The article offers an analysis of the status of the members of the Slovene community in Croatia with special focus on their participation in public political life. Their inclusion into public ...political life is highly important for the status of the minority. Slovenes in Croatia are well known to be apolitical, refusing to publicly identify themselves as members of the Slovene minority. Their lack of activity in politics contributes to their less favourable status, manifested above all in the acquisition of certain rights.
Abstract This article illustrates the socioeconomic background of rural political discontent in the post-imperial Yugoslav border region Prekmurje. The author argues that during the post-Habsburg ...political transition and ensuing social transformation, the fundamental lack of loyalty to the Yugoslav state among an important segment of the rural population of Prekmurje was rooted in insufficient access to food. Documents of court proceedings, official state reports, and findings of individuals with deep understandings of the situation on the ground reveal that this rural political mobilization was not so much a reflection of Hungarian propaganda or a “lack of appropriate national identification” among the local population—although, of course, these two factors cannot be ignored in a contested and linguistically and ethnically diverse region—but rather an outcome of the impoverishment of large sections of the peasant population.
V prispevku je analiziran položaj pripadnikov slovenske skupnosti na Hrvaškem, pri čemer je predvsem izpostavljen njihov položaj v javnem političnem življenju. Vključenost v javno politično življenje ...pripadnikov slovenske skupnosti na Hrvaškem je izjemno pomembna za sam položaj manjšine. Slovenci na Hrvaškem so znani kot zelo apolitični, nasploh se neradi izpostavljajo kot pripadniki slovenske manjšine. Njihova neaktivnost v politiki vpliva na slabši položaj pripadnikov slovenske manjšine, to pa se kaže predvsem pri pridobivanju določenih pravic.
By using the explorative research approach of semi-structured interviews, indicators that influence students' language acquisition in a multilingual environment could be determined. Moreover, ways of ...second language teaching implementation in different organizational forms of the minority school system in Carinthia/Koroška are presented. In this article, scientific methods and instruments will be presented as well as the respective content and the target group. An analysis of the linguistic socialization in mono-and multilingual families is explored, as well as partial fields of emotional connectedness to a specific language. Furthermore, dimensions of motivation to learn more languages will be addressed. Connections between the above-mentioned categories will be identified and interpreted.
In Art Work , Katja Praznik counters the Western understanding of art – as a passion for self-expression and an activity done out of love, without any concern for its financial aspects – and instead ...builds a case for understanding art as a form of invisible labour. Focusing on the experiences of art workers and the history of labour regulation in the arts in socialist Yugoslavia, Praznik helps elucidate the contradiction at the heart of artistic production and the origins of the mystification of art as labour.
This profoundly interdisciplinary book highlights the Yugoslav socialist model of culture as the blueprint for uncovering the interconnected aesthetic and economic mechanisms at work in the exploitation of artistic labour. It also shows the historical trajectory of how policies toward art and artistic labour changed by the end of the 1980s. Calling for a fundamental rethinking of the assumptions behind Western art and exploitative labour practices across the world, Art Work will be of interest to scholars in East European studies, art theory, and cultural policy, as well as to practicing artists.
Slovenski književnik Janez Trdina dio je svojega života proveo na hrvatskim prostorima. Svoje je uspomene na to razdoblje objavio u knjizi Bachovi Husari i ilirci: sjećanja iz mojih profesorskih ...godina u Hrvatskoj.
U radu se promatraju hrvatsko-slovenski odnosi na hrvatskim prostorima u razdoblju Bachovog apsolutizma, na temelju Trdininih sjećanja u prvom redu opisanih u navedenoj knjizi. U promatranom periodu Trdina piše o aktualnom stanju u školstvu i državnim službama uopće, o stanju u društvu, ali i identitetima istaknutih Slovenaca i Hrvata te njihovom međusobnom odnosu. Analizom opisanih odnosa može se zaključiti da je jedna od temeljnih Trdininih preokupacija usmjerenost na jezičnu problematiku koja se očituje u naglašenoj germanizaciji, te u načinima na koje slovensko i hrvatsko stanovništvo na nju odgovara. Ovisno o tome kako pojedinci, Slovenci i Hrvati, pristupaju navedenoj problematici, donose se zaključci o identitetima tih pojedinaca koji ukazuju na identitet cijelog svojeg naroda. Polazeći i od činjenice da svako književno djelo pretpostavlja implicitnu publiku s kojom autor komunicira, zaključci rada utemeljeni na temelju teorije recepcije ukazuju na to da je nacionalno pitanje u promatranom periodu Bachovog apsolutizma bilo izrazito važno za slavenski puk koji je živio na hrvatskim prostorima, ali su ipak prisutne razlike u percepciji jezičnih pitanja i pitanja javnih službi kada se promatraju prevladavajući stavovi Slovenaca i Hrvata.
Iako je promatrano djelo Janeza Trdine, kao i njegova autobiografija, subjektivni doživljaj određenog povijesnog razdoblja, iz njegovih se svjedočanstava može rekonstruirati specifičnosti Trdininog identiteta kao Slovenca koji je živio i djelovao n a hrvatskim prostorima u vrijeme german i z a c i j e i s t r u janja ilirskih ideja. Kao književnik,
koji je svjestan utjecaja što ga književnost može imati na književnu publiku,
svojim je radovima nastojao potaknuti što veći broj ljudi na promišljanje aktualnog
stanja na hrvatskim prostorima, te je ostavio književni dokument koji, osim njegovoga
života, može rasvijetliti i dio povijesti kojem je Trdina svjedočio.
The development of the textile industry in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes in the 1920s was primarily marked by the opening of numerous factories. They were opened with the participation of ...domestic and foreign capital and their number increased from 25 in 1919 to 290 in 1929. The "Šumadija" ad factory was founded in 1928 and was the successor of the Albala Knitwear Factory. It was created by the combined investment of domestic, mostly Jewish and foreign capital. The factory operated from 1928 to 1944, when it was completely taken over by the "Posavina" factory. The majority owners of the Factory were the Albala brothers and the Gadol brothers. The paper presents data on the establishment and operation of the Factory from 1928 to 1944, its ownership structure and management bodies, based mostly on archival material.
