The Civic Democratic Alliance (Czech: Občanská demokratická aliance, ODA) is a small, almost defunct liberal party in the Czech Republic, currently led by Jiřina Nováková. It has one senator. This is a list about liberalism and political parties around the world. ...


History

ODA was established in 1991 by a group of intellectuals as a conservative-liberal party, based on ideas often expressed in The Salisbury Review. The other motive was personal antipathy to Václav Klaus and his party ODS. Initially ODA was able to gain the support of cca 6% of voters, obtain seats in parliament and be part of government. 1991 (MCMXCI) is a common year starting on Tuesday of the Gregorian calendar. ... The Salisbury Review is a conservative UK magazine, published quarterly. ...

ODs can also mean (drug) Czech: Občanská demokratická strana - abbreviation: ODS) is a eurosceptic, right-wing political party in the Czech Republic. ...


After its initial success ODA suffered from corruption scandals and the incompetence of its leaders. Not being able to keep the support of voters, it was steadily losing influence and members (even those with a seat in parliament).


Today the party has tiny support from the electorate (well below 1%) and is burdened with huge debt. Attempts to merge with another party or parties to form a strong liberal group have thus far failed (as of 2004).

The democratic elements, led by President Eduard Benes, hoped the Soviet Union would allow Czechoslovakia the freedom to choose its own form of government and aspired to a Czechoslovakia that would act as a bridge between East and West.
Civic Forum found, however, that although it had successfully completed its primary objective--the overthrow of the communist regime--it was ineffectual as a governing party.
In the election of June 1992, Klaus's Civic Democratic Party won handily in the Czech lands on a platform of economic reform.
