The chapter focuses on the interaction between government and opposition in the Czech Parliament and provides insights into the functioning of fragmented politics – divided opposition and weak government. Drawing on the example of the economic crisis, the chapter explains the variation in behavior of both types of parliamentary opposition. The behavior of permanent opposition on austerity and budget is adversarial and along ideological lines, rejecting these measures. The mainstream opposition is exhibiting a more nuanced behavior, shifting between consensual and adversarial behavior.
