Sokolsky exil jako p irozeny d sledek podstaty sokolství [Sokol exile as a real consequence of the Sokol essence]

Leto ní rok je jubilejním devadesátym rokem zalo ení eskoslovenské republiky. Je to doba, kdy je vhodné vzpomenout událostí, které jsou historicky vyznamné. Pat í mezi ně i exilové hnutí, které je spojeno s několika etapami tohoto vyvoje. Vyznamnou sou ástí exilového hnutí byl i sokolsky exil, do kterého se zapojilo velké mno ství len Sokola. Nebyla to náhoda, ale logické vyústění sokolské "ideologie", logické vyústění filozofie, na jejím základě sokolská organizace díky Tyr ovi vznikla.
