Civic Movement (Czech: Občanské hnutí, OH) was a liberal political party based in the Czech Republic. It existed in 1991-1996. The party was established after Civic Forum split: OH was established by the liberal wing of Civic Forum, while the conservative wing established the Civic Democratic Party.[2] Jiří Dienstbier was elected leader of Civic Movement. The party participated in the 1992 legislative election but failed to reach the required 5% threshold and was left without parliamentary representation. The party then renamed itself Free Democrats.[3] The party merged with the Czech National Social Party in 1996.[4][5] Some former members of OH later established Party for the Open Society.
