The history of XVth-century Prague is a history of conflicts, and these conflicts fundamentally influenced the lives of most of the inhabitants of Prague's Old and New Town. The causes of communal conflicts were rooted in legal, political, social, religious and economic problems. One of the main reasons for the rivalry between the municipalities of the Old and New Town of Prague stemmed from the New Towners' desire to equal the Old Towners in virtually every respect. Political and power reasons were behind the rivalry for the privileged position of the Old Town Hall on the political map of the Kingdom of Bohemia. The aim of this book, therefore, is to show that the nature of communal disputes does not differ much between the Middle Ages and our present day, as it stems from the very nature of urban existence.
