The Eastern European countries, which had come under the full control of the USSR, began to take steps towards producing relatively more independent policies since the 1960s. Since January 1968, Czechoslovakia, under the leadership of Alexander Dubcek, the First Secretary of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia (CPC), also moved towards socialism in a more original way in accordance with its own social dynamics.
