Abstract
The purpose of this work is to introduce the reader to people whose lives have only been of marginal interest to modern historiographers. It portrays the formation of personal stories of people who live on the edges of society.
The narrators are people who were older than 18 years in 1989 and who have personally experienced homelessness after the Velvet Revolution. Homelessness is explored as a public phenomenon appearing alongside the transformation of the Czech Republic.
The research is based primarily on the oral history method with currently homeless people.
