europe and Mexico during the 1930's and 1940's and elucidates the reasons leading to emigration. In the following part the subject matter of exiled Czechs is characterised, especially regarding Czech authors writing in German. The last chapter maps the communities of expat and their activity in aid of the Czechoslovak resistance movement; provides a detailed description of the Czechoslovak-Mexican Association and finally presents the stories of several exiles who were forced to leave Czechoslovakia during the Second World War.
